Signatures of callbacks async_reply_handler, signal_handler, message_handler and property_set_callback were modified to take input message objects by value, as opposed to non-const ref.
The callee assumes ownership of the message. This API is more idiomatic, more expressive, cleaner and safer. Move semantics is used to pass messages to the callback handlers. In some cases, this also improves performance.
* Catch and process all exceptions (not just sdbus::Error) from callback handlers
* Unify handling of exceptions from all types of callbacks -- always set sd_bus_error and return a negative result number in case of exception
Although libsystemd logs (with DEBUG severity) all errors from such callback handlers (except method callback handler), it seems to be out of our control. One of handy sdbus-c++ features could be the ability for clients to install a log callback, which sdbus-c++ would call in case of exceptions flying from callback handlers. In case something doesn't work for clients (especially novices), they can first look into these logs.
This may be handy in common situations like ignored signals on client side because of the inadvertent mismatch between real signal signature and signal handler signature. Like here: #373. (Although in this specific case of signals, there is a solution with an additional const sdbus::Error* argument that would reveal such an error.)

Allow to use human readable chrono literals to specify method call
timeout. The change is backward compatbile - if no unit is provided,
the fallback is "us".
Example:
<annotation name="org.freedesktop.DBus.Method.Timeout" value="500ms"/>
* fix: minor documentation and test improvements
* doc: add link to tests in standard interfaces tutorial secion
* Update README.md
