From grefcount.h, in order to disable warnings when G_DISABLE_CHECKS is
defined, we need to make use of the GCC-isque-only __extension__ for it
to work. This means that in the saturation tests, we can only expect no
warnings to show if we are building on GCC-isque compilers with
G_DISABLE_CHECKS defined.
This will fix the refcount-macro test on Visual Studio builds at least.
Using the generic marshaller has drawbacks beyond performance. One such
drawback is that it breaks the stack unwinding from the Linux kernel due
to having unsufficient data to walk past ffi_call_unixt64. That means that
performance profiling by application developers looks grouped among
seemingly unrelated code paths.
While we can't fix the kernel unwinding here, we can provide proper
c_marshallers and va_marshallers for objects within Gio so that
performance profiling of applications is more reliable.

If c_marshaller is provided during g_signal_new() registration, the
automatic va_marshaller will not be set. If we leave the c_marshaller as
NULL in the simple cases, both a c_marshaller and va_marshaller will be
set for us.
This is particularly helpful when dealing with stack traces from Linux
perf, which often cannot unwind the stack beyond the ffi_call_unix64
stack-frame on x86_64.

If we specify a c_marshaller, g_signal_newv() will never assign an
va_marshaller automatically. So either use NULL (for simple cases), or
specify both to avoid the generic performance penalty.
This ensures that D-Bus connections established with unix:dir and
unix:path addresses actually work properly. Previously, we only tested
unix:tmpdir and TCP addresses.
This is not going to have much any effect currently since stop() just
disconnects a signal handler (that is going to be disconnected in
finalize anyway) and stops the socket service (that is going to be
destroyed in finalize), but it makes sense to do here for robustness.
unix:dir= addresses are exactly the same as unix:tmpdir= addresses,
already supported by GDBus, except they forbid use of abstract sockets.
This is convenient for situations where abstract sockets are
impermissible, such as when a D-Bus client inside a network namespace
needs to connect to a server running in a different network namespace.
An abstract socket cannot be shared between two processes in different
network namespaces.
Applications could use unix:path= addresses instead, so this is only a
convenience, but there's no good reason not to support unix:dir=.
Currently it is not supported simply because unix:dir= is a relatively
recent addition to the D-Bus spec.
example lists [(1, 2), (3, 4.0)], but mentions numbers
1 and 4 being parsed as integrers, this seems wrong as
4.0 its explicitly parsed as double.

The build artifacts from earlier jobs in the pipeline all use the
`_build` directory. When they are copied in to the scan-build job, they
are probably marked as read-only. This means that the `meson scan-build`
run can’t write to `_build/meson-logs/meson-log.txt` and fails.

It's somewhat unrealistic to use a GDBusServer without a
GDBusAuthObserver, because most D-Bus servers want to be like the
standard session bus (the owning user can connect) rather than being
like the standard system bus (all users can connect, the server is a
security boundary, and many bugs are security vulnerabilities).

This is simpler and more robust than DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1, which relies
on assumptions about random numbers and a secure home directory.

Authentication is about proving who I am; authorization is about
whether, given the knowledge of who I am, I am allowed to do something.
GDBusServer and GDBusConnection carry out authentication automatically,
but rely on the library user to carry out authorization.
