/** Starts watching @a name on the bus specified by @a bus_type and calls
* @a name_appeared_slot and @a name_vanished_slot when the name is
* known to have a owner respectively known to lose its owner. Callbacks will
* be invoked in the thread-default main loop of the thread you are calling
* this function from.
*
* You are guaranteed that one of the slot will be invoked after calling
* this function. When you are done watching the name, just call
* unwatch_name() with the watcher id this function returns.
*
* If the name vanishes or appears (for example the application owning the
* name could restart), the slot are also invoked. If the Connection
* that is used for watching the name disconnects, then @a
* name_vanished_slot is invoked since it is no longer possible to access
* the name.
*
* Another guarantee is that invocations of @a name_appeared_slot and @a
* name_vanished_slot are guaranteed to alternate; that is, if
* @a name_appeared_slot is invoked then you are guaranteed that the next
* time one of the slot is invoked, it will be @a name_vanished_slot.
* The reverse is also true.
*
* This behavior makes it very simple to write applications that wants to take
* action when a certain name exists, see the C API's Example 9, “Simple
* application watching a name” for more information. Basically, the
* application should create object proxies in @a name_appeared_slot and
* destroy them again (if any) in @a name_vanished_slot.
*
* @param bus_type The type of bus to watch a name on.
* @param name The name (well-known or unique) to watch.
* @param name_appeared_slot Slot to invoke when name is known to exist.
* @param name_vanished_slot Slot to invoke when name is known to not
* exist.
* @param flags Flags from the BusNameWatcherFlags enumeration.
* @return An identifier (never 0) that can be used with unwatch_name() to
* stop watching the name.
