Review request for Telepathy.


Description
-------

I think it's silly to have #define PREFERRED_*_HANDLER everywhere where we want to handle "start chat/call/..." actions. If we ever want/have to change the strings, this is the best way to forget about some hidden #define somewhere and break things.

Also looking at the ensure*Call, createStreamTube - there are these magic keywords, like "audio" or "rfb" (really, how is "rfb" related to "desktop sharing"?) and the useless QDateTime::currentDateTime() being passed everywhere.

Finally, because I have problems with remembering KInvocationTool classname, it also has openLogViewer() method (IIRC David already criticized hardcoding the ktp-log-viewer name and arguments list everywhere we want to support logviewer).

All the methods in the API proposed in this patch only have two arguments: Tp::AccountPtr and Tp::ContactPtr (and filename in case of filetransfer) - it looks much cleaner and pretty and it nicely takes care of the magic strings and #defines that I don't like.

If you happen to like this proposal, I'll post reviews for porting all components to the API.
