It’s not enough to close a connection by calling g_input_stream_close()
and g_output_stream_close() on its two substreams: to close the
underlying socket, one must use g_io_stream_close(). Document that.

If we used a non-positive pid, we'd call waitpid(that_pid, ...)
which is exactly the situation this function can't deal with.
On Windows, GPid is a HANDLE (pointer), so I don't think the same thing
applies.

In particular, it is not incorrect to g_return_if_fail (..., FALSE)
in a function returning a "success" gboolean and a GError: "failure to
meet the preconditions is an error" takes precedence over the
GError documentation's guarantee that the error will be set on failure.

Since all element markup is now gone from the doc comments,
we can turn off the gtk-doc sgml mode, which means that from
now on, docbook markup is no longer allowed in doc comments.
To make this possible, we have to replace all remaining
entities in doc comments by their replacement text, & -> &
and so on.
Add support for parsing command line options with GApplication.
You can add GOptionGroup and GOptionEntry using two new APIs:
g_application_add_option_group() and
g_application_add_main_option_entries().
Also add a "handle-local-options" signal that allows handling of
commandline arguments in the local process without having to override
local_command_line.
As a special feature, you can have a %NULL @arg_data in a GOptionEntry
which will cause the argument to be stored in a GVariantDict. This
dictionary is available for inspection and modification by the
"handle-local-options" signal and can be forwarded to the primary
instance in cases of command line invocation (where it can be fetched
using g_application_command_line_get_options()).

We are a bit too aggressive about freeing memory in strv mode. Only
free it in the case that we actually set the pointer to NULL.
Uncovered by the GApplication tests.
Slightly expand on the documentation about casting varargs when
constructing GVariants, and link to it from all the functions where it’s
a necessary consideration.
Add an example of passing flags to a ‘t’ type variable (guint64).
Assuming the flags enum does not have many members, the flag variable
will be 32 bits wide, and needs an explicit cast to be passed into
g_variant_new() as a 64-bit value.
