Inserts a paragraph in the start of the description
explaining briefly the concept of GVariant as a
variant datatypes using examples and explaining
a few use cases where GVariant can be useful.

The current statfs() compilation tests all fail because statfs() expects
the first argument to be non-null. Pass a dummy path instead of NULL to
satisfy the compiler.

This was confusing some static analysis. Through canonicalize_filename()
at construction time, we guaranteed that ->filename is canonical and
absolute, so g_path_skip_root() should never fail.

This ensures that the generated file is always the same (not dependent
on the build machine's environment), making the build reproducible.
Thanks to Jérémy Bobbio <lunar@debian.org> for the Debian bug report and
patch.

find_file_in_data_dirs() doesn’t actually clear output_path to NULL on
failure, so this prevents a use-after-free on that (fd == -1) error
path.
Spotted by Coverity (CID: #1352981).
Laszlo Ersek said: "The length check is off by one (in the safe direction); it
should be (nchars >= 2). The processing should be active for the wide string
L"\r\n" -- resulting in the empty wide string --, I believe."

Add a generic script, pc_base.py, which can be utilized to obtain path
info, along with user-input version info, which can be used to generate
pkg-config .pc files. Also enhance replace.py a bit so that it can also
be used in the future to replace multiple items in a file in one shot.
This is done to make building introspection files easier, as it depends
much on the pkg-config .pc files to work.
Update the project files so that when Python is available, we can generate
the full, usable .pc files when we complete and 'install' the builds, and
copy them to appropriate locations so that pkg-config can be set to find
them easily.
If the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR environment variable is set, we are being told by
the OS that this directory exists and is appropriately configured
already. In the fallback case of ~/.cache/, however, the directory may
not yet exist.
Rework the logic of this function a little so that we only check for the
environment variable once. If it is not set, we will fall back to the
cache directory, and mkdir() it to make sure that it exists.
Meanwhile, remove a statement from the reference documentation that
promises a warning in this case (which has never been true) and replace
it with a statement that applications can rely on the directory
existing.
This change prevents each user of this API from having to check for the
directory for themselves; an example of that can be seen in bug 763274.

Previously, calling g_array_remove_range(array, 0, array->len) on an
empty array would result in a precondition failure in
g_array_remove_range(), as the given start index (0), was not strictly
less than the array length (0).
Allow the index to equal the array length, so that zero elements can be
removed from any array. A subsequent check makes sure that the array
length is not overflowed by the index + length.
