Prevent the situation where errno is set by function A, then function B
is called (which is typically _(), but could be anything else) and it
overwrites errno, then errno is checked by the caller.
errno is a horrific API, and we need to be careful to save its value as
soon as a function call (which might set it) returns. i.e. Follow the
pattern:
int errsv, ret;
ret = some_call_which_might_set_errno ();
errsv = errno;
if (ret < 0)
puts (strerror (errsv));
This patch implements that pattern throughout GLib. There might be a few
places in the test code which still use errno directly. They should be
ported as necessary. It doesn’t modify all the call sites like this:
if (some_call_which_might_set_errno () && errno == ESOMETHING)
since the refactoring involved is probably more harmful than beneficial
there. It does, however, refactor other call sites regardless of whether
they were originally buggy.

This patch contains the following changes:
- Print all errors with "gio: " prefix
- Print file uri in error for each tool allowing multiple locations
- Mark all error messages translatable
- Do not leak strings used in error messages
- Always start error messages with capital letter
- Unify some error messages across various tools
- Fix addional/missing new line characters

The recently-added GIO tools is intended to be built on all platforms, so
adjust the code a bit to enable this:
-Use gssize instead of ssize_t, as ssize_t is not supported by all
compilers.
-Include io.h on Windows, and define STDIN_FILENO and STDOUT_FILENO if
necessary on Windows.

This command collects the various commandline utilities that
are currently shipped in gvfs, and unifies them under a single,
command-style binary.
The tools just use GIO APIs, so it makes sense for them to live here.
