chromeos-dbus-bindings: Add support for STRUCT and typed async methods
The async method handlers in libchromeos have been changed to use
strongly typed response objects. This change mainly changes the
adapter generator to produce the correct signatures for the async
adapter methods.
In the attempt to support existing XML files from shill and
modemmanager I implemented some features that are required there:
1. Allow nested <node> elements (which are still ignored but at
least parsing of XML files doesn't fail.
2. Add support for <tp:docstring> element to extract comments
from interface/method/signal/property definitions and add
then to adaptor/proxy code which should help user to make
sense of method intentions.
3. Added support for STRUCT D-Bus types (...). Now using
std::tuple<> to represent D-Bus structures.
4. a{sv} are converted to chromeos::VariantDictionary instead of
std::map<std::string, chromeos::Any> which is shorter and
being very popular type in D-Bus, makes a few generated
function signatures neater.
5. Added support for "org.freedesktop.DBus.GLib.Async" annotation
to be an alias for "org.chromium.DBus.Method.Kind"="async".
6. Fixed chromeos::string_utils::Split() to eliminate empty
strings if they were created by trimming all-whitespace
elements of the split array.
