This patch adds support for instantiable fundamental object types,
which are not GObject based. This is mostly interesting for being
able to support GstMiniObject's which are extensivly used in GStreamer.
Includes a big test case to the Everything module (inspired by
GstMiniObject) which should be used by language bindings who wishes to
test this functionallity.
This patch increases the size of the typelib and breaks compatibility
with older typelibs.

Any annotation where the key has a dot in the name will go into the
attribute list. For example
* @arg: (foo.bar baz): some arg
the parameter @arg will get the attribute with key foo.bar and value
baz. This also works for.
* Returns: (foo.bar2 baz2): the return value
Also add tests for this new feature.
