Details:

This patch adds simple dbus support to duplicity.  It does two things right
now: signal when a new duplicity instance is created and signal when a fatal
error occurs.

In addition to the patch, there are three new files:

duplicity/dbus_iface.py: Actual dbus interaction.  Methods become no-ops if
dbus is not available.

testing/dbustest.py: A couple unit tests.  Requires dbus bindings and Python
2.4 (I couldn't find a way to do what I needed without the subprocess
module).

DBUS-README: A description of the API suitable for dropping in the toplevel
source directory.


One not-strictly-related thing I did was change the return value of duplicity
when --help is passed from 1 to 0.  I felt like that was a more sensible
return value since no error occurred.  And it meant that all non-zero return
values were encapsulated in log.FatalError.
