Public bug reported:

[Impact]
On 16.04+ if you using upstart as your primary init system "enabled" services 
that _only_ have upstart scripts fail to start with invoke-rc.d (with a default 
policy). This is problematic as #DEBHELPER# tokens in maintscripts rely on 
invoke-rc.d to start/stop services and fail to start services on installation.

[Test Case]
Boot into affected system with upstart as default init.
Try starting an 'upstart only' service with 'invoke-rc.d service start'.
It is expected this should work.

[Regression Potential]
14.04/upstart behavior is that invoke-rc.d works, and 16.04/systemd also has 
invoke-rc.d start working with enabled services and default policy. 
16.04/upstart should be the same.
