system-update-generator: accept a dangling symlink

The offline update mechanism is explicitly designed to work with a
separate /var. systemd-update-generator is supposed to run early,
before filesystems are mounted, so it cannot check if the
/system-update symlink actually points to anything.

The update is run *after* filesystems are mounted, so it should be
able to access the target of the symlink without trouble.
