A LibraryBackend may be deleted while an associated LibraryModel object is using
it. An example is an async query running while a connected device is removed.
To prevent this, use a share pointer for the LibraryBackend.
This fixes one case where LibraryBackend is used after deletion. However, the
raw pointer is still passed around in several other places. These should be
evaluated on a case-by-case basis to insure that circular depencencies aren't
introduced.
Currently, the failure to connect to an MTP device results in the UI displaying
an open device that appears empty. This change introduces a method
ConnectedDevice::ConnectAsync() that is expected to handle any connecting tasks
that could block asynchronously. Upon completion, this emits a ConnectFinished
signal that indicates success or failure. The row in the UI is only updated
after the successful response is received. Upon failure, DeviceManager will
clean up and the row in UI is left in the pre-connect state.
Currently, only the MtpDevice utilizes this mechanism. All other devices use a
default implementation that immediately reports success.
