This avoids the generated types (e.g. ExampleAnimal, ExampleCat,
ExampleObject and ExampleObjectManagerClient) being referenced in the
core gio docs. This was requested by Matthias.

.. and add a C setter to do this. Also make the C getter return a
reference since the property may be set from another thread. Also
change the constructor to _not_ take a GDBusConnection since this is
something you almost always want to do _after_ creating it. The
API/ABI break is fine as there has never been a GLib release with this
type.

_GNU_SOURCE must be defined before including any other (system)
header, so defining it in glib-unix.h (and hoping no one has included
anything else before that) is wrong. And the "#define _USE_GNU"
workaround for this problem in gnetworkingprivate.h is even wronger
(and still prone to failure anyway due to single-include guards).
Fix this by defining _GNU_SOURCE in config.h when building against
glibc. In theory this is bad because new releases of glibc may include
symbols that conflict with glib symbols, which could then cause
compile failures. However, most people only see new releases of glibc
when they upgrade their distro, at which point they also generally get
new releases of gcc, which have new warnings/errors to clean up
anyway.

Specific changes
- Use get_type(), not get_gtype() for the GType function
- so we need to use the lower-case name type_ for properties called type
- Don't return a function pointer, just make the function returned
available instead
- Add (type) annotations in constructors so g-ir-scanner detects them as such
- Add (transfer none) annotations to property getters
- Add (out) annotations to D-Bus method call functions

A fairly typical pattern is to have code that does
foo_set_bar (object, "");
if (some_condition)
{
foo_set_bar (object, "yes");
}
where some_condition is often true every time @object is updated.
With this code, bar is essentially always "yes" but because of how
gdbus-codegen works, useless PropertiesChanged events got scheduled
and sent out. With this patch, we avoid that by always keeping the
original value around and comparing it only when we deem it's time to
send out the ::PropertiesChanged signal (typically in an idle but can
be forced by the user via flush()).
Also add a test case for this.

Older versions of libdbus would let you construct an invalid
DBusMessage, but that's a bug, which will be fixed in 1.4.8/1.5.0.
Instead, construct a valid message of the same length, then replace
substrings in the serialized blob with their invalid counterparts.

... this was causing a GDBus test-case to fail so now that it is
fixed, also reenable the test case.

And use this for a) documentation purposes; and b) to preserve C ABI
when an interface is extended. See

for more details. Also add test cases for this.

Several flaws were pointed out by Shaun McCance. We were
leaking handled arguments, and we were mishandling the last
argument, and we were actually skipping arguments too.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647031
When using GOption to handle commandlines, we need to disable
the builtin help handling, since it calls exit(). Also mention
this particular pitfall in the docs.
We were getting our length zero, yet NULL-terminated arrays in
a twist in some places. Stop passing around ignored length arguments
at the same time.
