Rather than tracking them with a counter. This should close the race in
tracking the finalisation of the tasks by the task worker thread.
There’s no way to synchronise with that thread as it’s internal to
`g_task_run_in_thread()`.
This should hopefully stop the `debugcontroller` test being flaky.

This allows the controller to explicitly be removed from the bus, in a
way that allows the caller to synchronise with it and know that all
other references to the controller should have been dropped (i.e. after
this method returns, there should be no in-flight D-Bus calls still
holding a reference to the object).
This is needed to be able to guarantee finalisation of the controller in
unit tests (and comparable real-world situations).

Helps: #1190
This is intended to provide a uniform interface for controlling whether
the debug output from an application (or service) is emitted, typically
to journald, but actually to wherever the application chooses to output
it.
The main implementation of `GDebugController` is `GDebugControllerDBus`,
which is intended to be used on Linux. Other implementations may be
added in future for other platforms, or larger applications may want to
provide their own implementation which integrates with their ecosystem.
The `GDebugControllerDBus` implementation exposes a D-Bus interface at
`/org/gtk/Debugging` with a method to enable or disable debug
output at runtime.
This could be used by external harnesses, such as GNOME Builder or
systemd, to give a uniform way to get debug output from an application.
