/proc/self/mountinfo is used to monitor changes of mounts with libmount.
However, GFileMonitor is used currently to monitor this file, which
doesn't work and consequently "changed" signal is never emitted. Special
monitoring needs to be used instead, same as it is used for /proc/mounts.

Use mnt_context_get_mtab instead of using mnt_context_get_table(), since
that's the recommended way of accessing mtab/mountinfo information, and
also because that way the (struct libmnt_table *) will get automatically
deallocated when calling mnt_free_context()

GUnixMountMonitor was not threadsafe before. It was a global singleton
which emitted signals in the first thread that happened to construct it.
Move it to a per-context singleton model where each GMainContext gets
its own GUnixMountMonitor. Monitor for the changes from the GLib worker
thread and dispatch the results to each context with an active monitor.

Deprecate g_unix_mount_monitor_set_rate_limit() and turn it into a
no-op.
This function doesn't behave as advertised. It only controls rate
limiting for filesystem-based monitors. It has no impact over reporting
mount changes on Linux, for example, because those are based on polling
for changes in /proc (which doesn't use filesystem monitors). It also
has no impact on Mac OS because a library interface is used there.
This was added in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=521946 in
order to be used by HAL, which is effectively dead. udisks no longer
uses this code at all.

This is a singleton, but we have a function called _new() to get it.
What's worse is that the documentation makes no mention of this, and
actually specifically says that a new monitor will be created each time.

Since all element markup is now gone from the doc comments,
we can turn off the gtk-doc sgml mode, which means that from
now on, docbook markup is no longer allowed in doc comments.
To make this possible, we have to replace all remaining
entities in doc comments by their replacement text, & -> &
and so on.
Make the options from an /etc/fstab entry available as public API -
this can be used to support options such as
comment=gvfs.name=Foo\040Bar
to e.g. set the name of an fstab mount in the UI to "Foo Bar".

On recent Linux distros /etc/mtab is just a symlink to /proc/mounts
and GFileMonitor does not work there because of how the kernel conveys
that the file changes.

We ignore entries with mountpoint of "swap" and "ignore". Add "none" to
that list, since Debian uses it.
Probably we should move to using our already-existing internal list of
things to ignore, but this patch is more minimally intrusive for now.

Commit afa82ae805 introduced a compilation
regression on BSD systems that use the sysctl(3) interface; we need to
declare the buffer len in _g_get_unix_mount_points()
BZ #659528
- getmntinfo can take struct statfs or statvfs depending on the
OS. Use getvfsstat and if not found getfsstat instead. Idea from
Dan Winship.
- g_local_file_query_filesystem_info(): use statvfs.f_fstypename
if available

Prepare for the future where udisks will use $XDG_USER_DIR/Volumes
instead of /media when mounting filesystems on behalf of the user.

- move choice of statfs vs statvfs from gio/glocalfile.c to configure.ac
- if statvfs is the choice, then don't check number of arguments to statfs()
- use choice in gio/gunixmounts.c as well

Move all the annotations over from gobject-introspection.
They will not be used directly by the introspection scanner for now,
instead they will be extracted by a script and updated manually
until introspection is properly integrated into the glib build
