Creates a new signal. (This is usually done in the class initializer.)
</para>
<para>
A signal name consists of segments consisting of ASCII letters and
digits, separated by either the '-' or '_' character. The first
character of a signal name must be a letter. Names which violate these
rules lead to undefined behaviour of the GSignal system.

be used, but they cannot be mixed.

Blocks a handler of an instance so it will not be called during

A blocked handler is skipped during signal emissions and will not be
invoked, unblocking it (for exactly the amount of times it has been
blocked before) reverts its "blocked" state, so the handler will be
recognized by the signal system and is called upon future or currently
ongoing signal emissions (since the order in which handlers are
called during signal emissions is deterministic, whether the
unblocked handler in question is called as part of a currently
ongoing emission depends on how far that emission has proceeded
yet).
