This is useful when using certain D-Bus services where the
PropertiesChanged signal does not include the property value such as
e.g. various systemd mechanisms, see e.g.

Since it is valid for a D-Bus interface / service to add new methods,
signals or properties we must NEVER warn about unknown properties or
drop unknown signals or disallow unknown method invocations when we
have an expected interface.
So this means that the expected_interface machinery is only useful for
checking that the service didn't break ABI.
Also update the docs so it is clear exactly what it means to have an
expected interface.

Things compile and the test-suite passes. Still need to hook up
gio.symbols and docs. There are still a bunch of TODOs left in the
sources that needs to be addressed.
