In some virtualization setups, ifindexes can end up becoming very
large, and so the existing code that assumes that *some* interface
must have an index less than 255 fails.
Fix this by explicitly looking for "lo" first. And then if that fails
(on Windows, or other systems where the loopback interface is not
called "lo"), try indexes up to 1024 rather than 255.

For some reason, IPv6 link-local multicast routing changes all the
time. GNetworkMonitorBase was already ignoring them for purposes of
emitting network-changed, but GNetworkMonitorNetlink would still
trigger a re-dump after getting one, so network-changed would end up
getting emitted anyway.
We need to re-get the size of tzi.DaylightName before we call
RegQueryValue() because the buffer might not have enough room to hold the
value for tzi.DaylightName that would be acquired by RegQueryValueExA(),
even though the size of tzi.DaylightName and tzi.StandardName is the same.
This is a pitfall of RegQueryValue()[1] as not doing this can result in an
ERROR_MORE_DATA (234) failure, causing the acquisition of tzi.DaylightName
to fail.
This will fix the gdatetime/equal test, amongst some other tests in
gdatetime, at least on certain non-English version of Windows.

If two GValues are transformable, it implies they are compatible,
so you do not need to check for compatibility yourself. Bump the
documentation to reflect this fact.

Adds some code examples how functions can be used. Adds a hint
to look at GQueue if access to the start and the end of the list
is required.
applying comments from Emmanuele Bassi and adds some more
improvements to clarify how functions should be used.

GLib has a pervasive assumption that function and data pointers are
basically interchangeable, which is true in all modern ABIs,
but not actually guaranteed by ISO C. If someone tries to use GLib on a
platform where function and data pointers are different sizes, fail early.

It is possible (but unlikely) that there will be a non-empty list of
pending dispatches when we remove the last ref from a GMainContext.
Make sure we drop the refs on the sources appropriately.
Add a (now-working) testcase that demonstrates how to trigger the issue.
