GListStore already has a g_list_store_insert_sorted function,
which can be used to keep the list sorted according to a fixed
sort function. But if the sort function changes (as e.g. with
sort columns in a list UI), the entire list needs to be
resorted. In that case, you want g_list_store_sort().

• Remove copies of function declarations from the explanation — if
people want those, they can follow links to the reference manual.
• Add markup to make C code more defined.
• Remove use of first person and irrelevant name dropping.

So that first-time users don’t fall into the trap of reading about the
gory memory layout details of GType and GObject when all they wanted to
do was derive a class.

Use G_DECLARE_INTERFACE and G_DEFINE_INTERFACE. Fix a couple of typos.
Add some comments to empty functions to make it obvious they’re
intentionally empty.

Restructure the section of the how-to which covers the header and source
code boilerplate for declaring and defining GObjects to use the new
G_DECLARE_*_TYPE macros. Present both final and derivable types.
Trim various supporting paragraphs.
Rename ‘class functions’ to ‘virtual functions’ to use consistent,
modern terminology.

This is meant for opaque, non-POSIX-like backends to indicate that the
URI is not persistent. Applications should look at
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_SYMLINK_TARGET for the persistent URI.
Examples of such backends could be a portal for letting sandboxed
applications access the file-system, or a database-backed storage like
Google Drive.
In these cases, the user visible file and folder names are different
from the real identifiers, used by the backend. So, a request to
create google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/New\ File, would actually
lead to google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/bar on the server even though
the user visible name is still "New File". Since the server-defined URI
is persistent and sanity-checked by the backend, it is recommended that
applications switch to it as soon as possible. Backends will try to
keep a mapping from "fake" to "real" URIs, but those are only on a
best effort basis. They might not be persistent or have the same
guarantees as the "real" URIs.

Make it a little easier to find the GType conventions page, which I
guess should be the canonical guide to how to name things.
This adds a brief mention of the valid characters in a type name to the
conventions page.

This is a binding-friendly version of g_dbus_connection_register_object.
Based on a patch by Martin Pitt and the code of g_bus_watch_name_with_closures.

Add a property to GNetworkMonitor indicating if the network
is metered, e.g. subject to limitations set by service providers.
The default value is FALSE

Instead of just dropping address types that we're not specifically
handling we return a GNativeSocketAddress which is just a dummy
container for the stuct sockaddr.

This allows the caller to know when a socket has been bound so that
it can for instance set the SO_SENDBUF and SO_RECVBUF socket options
before listen is called

Fix a few typical problems, and also stop wrapping the inline definition
of g_steal_pointer in parens, since it is not necessary and it confuses
gtk-doc.
