When we parse properties set via "systemctl set-property" we should validate to the point where the data we pass over the bus makes rough sense, but we shouldn't needlessly check whether specified enum values are among the known enum values. The server side checks that anyway again, and it's kinda nice if an older systemctl can be used to talk to a newer systemd.
