[patch] Port to DBUS 0.30

[John (J5) Palmieri]

Ok, ran into a huge problem with the way HAL handles devices.  It will
take the UDI and use that as a object path in order to be able to query
those device.  Big problem is that object paths can not have any
characters besides [a-z][A-Z][0-9]_.  Some of the udi's have - and : in
them.  Not sure how we should proceed.
