Replace the underlying write_string() call which is the ultimate result
of calling g_log() with a call to g_log_structured(). This means that
all g_log() calls will pass through the structured log handling code
path, as long as they are not already modified or dropped by the g_log()
code (fatal masks, aborts, etc.).
In the case that the default structured log writer is in use, this will
result in the same format of log output to stdout or stderr, as
previously happened. If a non-default writer is in use, it handles the
message as it sees fit.

If outputting to a terminal which supports coloured output (rather than,
for example, redirecting to a file). This is only enabled for structured
log messages, where colour output support can be tested. It is not
enabled for non-structured log messages.

In parallel with g_log(), add a new structured logging API, based around
g_log_structured() and various helper functions which are exposed
publicly to allow programs to build their own logging policies easily,
without having to rewrite a lot of gmessages.c because it’s all
internal.
See the expanded documentation at the top of gmessages.c for some
rationale. See the g_log_structured() documentation for some example
code.

Add various (nullable) and (optional) annotations which were missing
from a variety of functions. Also port a couple of existing (allow-none)
annotations in the same files to use (nullable) and (optional) as
appropriate instead.
Secondly, add various (not nullable) annotations as needed by the new
default in gobject-introspection of marking gpointers as (nullable). See
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729660.
This includes adding some stub documentation comments for the
assertion macro error functions, which weren’t previously documented.
The new comments are purely to allow for annotations, and hence are
marked as (skip) to prevent the symbols appearing in the GIR file.

By default g_log_default_handler always assumes that stdout
and stderr are file descriptors 1 and 2. On Win32 this isn't
always the case as the win32 API functions AttachConsole and
freopen can be used to dynamically attach GUI applications to
a console and the file descriptors of stderr and stdout will
become different than 1 and 2.
Fix it by using fputs with the FILE directly instead of
using the file descriptors.

It seems to be common for people to use g_warning() or g_error() as pre-
and post-condition error reporting functions, which is not really what
they’re intended for. Similarly, it is generally a sign of bad API
design to use g_warning() to report errors — use GError instead.
Try and suggest this to the user in the hope that nice code results.

Instead of INCLUDES, which is deprecated in automake. Using AM_CPPFLAGS
also gives the hint that the -D argument should be a CPPFLAGS variable,
rather than CFLAGS.
When GLib had been told to expect message X, but then actually saw
message Y, it would log the "did not see expected message" error with
message Y's log level and domain, which makes no sense. Change it to
log with domain "GLib" and G_LOG_LEVEL_CRITICAL instead.
Also, include the expected domain in the error message, so that if
that's the reason why the expectation didn't match, you can tell that
from the error message.
Update glib/tests/testing.c for these changes; for all other test
programs in GLib and elsewhere, this change should not break any
existing tests, it should only improve the output on failure.

Commit e53caad4 makes _g_log_abort() noreturn by calling abort()
unconditionally.
However, it is useful to be able to skip some log_abort() with a
debugger, to reach a point of interest. Revert back to previous
behaviour. Make g_assert_warning() noreturn by calling abort().

g_test_init() was calling _g_messages_set_exit_on_fatal() from
subprocesses, to make fatal log messages call _exit() rather than
abort(), but the function name is sort of confusing, and we don't
really need it anyway, since g_log() can just call g_test_subprocess()
instead and decide for itself.
Likewise, update g_assertion_message() to do the check itself, rather
than calling into gmessages to do it, and fix
g_assertion_message_expr() to also check whether it should exit or
abort. (Previously it always called abort(), although this didn't
actually matter since that was dead code until
test_nonfatal_assertions was added.)

In Windows development environments that have it, <unistd.h> is mostly
just a wrapper around several other native headers (in particular,
<io.h>, which contains read(), close(), etc, and <process.h>, which
contains getpid()). But given that some Windows dev environments don't
have <unistd.h>, everything that uses those functions on Windows
already needed to include the correct Windows header as well, and so
there is never any point to including <unistd.h> on Windows.
Also, remove some <unistd.h> includes (and a few others) that were
unnecessary even on unix.

Debug messages are meant to give insight into how a process is
proceeding, and are unpredictable in nature. They also often have
line numbers in them.
This patch ignores debug messages in g_test_assert_expected_messages().

Allow passing a NULL domain to g_test_expect_message(), and more
importantly, don't crash if a message with a NULL domain gets logged
while there is an expected message.
Back in the far-off twentieth century, it was normal on unix
workstations for U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT to be drawn as "‛" and for U+0027
APOSTROPHE to be drawn as "’". This led to the convention of using
them as poor-man's ‛smart quotes’ in ASCII-only text.
However, "'" is now universally drawn as a vertical line, and "`" at a
45-degree angle, making them an `odd couple' when used together.
Unfortunately, there are lots of very old strings in glib, and also
lots of new strings in which people have kept up the old tradition,
perhaps entirely unaware that it used to not look stupid.
Fix this by just using 'dumb quotes' everywhere.

Since we expect them to crash, let's not spam the system
core dump collection (systemd, abrt). At the moment
systemd is not very robust against programs crashing
in loops.
Instead of aborting, we exit(1).

g_test_trap_fork() doesn't work on Windows and is potentially flaky on
unix anyway given the fork-but-don't-exec. Replace it with
g_test_trap_subprocess(), which re-spawns the same program with
arguments telling it to run a specific (otherwise-ignored) test case.
Make the existing g_test_trap_fork() unit tests be unix-only (they
never passed on Windows anyway), and add a parallel set of
g_test_trap_subprocess() tests.
Also fix the logic of gtestutils's "-p" argument (which is used by the
subprocess tests); previously if you had tests "/foo/bar" and
"/foo/bar/baz", and ran the test program with "-p /foo/bar/baz", it
would run "/foo/bar" too. Fix that and add tests.
