Changing the Port directive in sshd_config and restarting ssh.service is without effect, sshd keeps listening to port 22.

Also mentioned in https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/sshd-now-uses-socket-based-activation-ubuntu-22-10-and-later/30189/32

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
2. Change Port directive in /etc/ssh/sshd_config to Port 2233
3. Restart ssh.service
4. Observe sshd still listening to port 22

Expected behaviour: sshd changes port to 2233

Actual behaviour: sshd keeps listening to port 22
