Subject: Gio::AsyncResult: Explain why wrap() is not used in
 get_source_object_base()

* gio/src/asyncresult.ccg: Replace a TODO comment with an explanation.
* tests/giomm_asyncresult_sourceobject/main.cc: Add code that demonstrates
why Glib::wrap(GObject* object, bool take_copy) returns an empty RefPtr.
