Change Default of REST D-Bus to OFF
REST D-Bus, while providing useful functionality, also allows
authenticated users access to privileged information that may be above
their permission level. This change sets the default to disabled. Users
if they wish can turn it back on in their own layers.
A lot of functionality previously provided by REST D-Bus is now
available on Redfish with more coming all the time.
Note: phosphor-webui uses the REST D-Bus so a user of that will have to
enable this in their layer. webui-vue, the replacement for
phosphor-webui, uses Redfish. See here [1].
Resolves openbmc/bmcweb/issues/114
