Make some of the conversion functions a bit more friendly to allocation
failure.
Even though the glib policy is to abort() on allocation failure by
default, it can be quite helpful to return an allocation error for
functions already providing a GError.
I needed a safer g_utf16_to_utf8() to solve crash on big clipboard
operations with win32, related to rhbz#1017250 (and coming gdk handling
bug).

Warning C4819 in Visual Studio builds indicates an issue of Visual Studio
2005 and later running on East Asian locales of Windows, which likely
results in broken builds of GLib, Pango, GTK+, and possibly other GNOME
projects such as Cogl and Clutter (and is also an issue when building other
projects like QT and Firefox).
Treat this warning as an error as a result when building GLib-based items
on Visual Studio, and tell people how to remedy this issue correctly.
g_test_init() was calling _g_messages_set_exit_on_fatal() from
subprocesses, to make fatal log messages call _exit() rather than
abort(), but the function name is sort of confusing, and we don't
really need it anyway, since g_log() can just call g_test_subprocess()
instead and decide for itself.
Likewise, update g_assertion_message() to do the check itself, rather
than calling into gmessages to do it, and fix
g_assertion_message_expr() to also check whether it should exit or
abort. (Previously it always called abort(), although this didn't
actually matter since that was dead code until
test_nonfatal_assertions was added.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711800
g_test_set_nonfatal_assertions() was a no-op, because
g_assertion_message() wasn't actually checking the
test_nonfatal_assertions flag. Fix that and add a test.
Also, g_test_set_nonfatal_assertions() has to set test_mode_fatal to
FALSE as well, or else a failed assertion will cause the test program
to abort at the end of the failed test.
Also, belatedly add this and the new g_assert_* methods to the docs.

G_OS #ifdefs are only available once glibconfig.h has been
evaluated ; that is, after including glib headers.
Move this block down so it gets correctly evaluated.
Make it possible to skip the terminal-launching test simply
by setting DISPLAY= . Previously, you had to unset DISPLAY,
which is a little more cumbersome.

One testcase was launching appinfo-test from a GAppInfo that
does not have a filename. In this case, the G_LAUNCHED_DESKTOP_FILE
envvar is not exported. Make appinfo-test deal with that, without
spewing warnings.

The actions test tests the GSimpleActionGroup API. Maybe this
should be moved to use GActionMap, but for now, just disable
the deprecations.
There was also one test that wasn't actually hooked up, so
do that as well.
g_array_remove_range and g_byte_array_remove_range return
a pointer to the array, g_ptr_array_remove_range returns
void. Since it is pretty harmless, make it return the array
too.

When the function in the test program is inlined, all bets are
off whether the detection will work correctly or not. Make it
harder for the compiler to play games on us by making the
function recursive.

This is the sole piece of code in GLib where we make use of the
stack growing direction. And this test proves that we have been
getting the direction wrong all these years...
The signals queued while notify is frozen are emitted in
reverse order, while omitting duplicates. The lack of documentation
for this was pointed out in

Most _list_schemas() uses were to check for the availability
of a particular schema. g_settings_schema_source_lookup() is
a better way to do this.

The Makefile rules in glib-tap.mk were copied from an example that
assumed that all the test programs had names ending in ".test", so
they didn't actually have any effect for us and resulted in us still
using the standard automake test driver. Fix this so we actually do
use TAP now.

Declare that the previously-unused "..." argument to g_test_init() is
actually a NULL-terminated list of strings indicating testing options,
and add an option "no_g_set_prgname", which keeps g_test_init() from
calling g_set_prgname(). Then we can port glib/tests/option-argv0 to
use gtester, by passing that option.

In Windows development environments that have it, <unistd.h> is mostly
just a wrapper around several other native headers (in particular,
<io.h>, which contains read(), close(), etc, and <process.h>, which
contains getpid()). But given that some Windows dev environments don't
have <unistd.h>, everything that uses those functions on Windows
already needed to include the correct Windows header as well, and so
there is never any point to including <unistd.h> on Windows.
Also, remove some <unistd.h> includes (and a few others) that were
unnecessary even on unix.

Assume unix platforms support the original POSIX.1 standard.
Specifically, assume that if G_OS_UNIX, then we have chown(),
getcwd(), getgrgid(), getpwuid(), link(), <grp.h>, <pwd.h>,
<sys/types.h>, <sys/uio.h>, <sys/wait.h>, and <unistd.h>.
Additionally, since all versions of Windows that we care about also
have <sys/types.h>, we can remove HAVE_SYS_TYPES_H checks everywhere.
Also remove one include of <sys/times.h>, and the corresponding
configure check, since the include is not currently needed (and may
always have just been a typo for <sys/time.h>).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=710519
Assume all supported platforms implement C90, and therefore they
(correctly) implement atexit(), memmove(), setlocale(), strerror(),
and vprintf(), and have <float.h> and <limits.h>.
(Also remove the configure check testing that "do ... while (0)" works
correctly; the non-do/while-based version of G_STMT_START and
G_STMT_END was removed years ago, but the check remained. Also, remove
some checks that configure.ac claimed were needed for libcharset, but
aren't actually used.)
Note that removing the g_memmove() function is not an ABI break even
on systems where g_memmove() was previously not a macro, because it
was never marked GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL or listed in glib.symbols, so
it would have been glib-internal since 2004.

Remove workarounds for NeXTStep (last released in 1995), SunOS (1994),
HP-UX 9.x (1992) and 10.x (1995), OSF/1 / Digital UNIX / Tru64 UNIX
4.x (1999), and AIX 4.x (1999).
HP-UX 11 implements dlopen(), so dropping support for earlier versions
also lets us remove the HP-UX-specific gmodule-dld.

Since the initial addition of BeOS support in 1999, there has only
been one update to it (in 2005, and it wasn't even very big). GLib is
known to not currently build on Haiku (or presumably actual BeOS)
without additional patching, and the fact that there isn't a single
G_OS_BEOS check in gio/ is suspicious.
Additionally, other than the GModule implementation, all of the
existing G_OS_BEOS checks are either (a) "G_OS_UNIX || G_OS_BEOS", or
(b) random minor POSIXy tweaks (include this header file rather than
that one, etc), suggesting that if we were going to support Haiku, it
would probably be simpler to treat it as a special kind of G_OS_UNIX
(as we do with Mac OS X) rather than as its own completely different
thing.
So, kill G_OS_BEOS.

My application (hotssh) would like to get the resolved address from DNS,
before we start the connect().
We could add a new event, but it's easy enough to just cache it on the
GSocketConnection; this avoids any new API.
