There’s a minor race condition between cancellation of a `GCancellable`,
and disposal/finalisation of a `GCancellableSource` in another thread.
Thread A Thread B
g_cancellable_cancel(C)
→cancellable_source_cancelled(C, S)
g_source_unref(S)
cancellable_source_dispose(S)
→→g_source_ref(S)
→→# S is invalid at this point; crash
Thankfully, the `GCancellable` sets `cancelled_running` while it’s
emitting the `cancelled` signal, so if `cancellable_source_dispose()` is
called while that’s high, we know that the thread which is doing the
cancellation has already started (or is committed to starting) calling
`cancellable_source_cancelled()`.
Fix the race by resurrecting the `GCancellableSource` in
`cancellable_source_dispose()`, and signalling this using
`GCancellableSource.resurrected_during_cancellation`. Check for that
flag in `cancellable_source_cancelled()` and ignore cancellation if it’s
set.
The modifications to `resurrected_during_cancellation` and the
cancellable source’s refcount have to be done with `cancellable_mutex`
held so that they are seen atomically by each thread. This should not
affect performance too much, as it only happens during cancellation or
disposal of a `GCancellableSource`.

Fixes: #1841
`g_assert()` is compiled out if `G_DISABLE_ASSERT` is defined, and
`g_assert_*()` gives more detailed failure messages.

Those tests seem to regularly fail because a timeout (which we're
measuring outside the function that times out) is too long, which can
happen when the system is busy.
Don't run those tests unless "thorough" tests are requested. This
disables those tests by default.
Bail out! GLib-GIO:ERROR:../gio/tests/socket.c:1167:test_timed_wait: assertion failed (poll_duration < 112000): (114254 < 112000)
Bail out! GLib-GIO:ERROR:../gio/tests/cancellable.c:167:on_mock_operation_ready: assertion failed (error == (g-io-error-quark, 19)): error is NULL
Commit f975858e86 removed the NULL check in g_cancellable_cancel() by
accident which makes it crash when called with NULL.
Add the check back and add a test so this doesn't happen again.
Fixes#1710
Very many testcases, some GLib tools (resource compiler, etc) and
GApplication were calling g_type_init().
Remove those uses, as they are no longer required.

The test was assuming that all cancelled ops would finish within a
certain amount of time, but this often failed under valgrind. Instead,
just run the loop until all of the ops have actually finished.

* Update documentation to note that GCancellable can be used
concurrently by multiple operations.
* Add documentation to g_cancellable_reset that behavior is
undefined if called from within cancelled handler.
* Add test for multiple concurrent operations using the same
cancellable.
