           Summary: make the default account backend store GVariants on
                    disk

This is part 6 of my account storage megabranch, and the last part for now. It
is a prerequisite for fixing this:

    /* FIXME: this is ridiculous. MC stores the parameters for the account, so
     * it should be able to expose them on D-Bus even if the CM is uninstalled.
     * It shouldn't need to iterate across the parameters supported by the CM.
     * But it does, because MC doesn't store the types of parameters. So it
     * needs the CM (or .manager file) to be around to tell it whether "true"
     * is a string or a boolean…

which I have not actually done yet.

I have not yet tested this without Bug #54874, but it could probably be rebased
away.

I have not yet tested this on live data (Empathy/Shell, rather than the
regression tests) either.
