Overview of changes in GLib 2.67.1
==================================
* Deprecate `g_time_zone_new()` in favour of `g_time_zone_new_identifier()`,
which makes error checking easier (#553)
* Remove `volatile` from various public APIs, including `G_DEFINE_*`. You should
adjust your code to not use `volatile` for atomic variables, `GOnce`
variables, or mostly anything else (see
http://isvolatileusefulwiththreads.in/c/). (#600)
* Support passing file handles to `gdbus` command line tool (work by
Norbert Pocs and Tim Waugh) (#961)
* Add `g_assert_cmpstrv()` test convenience function (work by Niels De Graef) (#2015)
* Changes to the behaviour of the `G_URI_FLAGS_SCHEME_NORMALIZE` scheme
normalization flag in `GUri` (work by Carlos Garcia Campos) (#2257, !1716)
* Add new `--run-prefix` and `--skip-prefix` options to GTest, to allow running
or skipping test suites by prefix (work by Frederic Martinsons) (!1738)
* Fix thread-safety of `GBinding`; see the updated documentation for
`g_object_bind_property()` for full details — if your code uses `GBinding`
across threads, you should re-check it against the latest documentation, use
`g_binding_unbind()` rather than implicitly dropping the binding with your
last `g_object_unref()` call, and use `g_binding_dup_source()`/`g_binding_dup_target()`
instead of `g_binding_get_source()`/`g_binding_get_target()`
(work by Sebastian Dröge) (!1745)
* Bugs fixed:
- #553 Improved error-handling when timezone lookup fails
- #600 Remove "volatile" from G_DEFINE_*
- #961 gdbus tool: file handle passing doesn't work
- #994 mark g_assert_* as "noreturn" also on MSVC

- #1833 meson: reconsider G_DISABLE_CAST_CHECKS handling
- #1849 Documentation of g_set_object(): can object_ptr be null?
- #1963 Follow-up from "gdbusmessage: Limit recursion of variants in D-Bus messages"
- #2015 Add g_assert_cmpstrv() test utility
- #2046 Add pylint and shellcheck CI checks
- #2074 Big dbus writes with a FD list fail
- #2076 g_type_register_fundamental() and g_type_add_interface_static() should not trigger valgrind leak warnings
- #2150 Add URI parsing tests from GstURI to GUri
- #2221 GLib-GIO:ERROR:../gio/tests/gsocketclient-slow.c:99:on_event: 'connection' should be NULL
- #2223 Documentation of g_strrstr_len is misleading; suggested fix
- #2233 GSocketClient crashes on connection failure
- #2236 Docs: gdbus-codegen example links broken
- #2253 In gspawn.c, use sysconf() system call on Mac OS, instead of default maxfiles limit of 4096
- #2257 GUri: apply scheme normalization flag consistently
- !1251 Improve support for interface types
- !1385 gobject: allocate parameter list for g_object_new_valist() entirely on stack
- !1629 Add some tracing to GTask
- !1699 Fix signedness warnings
- !1701 gio: Fix some remaining DocBook syntax in a documentation comment
- !1708 gio: Add missing nullable annotations
- !1716 guri: Normalize uri segments if they are encoded and add a flag to do scheme-based normalization
- !1722 gio: Fix various typos of the name D-Bus
- !1724 glib/tests/fileutils: Fix expectations when running as root
- !1726 gdbus: Document the intended semantics of handles and fdsTim Waugh
- !1731 Make more use of g_assert_no_errno()
