[PATCH] gdbus: Drop message replies if the sender requested no reply

If the sender flags a D-Bus message as not expecting a reply, it is
against system bus policy to send a reply — sending one will result in
errors being sent to us by dbus-daemon.

Magically drop all replies to messages which request no reply.

This is not a complete fix. In an ideal world, the existing check for
G_DBUS_METHOD_FLAG_NOREPLY would be dropped, as the server should be
prepared to return a reply to every method, if the client requests and
expects one — otherwise the client will time out. However, that’s a
much
bigger change with a much bigger risk of breaking things, so I’ll stick
with this for now.
