Title:
  systemd-run does not make the new scope unit part of the slice
  specified via the --slice arg

Status in systemd:
  Unknown
Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [impact]

  running 'systemd-run --scope --slice=$SLICE $PROGRAM' does not start
  the program under $SLICE, instead it starts it under system.slice

  [test case]

  root:~# systemd-run --scope --slice=user-1000.slice sleep 1000
  Running scope as unit run-r16d872f1b0894b88a79421a890269e6c.scope.
  ^Z
  [3]+  Stopped                 systemd-run --scope --slice=user-1000.slice sleep 1000
  root:~# bg
  [3]+ systemd-run --scope --slice=user-1000.slice sleep 1000 &
  root:~# systemctl show -p Slice run-r16d872f1b0894b88a79421a890269e6c.scope
  Slice=system.slice

  [regression potential]

  This defers running the manager unit load queue when setting the slice
  for a transient unit, as well as actually passing the slice parameter
  over the bus when using --scope, so any regression would very likely
  involve incorrectly setting the slice for a scope and/or problems when
  processing transient units that specify a slice.

  [scope]

  this is needed only for Xenial.

  this is fixed upstream by
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3094
  which is included starting in v230, so is included in Bionic and later.
