     * ProxyInterfaces is a helper template class that joins all interface classes of a remote
     * D-Bus object generated by sdbus-c++-xml2cpp to be used on the client (the proxy) side,
     * including some auxiliary classes. ProxyInterfaces is the class that native-like proxy
     * implementation classes written by users should inherit from and implement all pure virtual
     * methods. So the _Interfaces template parameter is a list of sdbus-c++-xml2cpp-generated
     * proxy-side interface classes representing interfaces of the corresponding remote D-Bus object.
     *
     * In the final proxy class inherited from ProxyInterfaces, it is necessary to finish proxy
     * registration in class constructor (`finishRegistration();`), and, conversely, unregister
     * the proxy in class destructor (`unregister();`).
