Subject: [PATCH] Revert "shared/install: create relative symlinks for
 enablement and aliasing"

This reverts commit d6c9411072901556176ac130f2ce71a33107aa93.

I still think this is something that needs to be done, but we're hitting some
unexplained failures, e.g. https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/22920.
So let's revert this for now, so -rc2 can be released, with a plan to return
to this after a release.

Closes #22920.

(cherry picked from commit 9aa3d6b41eadff6634bb3cf800064724171a7aad)

Resolves: #2118668
