Getting the canonical filename is a relatively common
operation when dealing with symbolic links.
This commit exposes GLocalFile's implementation of a
filename canonicalizer function, with a few additions
to make it more useful for consumers of it.
Instead of always assuming g_get_current_dir(), the
exposed function allows passing it as an additional
parameter.
This will be used to fix the GTimeZone code to retrieve
the local timezone from a zoneinfo symlink.
(Tweaked by Philip Withnall <withnall@endlessm.com> to drop g_autofree
usage and add some additional tests.)

There is no reason to disable this linker flags, and we are not going to
add this option in our meson build system, so remove it from autotools
too to be on par. If anyone complains with a valid use-case we can add
them back.
Keeping -Bsymbolc for now because it is used for refdbg and Debian has a
package that build glib with that flag.

It inserted the new items one position after the given one and inserted all new items
at the same position resulting in the items being in the reverse order of the
input array.
It was decided to make these behavioural changes because this function has according to
https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=g_list_store_splice only one real user (nautilus)
and it didn't do what one would expect from reading the documentation.

It was previously a copy–paste of G_VALUE_COLLECT, which is wrong,
because it’s the inverse function of G_VALUE_COLLECT. Document that, so
the whole thing is a little less confusing (but by no means perfect).

The monitor_path comes from g_file_get_path(), so should be freed with
g_free() rather than free(). This makes no difference because they are
the same function in practice, but using free() is a bit confusing.

If g_get_home_dir() calculated a NULL home directory (due to $HOME being
unset and /etc/passwd being inaccessible, for example due to an
overly-zealous LSM), it would call g_once_init_leave (&home_dir, NULL),
which would emit a critical and fail to leave the GOnce critical
section. That meant that the following call to g_get_home_dir() would
deadlock in g_once_init_enter().
Fix that by setting the home directory to a made-up value in such cases
(which the documentation handily already explicitly allows).
Thanks to Simon McVittie for the analysis leading to an easy patch.

This fix undefined symbol link error when building for non-glibc
platform. Applications must link on libintl, it is not a public
dependency of libglib.
On glibc platforms libintl is a not found dependency and is just ignored
by meson, so it doesn't hurt to always have it.

Fix various warnings regarding unused variables, duplicated
branches etc by adjusting the ifdeffery and some missing casts.
gnulib triggers -Wduplicated-branches in one of the copied files,
disable as that just makes updating the code harder.
The warning indicating missing features are made none fatal through
pragmas. They still show but don't abort the build.

This builds glib using meson/ninja/ccache with mingw-w64 on a Windows
machine.
The CI scripts expect a gitlab runner to exist with the "win32" tag
which uses the default "cmd" shell by default.
Before running the tests pacman is invoked to update the system
(potentially including bash etc, thus the extra step)
Then a login shell is started with CHERE_INVOKING to not change the
cwd and finally the test script is executed.

In https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=794555 the tests for
posix_memalign and stpcpy were extended to catch the case where
the compiler provides an incomplete builtin.
Under MSYS2 the example code still compiles and links while the real usage
of stpcpy fails to build. To prevent the MSYS2 gcc from using the builtin
versions pass -fno-builtin.

glib enables -Werror=format-nonliteral by default which is triggered
by the embedded gnulib (in vasnprintf.c). Disable that warning
for gnulib alone. The gnulib code is there to handle user provided

The winsock2-using test does work perfectly, however this is a new
thing that didn't exist in autotools-based builds of glib in the past.
Autotools builds used the generic case where values were just defined
to some agreed-upon numbers, and this is what all autotools-glib
binaries and binaries built against autotools-glib (since these
values go into public glibconfig.h header) use. At least one value,
G_POLLIN, is different, thus breaking ABI if some binaries are
built with autotools and the others are built with meson.
Force meson buildscript to use the same G_POLL* constant values
for Windows builds that autotools builds use.

g_desktop_app_info_load_from_keyfile() refuses to load .desktop files
where the executable doesn't exist. Therefore whether or not the .desktop
file added in commit 148995544 is actually considered during tests depends
on /usr/bin/flatpak being installed. This isn't a safe assumption to make,
so use /bin/sh to test filtering of "prefix" commands.

The executable name can be a useful bit of information to match on in
searches where it differs from the name (for example because the latter
is localised), but will produce surprising results where the real appli-
cation is executed by a shared binary (for example interpretors like
gjs or python, or sandboxes like flatpak).
Address this by adding a blacklist of binary names that are ignored
in search.
