0db7395ef9 build: Tell gi-docgen where to find the GIR files
Now that all files are located under top_srcdir/introspection, we need
to ensure that gi-docgen can find them.

d2dbfba208 docs: Install the gi-docgen docs
They are now installed to (e.g.)
`${prefix}/share/doc/glib-2.0/{glib,gmodule,gobject,gio}/index.html`.

We might want to drop one level of nesting out of that, but for the
moment I thought I’d keep it in so we can disambiguate by installed
major version.

031e65808d docs: Port the man pages from DocBook to reStructuredText
So they are consistent with the way we’re building man pages in other
projects, and because some people are allergic to XML.

This changes the build-time dependencies from `xsltproc` to `rst2man`,
and also takes the opportunity to change the `-Dman` Meson option from a
boolean to a feature (so you should use `-Dman-pages={enabled,disabled}`
now, rather than `-Dman={true,false}`).

6a6b36bbc7 gtestutils: Add g_test_trap_subprocess_with_envp() for testing envs
This is a variant of `g_test_trap_subprocess()` which allows the
environment for the child process to be specified. This is quite useful
when you want to test code which reads environment variables, as it’s
not safe to set those after the start of `main()`.

This will be useful within and outwith GLib for testing such code.
