dispose() needs to go into an "else" branch.

i don't think "supportsService" will work here - it is not a service but
an interface, usually you check that with queryInterface() but since
Python is "dynamically typed" i don't know off-hand what the most
idiomatic way to check for it would be.

but i would assume that all LO application document types implement
XCloseable.
