dbusServices/extensions: Only allow one dialog at a time

Showing multiple preference dialogs at the same time (for instance
by repeated `gnome-extensions prefs` calls) may or may not work as
expected, depending on whether any of the dialogs is modal or not
(read: opened via the Extensions app).

The easiest way to address this is to disallow more than a single
dialog at the time. It's arguably also the more predictable behavior,
and means extensions don't have to deal with inconsistent state
caused by multiple dialogs.
