We had two compensating bugs here. We didn't correctly clear the
error indicator after testing a test-case that calls g_test_fail(),
which meant we were leaving the error set to exit status 1 when
falling through to the next test; and then we didn't check the exit
status of the next test, but instead assumed that g_spawn_sync()
would fail (it does not).

Let's explain the advantages of relying on GTlsConnection to perform
certificate verification.
Also, document that the issuer property is a little tricky, because the
issuer certificate might not be the certificate that actually gets used
in final certification path building. This is very unexpected to anybody
who is not an expert.
Because TLS certificate verification is extremely complex, the lookup
issuer function may be tempting to misuse even by experienced
developers. There is a notion that the issuer certificate will always be
used in the final certification path, but it's just not always true.
Trying to make security decisions based on the results of this function is
a trap, so let's document that.
It turns out that old versions of glib-networking actually reordered the
certificate chain to match the final verification path. This no longer
happens since a long time ago, because it was a buggy mess. Instead, we
rely on the TLS library to build the final verification path. Their path
building is not very good, but at least it's consistent. The point of
these doc updates is to clarify that only the TLS library can make
security decisions.
Document that HTTP requests may be performed to look up missing
certificates.
Finally, let's document that certificate verification using GTlsDatabase
cannot be as smart as certificate verification performed directly by
GTlsConnection.
g_win32_package_parser_enum_packages() reads beyond the end of a buffer
when doing a memcpy. With app verifier enabled on Windows, it causes
the application to crash on startup.
This change limits the memcpy to the size of the source string.

You need to separate the first entry in the list from the preceding
paragraph, and you should add a space before the enumerating symbol.
GTK-Doc accepts a very lax Markdown syntax, but any other tool parsing
our documentation will likely fail.
The value should be initialized to NULL before calling
g_win32_registry_key_get_value_w(), to ensure that cleanup
can be done unconditionally afterward.
When rendering the contents of the GLib documentation stored inside the
introspection data, a common behaviour is to take the first paragraph as
a summary of the symbol being documented.
The documentation is assumed to be in Markdown format, which means:
- paragraphs must be separated by newlines
- lines that have an indentation of four or more spaces are considered
code blocks
- lines that start with a `#` are considered titles
This means we need to slightly tweak the documentation in our sources to
ensure that it can be rendered appropriately by tools that are not
gtk-doc.

Previously, these would have done 2**32 replacements, and the first one
would have consumed 6GB of memory in the process. They now match what
Python `str.replace()` does.

This matches the behaviour of Python `str.replace()`, and avoids carrying
out 2**32 replacements before n wraps around, which is almost certainly
not what we want.

These are taken from another project (steam-runtime-tools) where I
implemented a similar replace method before realising that more recent
GLib versions had g_string_replace().

To ensure that the watch is properly re-set every time, call
watch_keys() from the watch callback. Previously the watch was only
renewed after a data update was done in a worker thread, which made
no sense, since the update function was implemented in such a way
that it can (and should) be re-triggered on each key change, until
the changes stop coming, and that can only happen if we renew
the registry watcher right away.
If a key watch is renewed from the key watch callback, it results
in the callback being NULL, since we clear it after we call it.
Rearrange the function to make sure that the changes done by the
callback function are preserved properly.
This function can, in fact, return STATUS_SUCCESS. We shouldn't
assert that it doesn't.
For now interpret it just like STATUS_PENDING (i.e. APC will be called),
see how it goes (it isn't documented how the function behaves in this
case, we have to play it by ear).
Note that while we *can* use a better-documented RegNotifyChangeKeyValue() here,
it communicates back to us via event objects, which means that the registry
watcher would have to interact with the main loop directly and insert its
events (plural; one event per key) there. That would make the API more complicated.
Whereas the internal NT function communicates by calling an APC - we're good
as long as something somewhere puts the thread in alertable state.
