[packagekit] Adding support for "prepare" in transaction_flags

[Matthias Klumpp]

I really liked the suggestion for all stuff like RemovePackages()
InstallPackages() etc. to just enqueue the actions and one new
"Commit()" signal to really apply the changes.
This would solve the issues, but to implement it properly, backend and
frontend APIs would have to be broken, which is not ideal.
