A number of fixes/improvements here:
1) Remove casting of getter/setter function types which allows
us to change the prototypes in the future and not have hard-to-find
runtime segfaults
2) Instead of having the getters create a fake reply message which
then gets its arguments copied into the real reply message, and is
then disposed, just pass message iters around and have them add
their arguments to the message itself
3) For setters, just pass in the message iter positioned at the
start of the argument list, instead of each setter having to skip
over the standard interface+property name
4) Convert error handling to use DBusError and return the error
back down through the call stacks to the function that will
actually send the error back to the caller, instead of having a
fake DBusMessage of type DBUS_MESSAGE_TYPE_ERROR that then
needs to have the error extracted from it.
But most of all, this fixes various segfaults (like rh #725517
and #678625) which were caused by some functions deep down in the
getter callpaths wanting a source DBusMessage* when the getters were
used for two things: signals (which don't have a source DBusMessage)
and methods (which will have a source DBusMessage that's being
replied to). This duality made the code fragile when handling
errors like invalid IEs over the air.

Some new code we're working on will require the dbus type "aay" (an
array of arrays of bytes). To add this, refactor the array code to
reduce code duplication by given a type string to the array starting
code, and also add code to create and parse such arrays from or into an
array of struct wpabuf respectively.
Since there's no unique DBus type for this, add a "fake"
WPAS_DBUS_TYPE_BINARRAY type that is separate from the regular DBus
types for parsing.

The array's type should be given as the proper
DBUS_TYPE_STRING_AS_STRING, but evidently it
doesn't matter since it's all packed into a
variant type.

The perror() calls do not make much sense with libdbus functions and
wpa_printf() would really be used for all error printing anyway. In
addition, many of the error messages on out-of-memory cases are not
really of much use, so they were removed. This is also cleaning up
some of the error path handling to avoid duplicated code.
