Bug#887899: overrides for dh_systemd_enable|start are silently ignored in compat 11

Package: debhelper
Version: 11.1.3
Severity: normal

I use the following in network-manager:

override_dh_systemd_start:
       dh_link -pnetwork-manager \
              lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service \
              lib/systemd/system/network-manager.service
       dh_systemd_start -pnetwork-manager --no-also NetworkManager.service

After switching to compat 11, that override was completely ignore. No
symlink was created and the parameters of dh_systemd_start were ignored
afaics.

If this is desired behaviour, dh should bail out, if there is an
override for dh_systemd_enable or dh_systemd_start in compat 11 and the
helpers itelf should bail out as well (in case they are used without dh)
