    gfdonotificationbackend: Fix possible invalid pointer in dbus callback
    
    The way things were before: a FreedesktopNotification struct is
    allocated before the dbus call, and this same struct is possibly re-used
    for other dbus calls. If the server becomes unavailable, the callback
    will be invoked after the call times out, which leaves a long time where
    other dbus calls can happen, re-using the same FreedesktopNotification
    as user data. When the first call times out, the callback is invoked,
    and the user data is freed. Subsequent calls that used the same user
    data will time out later on, and try to free a pointer that was already
    freed, hence segfaults.
    
    This bug can be reproduced in Cinnamon 3.6.7, as mentioned in:
    <https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/7491>
    
    This commit fixes that by always allocating a new
    FreedesktopNotification before invoking dbus_call(), ensuring that the
    callback always have a valid user data.
