zbus: Yet another D-Bus library
summary
A new D‑Bus crate named zbus implements the wire format and GVariant-like values, shows a working connection and a called method within three days, but the initial API breaks on variant alignment rules because encoded variants keep internal offsets and grandchildren need different padding. Current work removes lifetimes, accepts some heap sharing for simplicity, and adds async, signal handling, a standalone variant crate and codegen/macros; core encoder/decoder correctness is not yet fully solved.
