4631cd892d gobject: Change assertions to read values via atomics
I'm trying to use `-fsanitize=thread` for OSTree, and some of
these issues seem to go into GLib.  Also, the sanitizers work better if
the userspace libraries are built with them too.

This fix is similar to
b6814bb37c

Mixing atomic and non-atomic reads trips TSAN, so let's change the
assertions to operate on the local values returned from atomic
read/writes.

Without this change I couldn't even *build* GLib with TSAN, since we
use gresources during compilation, which uses GSubprocess, which hits
this code.

3fae39a5d7 gobject: add type propagation to gobject ref API
Currently, g_object_ref() and g_object_ref_sink() return a
gpointer which can mask issues when assigning to fields or
returning from a function.

To help catch these type of programming errors, we can propagate
the type of the parameter through the function call on GCC
using the typeof() C language extension.

This will cause offending code to have a warning, but will
continue to be source and binary compatible.

This is only enabled when GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED is 2.56 or greater.

a83ccc535f gobject: remove duplicate GType sanity check
This is going to be checked again by g_object_new_with_properties()
and g_object_new_valist() anyway, so might just as well leave it
to those functions to do the check and only do it once. It doesn't
matter which function emits the critical warning in the end either,
as one has to look at a stack trace to find out what code triggered
it in any case.

18a33f72db introspection: use (nullable) or (optional) instead of (allow-none)
If we have an input parameter (or return value) we need to use (nullable).
However, if it is an (inout) or (out) parameter, (optional) is sufficient.

It looks like (nullable) could be used for everything according to the
Annotation documentation, but (optional) is more specific.

5ff8579527 Fix debug builds under MSVC
The C spec leaves conditional evaluation inside a macro expansion as
undefined behaviour. This means we cannot use constructs like:

  GOBJECT_IF_DEBUG(OBJECTS, {
    ...
  #ifdef BLAH
    ...
  #endif
    ...});

Because compilers are entirely justified to ignore the conditional, or,
like in the case of MSVC, error out.

42dad59cc1 gobject: add GOBJECT_IF_DEBUG macro for debugging gobjects and gsignals.
historically, DEBUG_CODE(gtype.c) and IF_DEBUG(gobject.c, gsignal.c)
macros are used to support debugging messages about object bookkeeping
and signal emission.
DEBUG_CODE has never been used in gtype.c. IF_DEBUG, when used, must be
accompanied by an extra #ifdef G_ENABLE_DEBUG. this is cumbersome.

this patch add a new macro GOBJECT_IF_DEBUG based on DEBUG_CODE as
a replacement for both DEBUG_CODE and IF_DEBUG.

25a7c817d3 glib: Add missing (nullable) and (optional) annotations
Add various (nullable) and (optional) annotations which were missing
from a variety of functions. Also port a couple of existing (allow-none)
annotations in the same files to use (nullable) and (optional) as
appropriate instead.

Secondly, add various (not nullable) annotations as needed by the new
default in gobject-introspection of marking gpointers as (nullable). See
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=729660.

This includes adding some stub documentation comments for the
assertion macro error functions, which weren’t previously documented.
The new comments are purely to allow for annotations, and hence are
marked as (skip) to prevent the symbols appearing in the GIR file.
