[Bug 59024] Think about a more introspectable way of doing mixins

--- Comment #12 from Xavier Claessens <xclaesse at gmail.com> ---
Now that we ported tp-glib to GDBus, it became possible[1] to implement dbus
interfaces using gdbus-codegen skeletons. That means that TpPresenceMixin can
be just like TpBaseContactList[2]: a standalone GObject.

TpPresenceMixin could be turned into an abstract GObject that takes a
TpBaseConnection as construct-only property. It will then create the
gdbus-codegen' skeleton, implement all its stuff, and simply call
tp_dbus_object_add_skeleton(base_connection, presence_skeleton);

We only have 3 mixins, How Hard Can It Be?™
