    fileUtils: Add helper for loading D-Bus XML from resource
    
    Commit dbf993300a moved all inline D-Bus interface descriptions to template
    strings so we can stop escaping line breaks.
    
    Unfortunately that unveiled a grave bug in xgettext, which currently cannot
    handle files that contain both backtick and slash characters - as a result,
    translations from affected files have started to disappear as translators
    run xgettext/msgmerge.
    
    Instead of reverting the change and getting the crusty escaping back, we
    will take this as an opportunity to stop inlining the XML altogether and
    load it from a resource instead.
    
    To facilitate that, add a small helper method that loads a D-Bus interface
    description from a dedicated resource bundle.
