Automatic thread initialisation is one thing. Don't make me call 
dbus_threads_init/dbus_threads_init_default because that breaks the state 
the mutexes and wait-conditions keep. That simple thing will allow QtDBus 
and another binding to work on the same process at the same time.

Add the DBUS_VERSION macro so that I can update the code I create without 
tricky configure-time checks.

Right now, QtDBus will not handle the shared DBusConnection-s. If a 
library or a plugin wants to use those, it must make sure something is 
handling the mainloop integration. I have no solution for this one. And I 
don't plan to make QtDBus handle them anyways. So I'd recommend moving to 
*deprecating* the shared connections completely.
