Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] gdbus: add method for immediate property update

g_dbus_emit_property_changed doesn't send dbus signal immediately. Instead
it stores changed properties, and schedule signal to be send at
g_iddle_add. Additionally, if this method is called few times for some
property, only last value will be sent in property changed signal.

If remote device sends lots of notifications, they're all scheduled to be
notified using this method. This might result in some notifications being
lost.

This patch adds new method, that can immediately send property changed
signal, instead of sheduling it for nearest iddle moment.

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] core/gatt-client: fix losing notifications

When notifications are quickly send to BlueZ, it tries to signal that
through dbus using g_dbus_emit_property_changed, which would merge all
changes and schedule sending property changed in g_iddle_add.

If the stream of notifications from device is fast enough, there might be
no iddle moment to send properties changed before next notification
arives, which would result in notifications being lost.

This patch fixes that by using method that sends properties changed
immediately, without waiting for iddle moment.
