As mentioned previously, lets make the Interface
org.ofono.LocationReporting.

I think we need two additional properties here:

string Device [readonly]
	The device which can be used to obtain the location information

string Type [readonly]
	The type of the device (e.g. nmea)

One thing we can do here is stuff them inside a Settings dictionary
property that is emitted once Powered=True.  This is similar to how
org.ofono.ConnectionContext is implemented.
