We need to make sure that such binaries are built and available at test time
or we may fail some tests requiring them (directly or through desktop file).
As per this, and because now generated desktop files are available both
at build and install time, don't skip some tests we were used to, but
actually enforce they are running.
We have some test programs on which some tests depend on, for example
appinfo-test is a tool that is used by the desktop-app-info tests.
So test can now have an 'extra_programs' key where the extra program
names can be included.
This could have been handled manually via 'depends', but this allows
to avoid repeating code and be sure that all is defined when extra
programs targets are checked.
`g_app_info_launch_default_for_uri_async()` has already returned by this
point, so waiting a long time is not really going to help.
Wait for 3× as long as the successful case took, which should allow for
long enough to catch true negatives, with a bit of variance.
On my system, this means waiting for about 14ms, rather than the 100ms
which this previous slept for. This speeds the test up by about 5%.

We were generating .desktop files with different content when installed
tests were enabled, and thus making impossible to test some cases
because there was no built file until installed.
To avoid this, always generate both versions of desktop files while
install only the one containing the install path prefix if needed.
Given that it can be computed using an error-prone strings comparisons it
is better to provide a variable everywhere, so that we don't have the
risk of comparing values that are always false.
We have tests that are failing in some environments, but it's
difficult to handle them because:
- for some environments we just allow all the tests to fail: DANGEROUS
- when we don't allow failures we have flacky tests: A CI pain
So, to avoid this and ensure that:
- New failing tests are tracked in all platforms
- gitlab integration on tests reports is working
- coverage is reported also for failing tests
Add support for `can_fail` keyword on tests that would mark the test as
part of the `failing` test suite.
Not adding the suite directly when defining the tests as this is
definitely simpler and allows to define conditions more clearly (see next
commits).
Now, add a default test setup that does not run the failing and flaky tests
by default (not to bother distributors with testing well-known issues) and
eventually run all the tests in CI:
- Non-flaky tests cannot fail in all platforms
- Failing and Flaky tests can fail
In both cases we save the test reports so that gitlab integration is
preserved.
G_MODULE_SUFFIX is deprecated now because you will get the wrong
results using it most of the time:
1. The suffix on macOS is usually 'dylib', but it's 'so' when using
Autotools, so there's no way to get the suffix correct using
a pre-processor macro.
2. Prefixes also vary in a platform-specific way. You may or may not have
a 'lib' prefix for the name on Windows and on Cygwin the prefix is
'cyg'.
3. The library name itself can vary per platform. For instance, you may
want to load foo-1.dll on Windows and libfoo.1.dylib on macOS. This
is for libraries, not modules, but that is still a use-case that
people use the GModule API for.
g_module_build_path() does take care of (2) on Cygwin, but it
fundamentally cannot handle the possibility of multiple options for
the module name, since it does not do any I/O. Hence, it is also
deprecated.
Instead, g_module_open() has been improved so that it takes care of
all this by searching the filesystem for combinations of possible
suffixes and prefixes on each platform. Along the way, the
documentation for it was also improved to make it clearer what it
does.

for GDBus's server implementation.
Abstract sockets belong to the network namespace instead of the mount
namespace. As a result, mount namespace-based sandboxes (e.g. Flatpak)
cannot restrict access to abstract sockets (and therefore GDBus's
unix:tmpdir= server addresses), at least for applications with network
access permission, which may result in sandbox escapes unless the
application running the GDBus server explicitly check that the connecting
process is not in a sandbox. As of the time of writing, no known
applications using GDBusServer does this.
Fix this by always using non-abstract sockets for unix:tmpdir=, which is
allowed by the DBus specification.

The implementation of `g_desktop_app_info_launch_uris()` will spawn the
exec file once for each URI unless the desktop file has a placeholder in
its Exec line which supports multiple URIs at once.
The fake terminal doesn’t have such a placeholder, so the fake terminal
script is spawned twice in quick succession, once for each URI. Since it
was making two separate printf calls (one to print the output to the
pipe, and one to terminate it with a newline), it’s possible that two
invocations of the script could interleave their printf calls, resulting
in pipe input along the lines of `URI1 URI2 newline newline` rather than
`URI1 newline URI2 newline`.
This would cause the test to fail.
Fix that by making the script atomic by moving the newline into the
first printf call.

It must only be defined when building libgio. This requires some
workaround to allow include of some gio private headers.
When GIO_COMPILATION is not defined we cannot include individual gio
headers. We workaround that by defining __GIO_GIO_H_INSIDE__ in some
places. Also gdbusprivate.h is not an installed header, so it's fine to
include it directly.
There is currently no `dllimport` attribute on any of our function,
which prevents MSVC to optimize function calls.
To fix that issue, we need to redeclare all our visibility macros for
each of our libraries, because when compiling e.g. GIO code, we need
dllimport in GLIB headers and dllexport in GIO headers. That means they
cannot use the same GLIB_AVAILABLE_* macro.
Since that's a lot of boilerplate to copy/paste after each version bump,
this MR generate all those macros using a python script.
Also simplify the meson side by using `gnu_symbol_visibility : 'hidden'`
keyword argument instead of passing the cflag manually.
This leaves only API index to add manually into glib-docs.xml when
bumping GLib version. That file cannot be generated because Meson does
not allow passing a buit file to gnome.gtkdoc()'s main_xml kwarg
unfortunately.
Otherwise, the build will fail when the toolchain is static-only, even
with -Ddefault_library=static. I talked to a Meson developer in their
IRC channel, who told me that the correct fix was to ensure that
shared_library is only used if default_library != static.

