That's what this patchset does (`systemctl preset-all`), or rather it
builds images without /etc/machine-id which triggers systemd to do it.

Once I'm done you should be able to install preset files which then
determine what gets enabled/disabled, the only real question I've got
is if we should always do this at image build time, or leave it for
first boot and let systemd do it (on read-write images at least).

Personally, if I needed it fixing right now, I'd probably add a hack
during rootfs build to put the symlinks in the right place.
