sd-bus: fix path of object-manager signals

      Each signal of the ObjectManager interface carries the path of the object
in question as an argument. Therefore, a caller will deduce the object
this signal is generated for, by parsing the _argument_. A caller will
*not* use the object-path of the message itself (i.e., message->path).
This is done on purpose, so the caller can rely on message->path to be
the path of the actual object-manager that generated this signal, instead
of the path of the object that triggered this signal.

This commit fixes all InterfacesAdded/Removed signals to use the path of
the closest object-manager as message->path. 'closest' in this case means
closest parent with at least one object-manager registered.

This fix raises the question what happens if we stack object-managers in
a hierarchy. Two implementations are possible: First, we report each
object only on the nearest object-manager. Second, we report it on each
parent object-manager. This patch chooses the fo
