  bluetooth.service: Fix ConfigurationDirectory warning

When running "systemctl start bluetooth.service" on some systems, this
error would appear:
systemd[8067]: ConfigurationDirectory 'bluetooth' already exists but the mode is different. (File system: 755 ConfigurationDirectoryMode: 555)

ConfigurationDirectoryMode was mistakenly thought to help sandbox the
daemon, but the service configuration already sets ProtectSystem=strict
but "If [ProtectSystem is] set to "strict" the entire file system
hierarchy is mounted read-only", so bluetoothd can't write to
/etc/bluetooth anyway.

Fixes: 00cfb36e20e3 ("bluetooth.service: Set ConfigurationDirectoryMode")
Closes: https://github.com/bluez/bluez/issues/414
