Title:
  Failure to inhibit screen blanking, powerd D-Bus API has changed

Status in Oxide Webview:
  Fix Released
Status in Oxide 1.1 series:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Testing oxide 1.1.0 from the phablet-team PPA, while playing back a
  video screen blanking happens, and I’m seeing the following message in
  the log:

  [0704/163250:ERROR:object_proxy.cc(566)] Failed to call method: com.canonical.powerd.requestDisplayState: object_path= /com/canonical/powerd: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: No such method 'requestDisplayState'
  [0704/163250:ERROR:oxide_power_save_blocker.cc(116)] Failed to inhibit screen blanking

  It appears the display handling was removed from powerd in version
  0.16+14.10.20140620-0ubuntu1, apparently we should now invoke the
  unity D-Bus API for this:

      com.canonical.Unity.Screen
          /com/canonical/Unity/Screen
              com.canonical.Unity.Screen
                  keepDisplayOn() -> int cookie
                  removeDisplayOnRequest(int cookie)
