Qt DBus is still a lot of black magic to me, but I noticed that you do:

    QIcon.fromTheme("utilities-terminal").pixmap(512, 512).save(buffer, "PNG")
    [...]
    message.setArguments(["", "Name", QDBusVariant(buffer), {}])

while the C++ code does:

    QIcon::fromTheme("utilities-terminal").pixmap(maxSize, \
maxSize).save(&buffer,"PNG");  PortalIcon icon {QStringLiteral("bytes"), \
QDBusVariant(buffer.buffer())};

    message << parentWindowId() << QStringLiteral("Patschen")
            << QVariant::fromValue(QDBusVariant(QVariant::fromValue(icon)))
            << ...

You seem to be missing the second step there: creating a PortalIcon
object with the "bytes" string in it, and the actual data from the
QBuffer (as a QByteArray).

I don't know how far it'll get you, but I do something vaguely similar
here:
https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/blob/v2.5.1/qutebrowser/browser/webengine/notification.py#L1047-L1048


The data is then added here:
