32f2e9a85b Bug 621213 – GDBusProxy and well-known names
Allow constructing a GDBusProxy for well-known names as discussed here
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-October/msg00075.html
including test cases.

Make it possible to create a GDBusProxy for a GBusType instead of a
GDBusConnection. This requires G_BUS_TYPE_NONE so add that too.

Nuke g_bus_watch_proxy() since one can now more or less use GDBusProxy
for this.

Port gdbus-example-watch-proxy to this new API and include this
example in the GDBusProxy doc page.

Also nuke the GType parameter from the GDBusProxy constructors as
requested here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=621229

Also update the porting guide and other API docs for this change.

Also fix a bug in the signal dispatching code so each subscriber only
get notified once, not N times, for the same signal. Also add a test
case for this.

2aca3b506a Add single-include guards to new headers
As pointed out by Christian Persch in bug 620173, all the new
gdbus and gsettings headers were missing these.

0e2c708bb2 GDBus: Don't take a GError for g_dbus_proxy_get_cached_property_names()
We stopped doing this for get_cached_property() so no reason to do it
here.

82158afdad GDBus: Catch up with new PropertiesChanged signal
After a long discussion, this has finally been standardized in the
D-Bus spec. See

f909cb5b27 GDBusProxy: Remove error in get_cached_property() and add set_cached_property()
This makes it possible to use the cached properties mechanism even if
constructing the proxy with the DO_NOT_LOAD_PROPERTIES flag.

This is useful for cases where you obtain the and track object
properties out-of-band. For example, in udisks, the plan is to have
something like this

 Manager.GetObjects    (out ao paths, out aa{sa{sv}} all_properties);
 Manager.ObjectAdded   (o path, a{sa{sv}} all_properties);
 Manager.ObjectChanged (o path, a{sa{sv}} all_properties);
 Manager.ObjectRemoved (o path, a{sa{sv}} all_properties);

E.g. the first GetObjects() call will return *all* data about *all*
exported objects. Further, this way a client will only need to listen
these three signals (three AddMatch) on the Manager object and it will
never need to do GetAll() etc (e.g. can use DO_NOT_LOAD_PROPERTIES).

(Of course this only works if the client is interested in all
objects... while this is true for udisks it is generally not true for
other D-Bus services).

Also use expected_interface to check for programming errors.

869b4c6833 GDBus: Use call() instead of invoke_method()
Lots of people been suggesting this. We still use MethodInvocation /
method_invocation for handling incoming method calls so use call()
instead of invoke_method() helps to separate the client and server
facilities. Which is a good thing(tm).

d0a14469d0 Initial GDBus code-drop from GDBus-standalone repo
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.
