Making a new patch proposal for this after discussion with Johan.

The patch concerns how dbus timeouts are stopped in obexd in the
functions remove_timeout and timeout_handler_free. Without this patch
it is all done in the latter. Using the patch it is done in both, with
the freeing being made in timeout_handler_free.

The reason for making this modification is that in at least one corner
case it looks to be possible for obexd to dispatch (by
timeout_handler_dispatch) a timeout on which dbus has called
remove_timeout (which is currently empty).

Compared the obexd-dbus mainloop integration with the dbus-glib
implementation at
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus-glib/tree/dbus/dbus-gmain.c

Its corresponding callbacks for obexd's remove_timeout and
timeout_handler_free both do the same thing as far as I understood the
code.

>From the dbus-glib code:

dbus_connection_set_timeout_functions (.., remove_timeout,..)
leading to

remove_timeout ->
connection_setup_remove_timeout ->
timeout_handler_destroy_source ->
g_source_destroy

and
add_timeout -> dbus_timeout_set_data (.., timeout_handler_timeout_freed)
leading to

timeout_handler_timeout_freed ->
timeout_handler_destroy_source ->
g_source_destroy

They both stop the timeout, but do not free the timeout_handler
structure. This is done in timeout_handler_source_finalized which is
set via

g_source_set_callback (.., timeout_handler_source_finalized) in add_timeout.

obexd does not use this kind of finalize callback. Other than this,
the intention is for the patch to map to the dbus-glib implementation
by removing the timer in both callbacks.

(I'm not an expert in dbus nor glib, there could be pitfalls with this
modification)
