The dbus specification states that its authentication mechanism is a SASL profile.

Unless (empty) data is provided with the mechanism right away (i.e. AUTH ANONYMOUS ),
SASL compliant authentication responds with a DATA message.
While some dbus implementations do not do this, the sd-bus does as of systemd >=v242-rc1 [0].

This fixes the response in a backward compatible way by sending back an empty DATA message.
