Every time /proc/self/mountinfo is parsed, a PropertiesChanged signal is sent for remote mounts (NFS, CIFS, etc.).
This is due to unit_add_dependency() being called for each remote mount entry to set up the Before dependency on remote-fs.target.
For existing mounts, this has already be done in the past, so it's not necessary to do this over and over.
This avoids sending bursts of PropertiesChanged messages on systems having many remote mounts (e.g. Openshift deployments).
This is somehow a continuation of PR #15233 (#15233).
