This functionality is used in both PyGObject and GJS, and if not done
correctly can lead to architecture-specific bugs. It seems best to add
API in gobject-introspection for the correct way to do it.

This adds a header to the girepository library, which is then included
either directly or indirectly by the other headers so that all the public
symbols (and the 2 symbols in gitypelib-internal.h used by the tools) are
decorated by a macro, that can later be used to export the symbols and also
to be used to display compile-time warnings for usage of deprecated APIs,
which is like what is now being done in GLib (and GTK+, Clutter, and so
on).
This marks the first step that we begin to stop depending on the .symbols/
.def files to export the symbols.

- require GTK-Doc 1.19
- remove sgml mode
- automatically generate gi.types (needs GTK-Doc 1.19)
- fix https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700025
[WIP] - rearange sections a bit
[WIP] - add gi-building, gi-programming sections
[WIP] - mark missing docs with TODO, which is only marginaly
better than nothing but at least can be grepped :)

The previous ErrorDomain blob was never actually scanned or used, and
it was kind of a lame API conceptually.
To keep some compatibility, rather than removing the enumeration
values, rename them to _INVALID, and don't bump the typelib version.
This should in theory allow a new libgirepository to read an old
typelib.
