Marco Trevisan (Treviño) 18d6a86e9d device: Use early match for reporting verify status
libfprint 1.90.1 supports early match result report which allows to inform
the clients as soon as the driver detected a match/no-match without having
to wait the whole device driver deactivation.

Use this feature in fprintd, by emitting the "VerifyStatus" signal as soon
as we've an usable result we can inform the client about.

As per this, ignore any possible error we may get afterwards, due to device
issues or late user cancellation, as the point of the verification action
(i.e. getting a match/no-match) can be considered accomplished.

API use cases
=============

- User wants to use the fingerprint reader, and enroll
  his fingerprints, or remove some fingerprints from the database

- Administrator wants to enroll fingerprints for a particular user,
  or remove fingerprints for a particular user

- Laptop/desktop authentication:
  * Check for fingerprint devices
  * Check whether a particular user has any fingerprints enrolled
  * Verify a fingerprint for a particular user, or, if the device
  supports it, verify that the fingerprint matches against
  any of the fingerprints enrolled

- Point Of Sale authentication (in a bar, the fingerprint reader is
  used to see who accesses a particular point of sale/till, in place
  of PIN code authentication and/or tokens)
