calendar-server: activate evolution-source-registry manually at startup

g_dbus_proxy_new() (and library calls that wrap it) has an hardcoded
timeout of 25 seconds, which is insufficient for starting up e-s-r
in certain setups. Avoid a timeout error by starting the service
manually with a longer timeout before hand.
Also demote the error to a warning + exit failure instead of
a crash, to avoid triggering abrt reports.

evolution-source-registry in certain cases (slow disk, concurrent IO,
many configured sources), so we first ensure that the service
starts with a manual call and a higher timeout.
HACK: every time the DBus API is bumped in e-d-s we need
to update this!
