With gcc and clang using -Wsign-conversion a related warning is generated
if code using glib 2.78.0 contains function g_assert_cmpint().
Warning is fixed by adding related casts. Related tests have been also
updated and will be also compiled with -Wsign-conversion to detect
related problems in future.
The pointer argument must not be `NULL` (though it can point to a
location which is zero/null-valued), so this should be `(not optional)`
not `(not nullable)`.
Spotted in !3577.

On FreeBSD /home is generally a symlink to /usr/home, so the relative
resolves to /usr/bin instead of /bin and `sh` can only be found in /bin
on FreeBSD. Fix this by resolving symlinks in the CWD first.
When building for CHERI with additional warning flags, implicitly
converting uintptr_t to an integer type that can't store a pointer
results in a compiler warnings. Silence two of these by adding
explicit casts.
Some compilers (e.g. CHERI LLVM) warn when casting a non-intptr_t integer
type to a pointer. The GSIZE_TO_POINTER() macro thus triggers warnings
which can be silence by casting to guintptr before gpointer.
NB: This macro must not be used to create valid pointers from a integer.
I had thought that because `g_source_destroy()` was called for the two
sources (cancel and timeout) in the `GTask` finalize function for a
threaded resolver operation, that it would be fine to use a plain
pointer in the source callbacks to point to the `GTask`.
That turns out to not be true: because the source callbacks are executed
in the GLib worker thread, and the `GTask` can be finalized in another
thread, it’s possible for a source callback (e.g. `cancelled_cb()`) to
be scheduled in the worker thread, then for the `GTask` to be finalized,
and then the source callback to continue execution and find itself
doing a use-after-free.
Fix that by using a weak ref to the `GTask` in the source callbacks,
rather than a plain pointer.

Fixes: #3105
The gutils-user-database.c is broken in two ways and currently doesn't test anything:
* It only overrides getpwuid, where the implementation used getpwnam_r if it exist, which should be every system for at least 20 years.
* It only partly cargo-culted setting the environment for the local and installed tests, but failed to actually set the environment for either.
