libmate-panel-applet: Register 'Activate' DBus method

This in turn emits an 'activate' signal that any applet can connect to
and perform whatever action it means to activate in that applet.

This allows users to control certain applet functionalities through
DBus, like registering new keybindings, or integrating them with other
software.
