Make all the API consistent by using return_slot_t-based overloads for returning the slots to clients, and overloads without that tag for "floating" slots. floating_slot_t tag was previously added for API backwards compatibility reasons, but now is a (counter-)duplicate to the return_slot_t.
Since sdbus-c++ knows types of D-Bus call/signal/property input/output parameters at compile time, why not assemble the D-Bus signature strings at compile time, too, instead of assembling them at run time as std::string with likely cost of (unnecessary) heap allocations...
std::array is well supported constexpr type in C++20, so we harness it to build the D-Bus signature string and store it into the binary at compile time.
This introduces strong types for `std::string`-based D-Bus types. This facilitates safer, less error-prone and more expressive API.
What previously was `auto proxy = createProxy("org.sdbuscpp.concatenator", "/org/sdbuscpp/concatenator");` is now written like `auto proxy = createProxy(ServiceName{"org.sdbuscpp.concatenator"}, ObjectPath{"/org/sdbuscpp/concatenator"});`.
These types are:
* `ObjectPath` type for the object path (the type has been around already but now is also used consistently in sdbus-c++ API for object path strings),
* `InterfaceName` type for D-Bus interface names,
* `BusName` (and its aliases `ServiceName` and `ConnectionName`) type for bus/service/connection names,
* `MemberName` (and its aliases `MethodName`, `SignalName` and `PropertyName`) type for D-Bus method, signal and property names,
* `Signature` type for the D-Bus signature (the type has been around already but now is also used consistently in sdbus-c++ API for signature strings),
* `Error::Name` type for D-Bus error names.
* feat: support serialization of array, span and unordered_map
* fix some spelling mistakes
* docs: update table of valid c++ types

fix timeout handling
* Despite what is documented in sd_bus_get_timeout(3), the timeout
returned is actually an absolute time point of Linux's CLOCK_MONOTONIC
clock. Hence, we first have to subtract the current time from the
timeout in order to get a relative time that can be passed to poll.
* For async call timeouts to reliably work, we need a way to notify the
event loop of a connection that is currently blocked waiting in poll.
I.e. assume the event loop thread entered poll with a timeout set to
T1. Afterwards, the main thread starts an async call C with a timeout
T2 < T1. In order for C to be canceled after its timeout T1 has
elapsed, we have to be able to notify the event loop so that it can
update its poll data.

* Add API to get message path
* Add API to get message destination
* Handle NULL message fields interface and member
Functions sd_bus_message_get_interface() and sd_bus_message_get_member()
can return null in case the message does not use those fields or does
not have them set.
