Either g_type_register_static_simple (used by G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED)
and G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE use automatic variables for GTypeInfo and
GInterfaceInfo structs, while tutorials and source code often use
static variables. This commit consistently adopts the former method.

* Represents an immutable reference counted block of memory.
* This is basically the internal glib GBuffer structure exposed,
renamed, and with some additional capabilities.
* The GBytes name comes from python3's immutable 'bytes' type
* GBytes can be safely used as keys in hash tables, and have
functions for doing so: g_bytes_hash, g_bytes_equal
* GByteArray is a mutable form of GBytes, and vice versa. There
are functions for converting from one to the other efficiently:
g_bytes_unref_to_array() and g_byte_array_free_to_bytes()
* Adds g_byte_array_new_take() to support above functions

Allow passing --identifier-prefix and --symbol-prefix to glib-mkenums,
with the same meanings as in g-ir-scanner, to allow fixing up the enum
name parsing globally rather than needing to add a /<* *>/ override to
each enum.

Some links were broken due to typos, because functionality was removed
in GLib 2.0 or for various other reasons. Fix up as many of them as is
reasonable.
Commit ab0e9dbfa7 introduced some changes
to the documentation Makefiles designed to clean-up the process of
deciding which headers get scanned for the docs.
Unfortunately, the gtk-doc Makefile doesn't use HFILE_GLOB for actually
generating the docs -- only for knowing when it needs to redo the
generation. Because of this, we need to use IGNORE_HFILES or otherwise
we get hundreds of symbols in the *-unused.txt files.
Revert the changes that that commit made to the docs Makefiles (but
leave the generation of the *-public-headers.txt files in place).
The implementation of GValue is not public or documented. When
allocated on the stack, initializing a GValue is usually done as
documented with:
GValue value = { 0, };
There is lot code around (including WebKit) that added all the missing
fields, resulting in this ugly and non-obvious:
GValue value = { 0, { { 0 } } };
However, this doesn't play nice with -Wmissing-field-initializers for
example. Thus, G_VALUE_INIT.

Rather than having the gtk-doc build machinery have a list of header
files to exclude, change the GLib build to dump a list of public
header files generated from the maintained Makefile.am files for
each of glib/, gobject/, gio/.
Also, for glib, always install glib-unix.h, even on non-Unix
platforms, for the same reason we install gwin32.h even on Unix.

Since we added g_object_notify_by_pspec(), an efficient way to install
and notify properties relies on storing the GParamSpec pointers inside
a static arrays, like we do for signal identifiers.
Instead of multiple calls to g_object_class_install_property(), we
should have a single function to take the static array of GParamSpecs
and iterate it.

Since using the function pointer version muddles the memory management
requirements of language bindings, we should implement a GClosure-based
variant on top of g_object_bind_property_full().
