No, I don't think the MbimDevice shouldn't track anything. If the
device sends indications when it is not supposed to do it, then the
MbimDevice should just emit them anyway. But, when using the MbimProxy
in between we do need to have this tracking to know to which clients
to forward the indications to.

Note that the proxy will need to build a
MBIM_CID_DEVICE_SERVICE_SUBSCRIBE_LIST combined with all the
indications expected by all clients, plus maintain which indication is
enabled/disabled by each client. If the modem receives an indication
which wasn't enabled by any client, we should also then forward it to
the MbimDevice anyway, so that we keep the same behavior with or
without proxy.
