When not logged in, the New Issue URL only redirects to an unhelpful
login page while the Issues page allows you to search for existing
issues and still offers a "New Issue" button.
For historical reasons, some doc blocks are included in an ancillary
file. Add it to the list of sources parsed by g-ir-scanner, to increase
the coverage of various macros.
Fixes: #3372
- Do not refer to people’s expectation, they can wildly differ.
- Do not link to `strcompress`, that confusingly does not support `\a`. Link Wikipedia instead.
- Reiterate the C escape sequences from string section, they are not that many.
- Mention escaping newline and other characters (also copied from string section).
- Mention Unicode escapes not being supported to contrast with strings.
GVariant Text Format section on bytestrings links to `g_strcompress`
but what it does was only briefly described in the header file,
which is not visible in the gi-docgen-built reference. To really
find out one would have to guess to continue through the rabbit hole
to `g_strescape`.
Let’s merge the description from the header and elaborate on it a bit.
Saying that it inserts a backslash before special character is incorrect
for anything but a double quote and backslash itself. Instead, it replaces
the special characters with a C escape sequence.
Let’s fix that and also make it less C focused by using Unicode names
of the characters instead of assuming everyone knows C escape sequences
by heart.
Now sysprof can be enabled by default in distros that use
-Dauto_features=enabled or for developers who already have sysprof
installed, while it's still disabled for developers who do not have
sysprof installed. See #3354
Now systemtap can be enabled by default in distros that use
-Dauto_features=enabled or for developers who already have systemtap
installed, while it's still disabled for developers who do not have
systemtap installed. See #3354
Now dtrace can be enabled by default in distros that use
-Dauto_features=enabled or for developers who already have dtrace
installed, while it's still disabled for developers who do not have
dtrace installed. See #3354
Since we are now building introspection files for GLib while building
GLib, so we want to make sure that we indeed load the freshly-built
DLLs when running g-ir-scanner, so we add the various needed subdirs
(and if needed, subprojects), to set the GI_EXTRA_BASE_DLL_DIRS
envvar so that g-ir-scanner will look for the newly-built GLib DLLs.
Ideally, upstream g-ir-scanner will need to be updated accordingly to do
something similar to what we are doing here, but this is needed until
the time that we require a g-ir-scanner that contains the update.
This will also fix the g-ir-scanner erroring out when there is no
pre-existing GLib on the system, as the needed DLLs are now found.

While backporting CVE-2024-34397 fixes I noticed that this comment
claimed that the reference count is immutable after construction, which
is clearly not true. In fact the reference count is the only
mutable field.

To avoid adding a large block of macros to gdbusprivate.h, I've only
added a subset of the well-known error names. I chose to draw the
line by adding constants for the errors emitted via their string names
in GDBusConnection, but not for error names that are only mentioned
in `gdbuserror.c` or in tests.

Most D-Bus interfaces are domain-specific, but these interfaces from the
D-Bus Specification are intended to be commonly used in any context for
which they are found to be appropriate.
Most of these use `gdbusprivate.h`. One exception is that
`gio/tests/gdbus-example-*` redefine the constants locally: due to these
files' dual role as part of the unit tests and as sample code, it seems
desirable to ensure that they can still be compiled outside GLib.

These well-known flags and replies are part of the D-Bus Specification,
and also exist with the same names in libdbus header files.
Moving them into a private header means that unit tests like
gdbus-proxy-threads and gdbus-subscribe don't have to reinvent them.

Unlike the various functions to call D-Bus methods, these sort their
arguments in a non-obvious order (bus name, interface, signal, path),
presumably aiming to sort the most-likely-to-be-used arguments first.

These function arguments are arranged in the obvious order from
conceptually largest to smallest: (bus name, path, interface, method).

This test was subscribing to the NameOwnerChanged signal with an
incorrect object path, so the callback would never be called. In this
particular case it doesn't actually matter, because the callback does
nothing anyway (the purpose of this particular test was to test that
the user-data is freed on unsubscription).

It's just better than a list of strings for various reasons, but mostly
here it allows also to avoid copying the lists but making the
ownership clearer through references
In this way the module can survive without that the parser is fully
alive.
At the moment a module has not a ref-count system, but this makes things
clearer when we return the module from a parser.
In case the node was pushed to a non-empty node stack, then we were not
tracking it in the entries list, and so nothing was freeing it on
destruction.
As per this, once parsing is done, we can free it or we'd leak.
