Deriving from two templates means the `before_script` from the second
one overrides, rather than adding to, the one from the first.
Avoid that when using `.build-linux` and `.with-git` by explicitly
joining both scripts.

On i386 Linux, the minimal ABI alignment of a double is only 4, and

It's helpful for the assertion message to say what we were expecting and
what we actually got. It's also useful to have g_test_message()
diagnostics to indicate how far into the test we were.

Previously we didn't test these at all, which made it hard to determine
whether %Ec, %EC had appropriate output on platforms where era-based
dates are unsupported. Now we do, and we can observe that on platforms
with no support for era-based dates, %c matches %Ec and %C matches %EC,
as desired.

I can't read Japanese, but these match the output of:
env TZ=UTC LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucjp date -d2009-10-24T00:00:00Z '+%c' | iconv -f eucjp -t UTF-8
env TZ=UTC LC_ALL=ja_JP.eucjp date -d2009-10-24T00:00:00Z '+%C' | iconv -f eucjp -t UTF-8
which seem like a reasonable thing to use as a reference.
According to Google Translate, 平成 refers to the Heisei era, which was
current during 2009, and seems unreasonable to expect as output on a
platform where era-based dates are unsupported.

On a fast laptop, this test currently takes about 7s to run, which is a
significant portion of the overall test suite time.
On a slower CI machine, especially running the test under valgrind, the
test can time out.
There’s no need to always run so many iterations: we run the tests under
CI so often that it’s likely a failure will eventually be hit (if there
is a bug) even with fewer iterations. We also now run the tests once a
week with `-m slow`, so the original iteration count will also still be
used then.

To avoid a big introspection API break.
These APIs are now listed in the new `{GLib,Gio}{Unix,Win32}-2.0.gir`
files, but for backwards compatibility they need to continue to be
listed in `Gio-2.0.gir` and `GLib-2.0.gir` as well, until the next major
introspection API break (and none is planned).
No new platform specific APIs should be added to these GIR files, but
these existing ones must remain.

So now introspection users will have to call `GLibUnix.open_pipe()`
rather than `GLibUnix.unix_open_pipe()` — or

`GLibWin32.win32_check_windows_version()`.

Enable the msys2-mingw32 CI job for merges, just like the fedora-x86_64
job is. The pair of them can then build the platform specific GIR and
documentation files.
The `download-reference.sh` script in the `docs-gtk-org` branch of GTK
can then download the docs as an artifact from the latest GLib build of
`main`, and publish them on docs.gtk.org, as is currently done for the
platform agnostic documentation.

This creates `GioUnix`, `GioWin32`, `GLibUnix` and `GLibWin32`. These
bodies of documentation are in addition to the main, platform agnostic,

For both GLib and GIO. (GObject, GIRepository and GModule don’t have any
platform specific APIs.)
This is needed for two reasons:
* If the same GIR file is shipped on multiple platforms, it has no way
to conditionally define/not-define an API based on the platform (like
an `#ifdef` in a C header). So we either end up shipping differing
GIR APIs on different platforms, or shipping a GIR file which
declares APIs which aren’t resolvable by `dlopen()` on certain
platforms, and will cause a language runtime error.
* The API reference documentation is now generated from the GIR, and
similar problems are present there: if the GIR contains different
symbols depending on the platform, there is no way to generate API
documentation for the union of all of them.
The fix is to ensure that there are no conditional symbols in a GIR, by
splitting out the platform specific symbols into platform specific GIR
files. Platform specific documentation can then be generated from these,
in addition to the main, platform agnostic, documentation.
The documentation changes will following in a subsequent commit.

Maintain them in separate lists within `meson.build`. This makes no
functional difference at the moment, but will be used in an upcoming

There was no obvious logical need to list the `GAppInfo` subclass
sources separately in the build. It makes more sense to add them to the
platform-specific source lists, since they are platform specific.
This will be used in an upcoming commit which generates
platform-specific GIR files, so needs the full platform-specific lists
of sources.

`GFileDescriptorBased` is in `gio-unix-2.0` rather than `gio-2.0`, so
its types shouldn’t be declared in a header belonging to the latter.
This hasn’t been a problem previously because C is fine with that. But
upcoming commits are going to split the introspection scanning for
`gio-2.0` and `gio-unix-2.0`, and the introspection scanner is a little
more picky about declarations not being spread all over the place.

This reverts commit 50d432c77b.
The platform-specific headers of GLib and Gio are now introspected

Instead, add a method on `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` which indicates whether
the registered type is a boxed type. This will return true for
`GIStructInfo` and `GIUnionInfo` instances which are boxed (not all
structs and unions are).
This makes `GIBoxedInfo` redundant, and it’ll be dropped in a following
commit.
---
There are several different things which typelibs need to be able to
represent:
1. Plain old datatype (POD) structs
2. POD unions
3. Structs with a copy func and/or free func
4. Unions with a copy func and/or free func
5. Structs which are the ‘GType struct’ for an object or interface (i.e.
the class or instance or interface struct)
6. Structs with a copy func and free func *and* boxed GType
7. Unions with a copy func and free func *and* boxed GType
8. Boxed GTypes which represent something other than a struct or union
So there’s a lot going on here. In commit
e28078c70cbf4a57c7dbd39626f43f9bd2674145, a lot of this was reworked,
and support was added for boxed unions and boxed ‘others’ (the last item
on the list above).
Since then, support for boxed types other than structs seems to have
atrophied a bit, and the whole lot has got a bit confusing.
It was perhaps less confusing when all the `GIBaseInfo` subclasses were
actually aliases of each other, but now they have subtype relationships,
the position of `GIBoxedInfo` in that type hierarchy has become unclear.
How is it related to `GIStructInfo`, `GIUnionInfo` and
`GIRegisteredTypeInfo`?
Since a boxed type is necessarily a `GIRegisteredTypeInfo`, and the
methods of `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` are all written to allow a `GType` to
be optional, so that `GIStructInfo` and `GIUnionInfo` can safely derive
from it and still be used to represent plain old datatypes without
`GType`s, it makes sense to add a method to `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` to
indicate that the registered type is derived from `G_TYPE_BOXED`.
Accordingly, the things above are now represented in libgirepository’s
type system as:
1. `GIStructInfo` instance, `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` methods return no
`GType` info
2. `GIUnionInfo` instance similarly
3. `GIStructInfo` instance, `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` methods return no
`GType` info, `gi_struct_info_get_{copy,free}_function_name()` return
non-`NULL` values
4. `GIUnionInfo` instance similarly
5. `GIStructInfo` instance, `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` methods return no
`GType` info, `gi_struct_info_is_gtype_struct()` returns true
6. `GIStructInfo` instance, `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` methods return valid
`GType` information, `gi_registered_type_info_is_boxed()` returns
true, `gi_struct_info_get_{copy,free}_function_name()` return
`NULL` values (because the copy/free functions are hidden inside the
boxed type registration at runtime)
7. `GIUnionInfo` instance similarly
8. Not representable, but could be represented in future by re-adding a
`GIBoxedInfo` type which derives from `GIRegisteredTypeInfo` and is
used solely for boxed ‘other’ types, *not* boxed structs or unions

Fixes: #3245
When creating `GIBaseInfo` instances from binary blobs, so far the code
has used an undocumented implicit conversion from one enum type to the
other. That’s a bit nasty, as it means the two enum types need to be
kept in sync (without that need being documented).
Introduce an explicit conversion function to make things more explicit.
Currently it does nothing, but in an upcoming commit it will be used to
deprecate a blob type.
