Things needing fixing:

- consider making it a GObject, with tp_message_destroy a deprecated alias for
g_object_unref?

- make client-side received-message objects read-only? (we still need the set
methods to work client-side while sending a message, though)

- make it use TpVariantMap internally (Bug #30423) and use the dbus-glib escape
hatch to convert to/from dbus-glib GValues when necessary?

- add a tp_message_copy?

- handle refcounting works differently in the CM and in a client

- the client-side version probably wants a small amount of TpContact
interaction?

- also deal with the case of a serialized/deserialized message (use GVariant),
in which handles are no longer meaningful, but string IDs are still useful?
