dcfc9f689e Fix symbol visibility macros on Windows
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.

10280deebd Meson: Override every dependency glib provides
Meson 0.54.0 added a new method meson.override_dependency() that must be
used to ensure dependency consistency. This patch ensures a project that
depends on glib will never link to a mix of system and subproject
libraries. It would happen in such cases:

The system has glib 2.40 installed, and a project does:
dependency('glib-2.0', version: '>=2.60',
  fallback: ['glib', 'glib_dep'])
dependency('gobject-2.0')

The first call will configure glib subproject because the system libglib
is too old, but the 2nd call will return system libgobject.

By overriding 'gobject-2.0' dependency while configuring glib subproject
during the first call, meson knows that on the 2nd call it must return
the subproject dependency instead of system dependency.

This also has the nice side effect that with Meson >0.54.0 an
application depending on glib can declare the fallback without knowing
the dependency variable name: dependency('glib-2.0', fallback: 'glib').

8b3590c231 meson: Add macOS libtool versioning for ABI compatibility
With this, the compatibility version and current version values in macOS
and iOS dylibs will match the values set by Autotools.

b6cb22f32b Meson: Do not build tests with nodelete/Bsymbolic-functions
-z nodelete breaks the libresourceplugin module usage in the resources.c
test, which expects to be able to unload it.

Make the Meson build match what the autotools build does: only pass
glib_link_flags to the headline libraries (glib-2.0, gio-2.0,
gobject-2.0, gthread-2.0, gmodule-2.0) and omit it from all other build
targets.

cf93b27ceb meson: fix static build under Windows
Properly define GLIB/GOBJECT_STATIC_COMPILATION when static build is enabled.
Use library() instead of shared_library() to allow selecting static builds.

aa7c5cbdcb meson: build Windows resource files
configure_file() forces utf-8 atm but .rc files are not utf-8.
To work around the issue just remove the only non-ASCII char.

2f29ee1735 meson: add -fvisibility=hidden explicitly to selected targets
Don't use it project-wide for building everything. Otherwise
symbols for shared modules won't be exposed, e.g. in the
resourceplugin used by the gio resource unit test.

fe2a9887a8 meson: Improve MSVC and MinGW support and fix dependencies everywhere
Disable gio tests on Windows, fix .gitignore to not ignore
config.h.meson, and add more things to it.

Rename the library file naming and versioning to match what Autotools
outputs, e.g., libglib-2.0.so.0.5000.2 on Linux, libglib-2.0-0.dll  and
glib-2.0-0.dll on Windows with MSVC.

Several more tiny fixes, more executables built and installed, install
pkg-config and m4 files, fix building of gobject tests.

Changes to gdbus-codegen to support out-of-tree builds without
environment variables set (which you can't in Meson). We now add the
build directory to the Python module search path.

213957970e meson: Fix glib, add gobject, gio, gthread, gmodule, etc
Several small fixes to the build files.

Lots of tests have also been added, and glib tests pass now.
