It's been over a year since this was implemented. I propose that we do not
block undrafting it on dramatically changing the way Telepathy works.

Here are two branches. The first just adds the contact ID as a separate struct
member in the result map, rather than hiding it as a fake vCard field. The
second removes handles from the interface entirely and just keys the map with
identifiers.

I vaguely prefer the second one. Both of these break the API, but I haven't
bumped it to DRAFT3 because, honestly, we should just insta-undraft it.
