[Authentication] Aliases

[Stef Walter]

Attached is a patch which I'm proposing to handle stuff like the
'default' collection or the 'network' collection proposed by Guillaume.

The collection aliases are present under:

/org/freedesktop/secrets/aliases/xxxx

So the default and network collections would be usable via the object
path, in addition to their normal object paths:

/org/freedesktop/secrets/aliases/default
/org/freedesktop/secrets/aliases/network

To manage the aliases, two new methods are added to the Service
interface: ReadAlias() and SetAlias(). BTW, These are not properties on
Collection because a collection can be have multiple aliases pointing to it.

This is somewhat implemented in gnome-keyring's dbus-api branch, but
only the 'default' alias is implemented for now.

Cheers,

Stef
