AFAIK there is no mention of --no-debug mode in polkitd's manpage (actually no option is described there).
This may cause confusion when --no-debug mode is activated and all output goes to /dev/null without any mention in journal.

This can be immensely frustrating to users since there is no mention
whatsoever in the documentation of why their logs are getting eaten.

Fixes polkit-org#154.