The prefix for GMarkupParseFlags enumeration members is G_MARKUP; this
means that G_MARKUP_PARSE_FLAGS_NONE gets split into
GLib.MarkupParseFlags.PARSE_FLAGS_NONE by the introspection scanner.
The `/*< nick=none >*/` trigraph attribute is a glib-mkenum thing, and
does not affect the introspection scanner; it would also only affect the
GEnumValue nickname, which is not used by language bindings to resolve
the name of the enumeration member. Plus, GMarkupParseFlags does not
have a corresponding GType anyway.
The prefix is G_TLS_CERTIFICATE, not G_TLS_CERTIFICATE_FLAGS. Having
G_TLS_CERTIFICATE_FLAGS_NONE leads to a FLAGS_NONE nick in the GType,
and a FLAGS_NONE member name in the introspection data.
Enumeration members should either have the name of the type as their
prefix, or they should all have the same prefix.
The "default flags" enumeration member for GApplicationFlags is
unfortunately named G_APPLICATION_FLAGS_NONE, while every other member
of the same type has a G_APPLICATION prefix. The result is that the nick
name of the enumeration member is "flags-none", and that language
bindings will have to use something like
Gio.ApplicationFlags.FLAGS_NONE.
To fix this API wart, we can deprecate the FLAGS_NONE member, and add a
new DEFAULT_FLAGS.

The dominant implementations of the well-known session and system
message buses are the reference implementation from the dbus project
(dbus-daemon) and the sd-bus-based reimplementation dbus-broker, both
of which have correct implementations for EXTERNAL authentication with
an unspecified authorization identity.
This makes it reasonably safe to assume that the well-known message
buses can cope with the unspecified authorization identity, even if we
cannot make the same assumption for custom servers such as the ones
used in ibus and gvfs (which might have been started with an older
GLib version before upgrading GLib in-place).

When using a GDBus client in a non-trivial user namespace, the result of
geteuid() can differ from the uid in the namespace where the server is
running. This would result in connection attempts being rejected, because
the identity that the client claims to have does not match the identity
that the server derives from its credentials.
RFC 4422 allows us to send an empty authorization identity, which means we
want to authenticate as whatever identity the server can derive from our
out-of-band credentials. In particular, this resolves the authentication
failure when crossing between different Linux user namespaces.
Because D-Bus does not have a way to represent an empty initial response
as distinct from the absence of an initial response, we cannot use the
initial-response optimization (RFC 4422 §4.3.a) in this case, and must
fall back to waiting for the server to send a challenge.
Unfortunately, GDBus versions older than glib!2826 did not implement
the server side of this protocol correctly, and would respond to the
missing initial response in a way that breaks the SASL state machine
(expecting a response without sending a challenge), causing client and
server to deadlock with each waiting for the other to respond. Until
fixed versions of GDBus are widespread, we can't rely on having a server
that can cope with this, so gate it behind a flag, which can be set for
connections that are known to cross non-trivial namespace boundaries.
Originally inspired by

cross-namespace behaviour was unconditional, rather than gated by a
flag).

In Debian-style multiarch (libdir = lib/x86_64-linux-gnu or similar),
Red-Hat-style multilib (libdir = lib64 or lib) and Arch-style multilib
(libdir = lib or lib32), we have to run a separate version of
gio-querymodules to discover 32- or 64-bit modules on x86. Installing
modules in the directory used for each word size needs to trigger
recompilation of the correct modules list.
Debian, Fedora and Arch currently all have patches to facilitate this:
Debian moves gio-querymodules into ${libdir}/glib-2.0 and provides a
compat symlink in ${bindir}, while Fedora and Arch rename one or both
of the gio-querymodules executables to give it a -32 or -64 suffix.
We can avoid the need for these patches by making this a build option.
Doing this upstream has the advantage that the pkg-config metadata for
each architecture points to the correct executable and is in sync with
reality.
I'm using Debian's installation scheme with a separate directory here,
because the word-size suffix used in Fedora and Arch only works for the
common case of 32- and 64-bit multilib, and does not cover scenarios
where there can be more than one ABI with the same word size, such as
multiarch cross-compilation or alternative ABIs like x32.
Now that we have this infrastructure, it's also convenient to use it for
glib-compile-schemas. This works with /usr/share, so it only needs to
be run for one architecture (typically the system's primary
architecture), but using /usr/bin/glib-compile-schemas for the trigger
would result in either primary and secondary architectures trying to
overwrite each other's /usr/bin/glib-compile-schemas binaries, or a
circular dependency (the GLib library would have to depend on a
common package that contains glib-compile-schemas, but
glib-compile-schemas depends on the GLib library). Installing a
glib-compile-schemas binary in an architecture-specific location
alongside each GLib library bypasses this problem.

RFC 4422 appendix A defines the empty authorization identity to mean
the identity that the server associated with its authentication
credentials. In this case, this means whatever uid is in the
GCredentials object.
In particular, this means that clients in a different Linux user
namespace can authenticate against our server and will be authorized
as the version of their uid that is visible in the server's namespace,
even if the corresponding numeric uid returned by geteuid() in the
client's namespace was different. systemd's sd-bus has relied on this
since commit

Sending an "initial response" along with the AUTH command is meant
to be an optional optimization, and clients are allowed to omit it.
We must reply with our initial challenge, which in the case of EXTERNAL
is an empty string: the client responds to that with the authorization
identity.
If we do not reply to the AUTH command, then the client will wait
forever for our reply, while we wait forever for the reply that we
expect the client to send, resulting in deadlock.
D-Bus does not have a way to distinguish between an empty initial
response and the absence of an initial response, so clients that want
to use an empty authorization identity, such as systed's sd-bus,
cannot use the initial-response optimization and will fail to connect
to a GDBusServer that does not have this change.
