Ichthyostega f089a34934 UI-Lifecycle: tie UI-Bus and UI-Manager directly to GtkLumiera
this is just a tiny change to make things more othogonal.
Now the unwinding and calls to any GTK / Widget dtors happen *after*
emitting the term signal from UI shutdown. Which means, the other subsystems
are shutting down (in their dedicated threads) as well, thus lowering
the probability of some action still using the UI and triggering an exception

/** @file gtk-lumiera.cpp
** Start up the Lumiera GTK GUI when loading it as dynamic module.
** This plugin is linked together with the Lumiera GUI code; when loaded as
** Lumiera plugin, it allows to kick off the GTK main event loop and thus to bring
** up the GUI. The loading and shutdown process is carried out by gui::GuiFacade and
** controlled by lumiera::AppState, which in turn is activated by Lumiera main().
**
** After successfully loading this module, a call to GuiFacade::launchUI is expected to
** happen, passing a termination signal (callback) to be executed when the GUI terminates.
** The implementation of GuiFacade in the GuiRunner in fact issues this call from the ctor
** body, while the interface is opened via an InstanceHandle member. The `launchUI()` call
** starts a new thread, which then becomes the UI event thread and remains blocked within
** the main GTK event loop. Before entering this loop, the CoreService of the GUI and
** especially the [UI-Bus](\ref ui-bus.hpp) is started see \ref GtkLumiera::run().
** This entails also to open the primary "business" interface(s) of the GUI
** (currently as of 1/16 this is the interface gui::GuiNotification.)
**
** @see lumiera::AppState
** @see gui::GuiFacade
** @see guifacade.cpp
** @see ui-manager.hpp
