* configure.in: add DBUS_BINDIR as a #define to C source code.
* tools/dbus-launch.c * tools/dbus-launch.h * tools/dbus-launch-x11.c: * tools/dbus-launch.1: Add the --autolaunch option to dbus-launch, which makes it scan for an existing session started with --autolaunch. With that option, it also creates an X11 window and saves the bus address and PID to it. * dbus/dbus-sysdeps.h: * dbus/dbus-sysdeps-unix.c (_dbus_get_autolaunch_address): Add a function that runs "dbus-launch --autolaunch" to retrieve the running D-Bus session address (or start one if none was running) * dbus/dbus-transport.c: Add the handler for the "autolaunch:" address protocol, which tries to get the running session from dbus-launch. * dbus/dbus-bus.c: * dbus/dbus-internals.h: Make "autolaunch:" be the default D-Bus session bus address. * dbus/dbus-connection.c: Fix horrible typo in error message.
