When running under CI, each iteration takes so long that the total test
time is around 200s. If the CI runner is highly loaded, this can tip it
over the timeout of 360s.
Reduce the iteration counts unless running the test thoroughly.

Currently the test waits for 1s before deciding that a refcount has been
leaked. But slow test machines might take longer than that between
scheduling different threads to sort out the refcount, so increase the
timeout.

Previously, if the `--address` option was passed to `gdbus-tool`, it
would treat the connection as peer to peer. However, almost all the
commands `gdbus-tool` supports require a message bus (introspection,
calling a method with a destination, etc.). Only the `signal` command
would ever work on a peer-to-peer connection (if no `--dest` was
specified).
So change the `--address` option to generally create message bus
connections.

Move the separate function inline using g_once_init_{enter,leave}(),
rather than g_once().
This marginally improves performance, taking 0.39s to create 10000000
UTC timezones, rather than 0.43s previously. (Who cares?)
Follow-up to !1105.

It’s quite surprising that this wasn’t documented already. Hash tables
are unordered, and any recognisable iteration ordering is not guaranteed
and might change in future releases.

Instead only do a g_critical(). This is something that has to be fixed
one way or another, but a g_critical() is less disruptive and makes sure
that code that worked in previous GLib versions still works as bad as
before.

bindfs is part of the setup process, so if it fails (as can happen if
the `fuse` kernel module has not been loaded — not much we can do about
that) then skip the test.

Add a note to the documentation of
`g_dbus_connection_signal_unsubscribe()`, `g_bus_unwatch_name()` and
`g_bus_unown_name()` warning about the need to continue iterating the
caller’s thread-default `GMainContext` until the
unsubscribe/unwatch/unown operation is complete.
See the previous few commits and #1515 for an idea of the insidious bugs
that can be caused by not iterating the `GMainContext` until
everything’s synchronised.

When testing that signals are delivered to the correct thread, and are
delivered the correct number of times, call `EmitSignal()` on the
`gdbus-testserver` to trigger a signal emission, and listen for that.
Previously, the code listened for `NameOwnerChanged` and connected to
the bus again to trigger emission of that. The problem with that is that
other things happening on the bus (for example, an old
`gdbus-testserver` instance disconnecting) can cause `NameOwnerChanged`
signal emissions. Sometimes, the `gdbus-threading` test was failing the
`signal_count == 1` assertion due to receiving more than one
`NameOwnerChanged` emission.

This is equivalent, but makes the loop exit conditions a little clearer,
since they’re actually in a `while` statement, rather than being a
`g_main_loop_quit()` call in a callback somewhere else in the file.

As with the previous commit, don’t stop iterating the `context` in
`test_delivery_in_thread_func()` until the unsubscription from a signal
is complete, and hence there’s a guarantee that no callbacks are pending
in the `thread_context`.
This commit uses the `GDestroyNotify` for
`g_dbus_connection_signal_subscribe()` as a synchronisation message from
the D-Bus worker thread to the `test_delivery_in_thread_func()` thread
to notify of signal unsubscription.

Previously, the code in `ensure_gdbus_testserver_up()` created a proxy
object and watched its `name-owner` to see when the
`com.example.TestService` name appeared.
This ended up subscribing to three signals (one of them for name
ownership, and two unused for properties of the proxy), and was racy. In
particular, the `name-owner` property could be set before all D-Bus
messages had been processed — it could have been derived from getting
the owner of the name, for example.
This left unprocessed messages hanging around in the `context`, but that
context was never iterated again, which essentially leaked the
references held by those messages. That included a reference to the
`GDBusConnection`.
The first part of the fix is to simplify the code to use
`g_bus_watch_name_on_connection()`, so there’s only one signal
subscription to worry about.
The second part of the fix is to use the `GDestroyNotify` callback for
the watch data to be notified of when all D-Bus traffic has been
processed and the signal unsubscription is complete. At this point, it’s
guaranteed that there are no idle callbacks pending in the
`GMainContext`, since the `GDestroyNotify` callback is the last one
invoked on the `GMainContext`.
Essentially, this commit uses the `GDestroyNotify` callback as a
synchronisation message between the D-Bus worker thread and the thread
calling `ensure_gdbus_testserver_up()`.

Iterate the given `context` while waiting, rather than sleeping. This
ensures that if the errant `GDBusConnection` ref is held by some pending
callback in the given `context`, it will actually be released.
Typically `context` is going to be the global default main context.

The fix for bgo#651133 (commit 7e0f890e38) introduced a kind of weak
ref, which had to be thread-safe due to the fact that `GDBusProxy`
operates in one thread but can emit signals in another.
Since that commit, `GWeakRef` was added, which does the same thing. Drop
the custom code in favour of it; this should be functionally equivalent,
but using an RW lock rather than a basic mutex, which should reduce
contention.

These checks used to be a precondition on test_threaded_singleton(); but
the earlier tests could leave the refcount of the shared connection in a
bad state, and this wouldn’t be caught until later.
Factor out the check, increase the iteration count to 1000 (so the check
blocks for up to 1s rather than 100ms), and call it in more places.

Newer versions of xdg-desktop-portal need a newer PipeWire, so use the
latest release that doesn't contain this change to avoid having
something else to build.
CI scripts are done using a shell with 'set -e' enabled, but using
'&&' means that the line won't "fail". Run the different commands
sequentially instead.
