* tests/refcount/signals.c: Use g_usleep() instead of sleep() for
portability.

* tests/refcount/closures.c: test high contention on closure
reference counts to trigger and catch non-atomic updates.

* tests/refcount/signals.c:
fixed up test and threading fundamentals. variables accessed from all
threads need to be volatile. context switches are enforced by using
g_thread_yield(), not g_usleep(1) which may result in busy waits on
some platforms. for testcode, always consider all warnings and
critical messages fatal. issue the currently running program on
stdout. improved progress indicators.
* tests/refcount/properties.c:
* tests/refcount/objects.c:
don't overdo the number of testing threads to keep the testing machine
usable, 2 threads can produce as much contention as 20 if executing the
same code.
* tests/refcount/signals.c: only start 1 thread per object. GObject
doesn't provide mutually exclusive object access, but only mutually
exclusive reference count modification.
* tests/Makefile.am: added closures test.

Make refcounting threadsafe by using atomic
operations. (#166020, Wim Taymans)
* gobject.c: Use a recursive lock to protect the
notify queue.
(g_object_unref): Get rid of g_object_last_unref and
do the last unref handling in g_object_unref.
(g_object_ref, g_object_unref): Use atomic operations.
* gsignal.c (struct _HandlerMatch): Use a full integer
for the ref_count field.
(handler_ref, handler_unref_R): Use atomic operations.
* gparam.c (g_param_spec_ref, g_param_spec_unref):
Use atomic operations instead of a lock to make the
refcounting threadsafe.
* gclosure.c (g_closure_ref, g_closure_unref): Use atomic
operations. This is more complicated here, since the
refcount is stored in a bitfield, so we also have
to access all other bitfield members atomically.
* gsignal.c (handlers_find): Read the meta_marshal flag
of the closure atomically.
* tests/Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add tests/refcount
* configure.in: Add tests/refcount
* tests/refcount/properties.c: Test property changes
from multiple threads.
* tests/refcount/signals.c: Test signal emission from
multiple threads.
* tests/refcount/objects.c: Test refcounting from
multiple threads.
* tests/refcount/objects2.c:
* tests/refcount/properties2.c: Tests to measure the
overhead of threadsafe refcounting.
* glib/giochannel.c (g_io_channel_ref, g_io_channel_unref):
Use atomic operations to make refcounting
threadsafe. (#166020, Wim Taymans)
