G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DOS_IS_MOUNTPOINT allows mountpoints
(NTFS reparse points with IO_REPARSE_TAG_MOUNT_POINT tag) to
be told apart from symlinks (NTFS reparse points with
IO_REPARSE_TAG_SYMLINK tag), even though both are reported
by glib as "symlinks".
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DOS_REPARSE_POINT_TAG allows the exact
reparse tag value to be obtained by the user. This way
even more exotic reparse points can be identified and
handled by the user (glib itself currently has no code
to work with any reparse points that are not symlinks
or mountpoints).
Extended path prefix looks like "\\?\",
and NT object path prefix looks like "\??\".
Strip them only if they are followed by a character
(any character) and a colon (:), indicating that
it's a DOS path with a drive.
Otherwise stripping such prefix might result in a patch
that looks like a relative path.
For example, "\\?\Volume{GUID}\" becomes "Volume{GUID}\",
which is a valid directory name.
Currently it's up to the user to make sense of such paths.
Partial revert of commit a7a6449f4d.
Checking for the availability of m4 for installing m4 macro files
creates an implicit dependency on m4 even if GLib does not need it; this
prevents building GLib and then installing Autotools in order to build a
project that depends on GLib.
Closes#1520
It wasn’t being tested. It should behave the same as
g_list_model_get_item(), so write a wrapper for the two.
This brings the code coverage of glistmodel.c up to 100%.

When setting the GListStore:item-type property we need to check the
GType is a GObject (or subclass). There was some explicit code for this,
but when actually testing it and looking at the code coverage, it turns
out that the GObject property type check coming from
g_param_spec_gtype() does everything we want, and the custom
g_critical() can never be hit. So turn it into an assertion.

When running a test as a subprocess and matching its output, it’s very
annoying for GLib to tell you that the output didn’t match your pattern,
*but not actually say what the output was*. Fix that.

This is also faster, though I doubt anyone's able to measure it.
The previous code was a more complicted way to do the same thing and it
was likely written the more complicated way because it fell out commit

Expands to the GNU C fallthrough statement attribute if the compiler is gcc.
This allows declaring case statement to explicitly fall through in switch
statements. To enable this feature, use -Wimplicit-fallthrough during
compilation.
It might not be immediately obvious that this is the case. Let's record
it in the description of `GTimeVal` itself and also in
`g_time_val_from_iso8601`.
We also drop an incorrect statement in the documentation for
`g_time_val_from_iso8601` stating that years up to 3000 were supported;
this is also not true for the same reason.
Related: #1509
On 32 bit systems, the size of a long might be the same as the size of
an int. In that case, we won't be able to get an overflow when
converting from a GTimeVal to a time_t. Skip the test for this in that
case.
Closes#1509
We already set -Wformat=2, which implies -Wformat-security, so there’s
no need to test for and set -Wformat-security separately.
The test for -Wformat-security never worked anyway, since gcc complains
if it’s specified without also setting -Wformat to some value. The
complaint causes configure.ac/meson.build to assume the option doesn’t
work.

There are many cases where a default TLS database is not able to be
defined within the constraints of a system. For example glib-networking
(or glib-openssl) cannot retrieve the default certificate store on iOS
or Android and need to be initialized from a cert file of certificates
bundled with the application.
Previously GStreamer was relying on a custom patch to glib-networking to
populate the default database from the file pointed to by the
CA_CERTIFICATES environment variable however the mechanism that enabled
this was recently remove from glib-networking.
Adding a more generic g_tls_backend_set_default_database() API allows
application developers to override the default database using their own
certificates as well as allowing equivalent functionality on Android/iOS
(or others) as on the default database handling Linux.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib-networking/issues/35
