dbus-java bindings release

[Matthew Johnson]

I have made a release of the D-Bus Java bindings, now updated for the
release version of D-Bus and incorporating a lot of other fixes and
changes.

All the major API features are now known to be working and so hopefully
the API should now remain constant.

The release is tagged 1.10 in git:
    git+ssh://git.freedesktop.org/git/dbus/dbus-java
    git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/dbus/dbus-java

or downloadable as a tarball:
    http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-java/libdbus-java-1.10.tar.gz

The changelog is attached and documentation is supplied in the release
or available at http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-java/.

Thanks to everyone who contributed suggestions or code,

Matt
