All fd.o Notifications signals are emitted for a particular notification,
so debugging aside, only the owner of said notification has a legitimate
reason to act on it.
So far we (and other implementations like the old notification-daemon)
have relied on the client-side to properly filter the signals (like
libnotify), but at least the QT implementation is known to not do
that.
Enforce correct client behavior by only emitting the signal to the
original sender.

For fd.o notifications, we are taking the sender's PID into
account when associating notifications with sources (mainly
to deal with notify-send).
This broke when the implementation under the well-known name
was moved into a separate service, as the implementation in
gnome-shell will now always see the public notification-daemon
as sender.
Restore the old behavior by resolving the sender PID in the
separate service, and pass it as hint to the implementation
in gnome-shell.

Add a small service that exposes the Fdo notification API under the
well-known name, and forwards any requests to the actual implementation
in the shell.
That way any app with permission to talk to org.freedesktop.Notifications
will get exactly that, and nothing more.
