gdbus: Fix incorrect DBusConnection reference counting

Commit abfc2b0dd5c3e33abfdf1a815b16d492c1751c06 attempted to fix a crash
related to improper reference counting, but the main issue was that the
reference was taken only during the function call (which is usually
unnecessary for single thread), but still passed a pointer to
DBusConnection to a function that is called by the mainloop. This left a
window where the DBusConnection can be destroyed.

Fixes this crash on unit/test-gdbus-client:
