When no path is provided for the schema, we have call
g_settings_new() instead of g_settings_new_with_path()
passing a NULL path.
This was crashing the tool on start since an assertion was
recently added to g_settings_new_with_path() to refuse NULL.
We can't search for a larger needle inside of a smaller haystack, and
unsigned integer subtraction tends to result in very large numbers
rather than small ones.
Add a check for this case and abort out immediately.
Also add a test case (lifted directly from the docs) that demonstrates
the problem.
Issue discovered and tracked down by Milan Bouchet-Valat
See https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621838 for the whole
story. The problem was that we ended up reading data from arrays of
arrays when we were just supposed to be aligning the buffers.
Also add a host of debug infrastructure that was needed to find the
root cause. For now it can be turned on only via defining
DEBUG_SERIALIZER. In the future we might want to make it work via
G_DBUS_DEBUG. In a nutshell, the added debug info looks like this

While we are already propagating the error to the user via the
GDBusConnection::disconnected signal (because the only safe thing is
to disconnect the other peer), changes are the user is simply not
listening to this signal.
This should never ever happen unless there's a bug in the
serializaer/deserializer so it's fine to complain via g_warning()
here.
Bug 621838, see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621838

The GType for a GVariant is now a fundamental GType instead of a boxed
one so use the right marshaller.

When asynchronously acquiring the DBus connection, assume a reference to
the proxy object, to avoid destroying it in the middle of the operation.
