dbus-send: Add support for variants to arrays and dictionaries

System Internals / DBus - Frederik Van Bogaert [mind.be] - 23 May 2022 12:15 UTC

Adds support for:
- Arrays of variants
- Dictionaries with variants as keys

Manually tested and confirmed working using dbus-monitor. Example usage:

$ dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.DBus /org/freedesktop/DBus \ com.example.SomeExample dict:string:variant:one,int16:1

In dbus-monitor:

method call time=1652796044.991509 sender=:1.84 -> destination=org.freedesktop.DBus serial=2 path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=com.example; member=SomeExample array [ dict entry( string "one"
variant int16 1 ) ]
