feat: introduce support for struct-as-dict serialization (#459)

This extends the functionality of SDBUSCPP_REGISTER_STRUCT macro.

It now provides functionality for serializing a user-defined struct as an a{sv} dictionary, and for deserializing an a{sv} dictionary into a user-defined struct. The former one is achieved by decorating the struct with sdbus::as_dictionary(struct), the latter one is an automatic behavior -- when sdbus-c++ is asked to deserialize into a struct but the data in the message is of type a{sv}, then the dict-to-struct deserialization is performed automatically.

There are some aspects of behavior in the serialization/deserialization functionality that can be customized by the client. Newly introduced SDBUSCPP_ENABLE_NESTED_STRUCT2DICT_SERIALIZATION and SDBUSCPP_ENABLE_RELAXED_DICT2STRUCT_DESERIALIZATION macros serve the purpose.
