The `gio move` tool has plenty of options, which are listed by
`gio help move`, however, the `man gio` page doesn't mention them.
Let's add these missing options to the man page as well.
dep-list.c isn’t generated, but contains non-documentation gtk-doc-style
comments which are probably better left in place, since the code is
partially external to GLib.

The g_app_info_launch_uris_async() and g_app_info_launch_uris_finish()
functions are crucial to fix g_app_info_launch_default_for_uri_async()
to be really asynchronous.
This patch also adds GDesktopAppInfo implementation of that vfuncs.
The implementation may still use some synchronous calls to local MIME DB.

This allows returning WOULD_BLOCK without allocating a GError, and

Similarly to g_source_set_name(), this sets a name on a GTask for
debugging and profiling. Importantly, this name is propagated to the
GSource for idle callbacks for the GTask, ending the glorious reign of
`[gio] complete_in_idle_cb`.
The name can be queried using g_task_get_name(). Locking is avoided by
only allowing the name to be set before the GTask is used from another
thread.
Includes tests.

Currently, there isn't API to determine root path for mounts created
over bind operation (or btrfs subvolumes). This causes issues to our
volume monitors if there is multiple mounts for one device, which can
happen with libmount-based implementation currently. Let's propagate
root path from libmount over g_unix_mount_get_root_path, so we can
handle this somehow in our volume monitors.

The X-Flatpak-RenamedFrom key is used in .desktop files to identify past
names for the desktop file. It is defined to be a list of strings.
However, there was previously no correct way to retrieve a list of
strings from the GKeyFile wrapped by GDesktopAppInfo, short of
re-parsing the file with GKeyFile.
Note that doing something like:
g_strsplit (g_desktop_app_info_get_string (...), ";", -1)
is not correct: the raw value "a\;b;" represents the one-element list
["a;b"], but g_key_file_get_string() rejects the sequence "\;", and so
g_desktop_app_info_get_string() returns NULL in this case. (Of course, a
.desktop file with a semicolon in its name is a pathological case.)
Add g_desktop_app_info_get_string_list(), a trivial wrapper around
g_key_file_get_string_list(), similar to g_desktop_app_info_get_string()
and co.
The change from g_key_file_free() to g_key_file_unref() in the test is
needed because g_key_file_free() clears the contents of the keyfile.
This is fine for all the fields which are eagerly loaded and copied into
GDesktopAppInfo, but not when we want to access arbitrary stuff from the
keyfile.
This is detected by Debian's Lintian tool, which suggests
"allows one to" as a replacement. I've rephrased the documentation
in question to avoid both of those.

There are many cases where a default TLS database is not able to be
defined within the constraints of a system. For example glib-networking
(or glib-openssl) cannot retrieve the default certificate store on iOS
or Android and need to be initialized from a cert file of certificates
bundled with the application.
Previously GStreamer was relying on a custom patch to glib-networking to
populate the default database from the file pointed to by the
CA_CERTIFICATES environment variable however the mechanism that enabled
this was recently remove from glib-networking.
Adding a more generic g_tls_backend_set_default_database() API allows
application developers to override the default database using their own
certificates as well as allowing equivalent functionality on Android/iOS
(or others) as on the default database handling Linux.

meson.build was already passing --rebuild-types option but not
Makefile.am. Copy the IGNORE_HFILES list from meson.build because it was
outdated in Makefile.am and it's causing build issues when using the
generated gio.types file because it would contain win32 types when
building on linux.
Add an app-launching function which allows standard file descriptors
to be passed to the child process.
This will be used by gnome-shell to pass systemd journal descriptors
as stdout/stderr. gnome-shell's child_setup function can then be
eliminated, which will enable use of the posix_spawn optimized
gspawn codepath for desktop app launching.
These generate basic .c and .h files containing the GDBusInterfaceInfo
for a D-Bus introspection XML file, but no other code (no skeletons,
proxies, GObjects, etc.).
This is useful for projects who want to describe their D-Bus interfaces
using introspection XML, but who wish to implement the interfaces
manually (for various reasons, typically because the skeletons generated
by gdbus-codegen are too simplistic and limiting). Previously, these
projects would have had to write the GDBusInterfaceInfo manually, which
is painstaking and error-prone.
The new --interface-info-[body|header] options are very similar to
--[body|header], but mutually exclusive with them.

GVfsUDisks2VolumeMonitor handles x-gvfs-hide/x-gvfs-show mount options
used to overwrite our heuristics whether the mount should be shown, or
hidden. Unfortunately, it works currently only for mounts with
corresponding fstab entries, because the options are read over
g_unix_mount_point_get_options. Let's introduce g_unix_mount_get_options
to allow reading of the options for all sort of mounts (e.g. created
over pam_mount, or manually mounted).

This is a bit awkward. A more elegant solution would have
ignored *all* headers and then *un-ignored* some of them
if some conditions were met.
Sadly, we cannot really ignore all headers and then "unignore"
them: that's not how arrays in Meson work.

Similarly to how glib-compile-resources can call xmllint to eliminate
whitespace in XML files to reduce their size inside a GResource, we can
use json-glib-format to achieve the same result.
The mechanism for using json-glib-format is the same, with a separate
environment variable if we want to direct glib-compile-resources to a
version of json-glib-format that is not the one in the PATH.

This is a variant of g_file_get_path() which returns a const string to
the caller, rather than transferring ownership.
I've been carrying `gs_file_get_path_cached()` in libgsystem and it
has seen a lot of use in the ostree and flatpak codebases. There are
probably others too.
I think language bindings like Python/Gjs could also use this to avoid
an extra malloc (i.e. we could transparently replace
`g_file_get_path()` with `g_file_peek_path()`.

In order to enrich information displayed by GApplication command line
handling when --help is invoked, 3 new methods are proposed:
. g_application_set_option_context_parameter_string
. g_application_set_option_context_summary
. g_application_set_option_context_description
Those methods interact with the GApplication's internal GOptionContext
which is created for command line parsing in g_application_parse_command_line.
(please refer to the GOptionContext class for more information about option
context, parameter string, summary and description.)
To illustrate the 3 methods, an example is provided:
. gapplication-example-cmdline4.c
