[Bug 1231737] [NEW] please integrate with trust-store

[Jamie Strandboge]

Public bug reported:

Currently the 'friends' policy group is reserved because giving access
to the friend's DBus API allows applications to send messages without
the user knowing. If 'friends' is going to be made generally available
to untrusted appstore apps, the friends service needs to be modified to
use trust-store, like location-service does. Integrating with trust-
store means that when an app tries to connect to the friends service
over DBus, friends will contact trust-store, the trust-store will prompt
the user ("Foo wants to access your friends accounts. Is this ok?
Yes|No"), optionally cache the result and return the result to the
friends service. In this manner the user is given a contextual prompt at
the time of access by the app. Using caching this decision can be
remembered the next time. If caching is used, there should be a method
to change the decision in settings.

Targeting to T-Series for now, since the trust-store is not in a
reusable form yet.
