Title:
  dee_serializable_serialize must return non-floating variant

Status in Unity:

Status in “dee” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Currently the documentation for dee_serializable_serialize says that
  the return value is a floating reference to a GVariant and it is also
  used in this way in methods like dee_serializable_externalize, but
  since the serialize method is virtual, we cannot make this assumption,
  as implementors of DeeSerializable may just return a cached GVariant.
  Although this is a subtle API-break, we should do it (ultimately this
  change introduces "only" a memory leak, which is already there anyway
  if they return non-floating reference).
