When the application is using its D-Bus backend, it is useful to be able
to export extra D-Bus objects at the right time, i.e. *before* the application
tries to own the bus name. This is accomplished here by adding a hook
in GApplicationClass for this; and a corresponding hook that will be called
on unregistration to undo whatever the register hook did.
Bug #675509.
Provide public access to the GDBusConnect and object path that
GApplication is using. Prevents others from having to guess these
things for themselves based on the application ID.

Clean up the docs for GApplication and related classes.
I'm no longer writing documentation for the structure type of classes
and interfaces. See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665926
for discussin on the correct way forward on this point.
Also: stop putting gtk-doc comments in installed headers.
Rename g_application_set_menu to g_application_set_app_menu and make a
couple of fixups. Clarify the documentation about exactly what this
menu is meant to be.
Add g_application_set_menubar and document that as well.
Like how we're handling activation, use GVariant for timestamps. To
avoid polluting the GtkApplication API with GVariants, we rename the
GApplication signals to "quit-with-data" and "action-with-data".
GtkApplication will then wrap those as just "quit" and "action".

This adds a GApplication object to GIO, which is the core of
an application support class, supporting
- uniqueness
- exporting actions (simple scripting)
- standard actions (quit, activate)
The implementation for Linux uses D-Bus, takes a name on the
session bus, and exports a org.gtk.Application interface.
Implementations for Win32 and OS X are still missing.
