When building a typelib, the values of constants need to be converted
from a string format (from the GIR) to a binary format. This is
currently done, for all numeric types, using `g_ascii_strto*()`
functions, but with minimal validation. String values which are not
representable as binary numbers are either silently truncated or
clamped.
`-Wfloat-conversion` has flagged that this happens for floats – a
double-precision return from `g_ascii_strtod()` is implicitly cast down
to a float.
While we should ideally have some better error handling so that
conversion to a typelib fails if a constant is not representable in the
typelib, this is a problem for *all* numeric types and not just `float`,
so add an explicit cast to ignore the error for now.
In practice there probably isn’t a problem for any numeric types here,
as there should be validation of the string value when the GIR is
generated anyway.

Basically various trivial instances of the following MSVC compiler
warning:
```
../gio/gio-tool-set.c(50): warning C4267: '=': conversion from 'size_t' to 'int', possible loss of data
```

All of the indications in the surrounding code are that `node` should
never be `NULL`, but the error handling for it did actually allow it to
be `NULL` iff its `parent` was also `NULL`.
That made scan-build (kind of legitimately) warn about `NULL` pointer
dereferences of `node`.
Avoid that by unambiguously using an assertion to prevent `NULL` nodes.

Eventually, we want to move to using `GType` directly for everything,
since `GIBaseInfo` and its subclasses are all using `GTypeInstance`.
However, that requires quite a lot of changes and we’re about to hit the
API freeze.
So do the smallest set of changes possible to remove `GIInfoType` and
related functions from the public API, which gives us freedom to make
more changes later without breaking API.

`GIIrNodeField` is built dynamically at runtime (rather than being
mmapped from disk), so its types can accurately reflect their runtime
semantics, rather than an on-disk format.
As part of this, switch from `atoi()` to `g_ascii_string_to_unsigned()`
for parsing the relevant fields from a GIR XML file. This means we now
get error handling for invalid integers.
This also includes some offset validity changes which were forgotten
from commit 515b3fc1dc.

We are using various indexes types, but not always using the correct
sign or size, so let's adapt this to ensure we're consistent with the
values we're comparing with.
Now that libgirepository uses `GI_AVAILABLE_IN_*` macros, that’s what
controls symbol visibility. The `_` prefixes are redundant, and out of
keeping with the rest of GLib.

Rather than a mix of structs being in `GI` and their methods being in
`g_`.
We’ve chosen not to use the `g_` namespace because a number of the
libgirepository class names are quite generic, so we’d end up with
confusing symbols like `GScopeType` and `GArgument`.

Add the SPDX license runes to all the files which have an obvious
