Benjamin Berg 83cd09ba2f device: Unwatch names when removing them 
If a device is unplugged/destroyed while a client is using it, then we
would still end up watching the name. The vanish notification will then
access the destroyed FprintDevice object.

Fix this by unwatching the bus name when removing the client entry from
the dictionary.

README 

fprintd
=======

https://fprint.freedesktop.org/

Daemon to offer libfprint functionality over D-Bus
Might eat your kangaroo.

Written in C.

Licensed under the GPL version 2 or any later version (see COPYING).

A PAM login module is included in the 'pam' directory.

API use cases
=============

- User wants to use the fingerprint reader, and enroll
  his fingerprints, or remove some fingerprints from the database

- Administrator wants to enroll fingerprints for a particular user,
  or remove fingerprints for a particular user

- Laptop/desktop authentication:
  * Check for fingerprint devices
  * Check whether a particular user has any fingerprints enrolled
  * Verify a fingerprint for a particular user, or, if the device
  supports it, verify that the fingerprint matches against
  any of the fingerprints enrolled

- Point Of Sale authentication (in a bar, the fingerprint reader is
  used to see who accesses a particular point of sale/till, in place
  of PIN code authentication and/or tokens)
  * Given a list of users, verify which one has scanned their finger
