[PR #7378/d7bb8648 backport][stable-7] redhat_subscription: fix D-Bus option for consumer type on older distros (#7384)

redhat_subscription: fix D-Bus option for consumer type on older distros (#7378)

subscription-manager 1.29.32 renames the "type" D-Bus registration
option to "consumer_type"; this means that the right option must be
passed according to the distro type & version.

Copy the same approach done for environments, tweaking the version
needed: this change is found in RHEL 9.2+ and supported Fedora versions.
