packagekit: Use a new PkClient for each separate operation

Philip Withnall requested to merge pwithnall/gnome-software:1762-packagekit-threading-more into main

Creating a PkClient is cheap, and there’s no reason (that I can see) to reuse a single instance throughout the lifetime of the PackageKit plugin.

The downside of reusing a single instance is that it means multiple refine operations potentially block on the associated mutex. That blocking can be avoided by using per-operation PkClient instances.
