Title:
  systemctl doesn't respect --dry-run

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  [Expected behaviour]

  When I use the --dry-run flag with systemctl, I would expect it not to
  take any action, but instead print what it is going to do.

  [Actual behaviour]

  Passing --dry-run doesn't affect the behaviour of systemctl.

  [Test case]

  $ systemctl --dry-run reboot

  Ubuntu version: 18.04.1
  systemd version: 237-3ubuntu10.11
