Note that this patch doesn't make yum-updatesd do anything with the exit 
status yet; I'm not sure if it should handle it some way.  Maybe not emit the 
setup failed message at all if the exitstatus in the received PluginYumExit is 
0, and otherwise include it in the dbus message?  Or always emit and include 
it?  I have no experience with dbus so I don't know if including additional 
data in new messages that was not there in earlier versions causes problems 
for receivers.
