I spent a bit of time tonight refactoring some of the code base and
began wrapping the resolver into GServiceResolver. After that I will
write GServicePublisher. Using object inheritance we only ever create
one client connection to Avahi for all of these objects.

I am probably going to continue to tweak some more API stuff. I want to
look at how the C# guys are doing things. I've noticed that some of my
implementation has bent away from my original sketches.

I'm very much open to all ideas.
