Philip Withnall 0c8f7de55a gdebugcontroller: Add debug controller API and D-Bus implementation
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.

* #GDebugController is an interface to expose control of debugging features and
* debug output.
*
* It is implemented on Linux using #GDebugControllerDBus, which exposes a D-Bus
* interface to allow authenticated peers to control debug features in this
* process.
*
* Whether debug output is enabled is exposed as
* #GDebugController:debug-enabled. This controls g_log_set_debug_enabled() by
* default. Application code may connect to the #GObject::notify signal for it
* to control other parts of its debug infrastructure as necessary.
