I'd be interested implementing this to simplify empathy-auth-client's code.

Also, if we are going to support the 'password' parameter in next it would be
good to have more helper code in tp-glib.

A sensible name for the TpChannel sub-class could be
TpServerAuthenticationChannel, or maybe TpServerAuthChannel?

As stated in the documentation of
http://telepathy.freedesktop.org/spec/Channel_Interface_SASL_Authentication.html
this API could, in theory, be implemented on a different kind of channel (not
a Type.ServerAuthentication). Should I then implement the SASL API on top of
TpChannel instead of TpServerAuthenticationChannel?
