	* python/_dbus.py: Add WeakReferenceDictionary cache of dbus.Bus
	instances to stop madness of creating new instances representing
	the same bus connection all the time, rendering any tracking of
	match rules and bus names quite meaningless. Caught a bug where
	the private argument to SessionBus() and friends was being passed
	in as use_default_mainloop by mistake. Still some problems with
	multiple dbus_binding.Connection instances representing the same
	low-level connection (eg when you use both SessionBus() and
	StarterBus() in same process), but it's a lot better now than it
	was.

	* python/dbus_bindings.pyx: Add constants with the return values
	for bus_request_name().

	* python/service.py: Store bus name instances in a per-dbus.Bus cache
	and retrieve the same instances for the same name, so deletion can be
	done with refcounting. Also now throws some kind of error if you
	don't actually get the name you requested, unlike previously...

	* test/python/test-client.py: Add tests for instance caching of buses
	and bus name objects.
