unix:dir= addresses are exactly the same as unix:tmpdir= addresses,
already supported by GDBus, except they forbid use of abstract sockets.
This is convenient for situations where abstract sockets are
impermissible, such as when a D-Bus client inside a network namespace
needs to connect to a server running in a different network namespace.
An abstract socket cannot be shared between two processes in different
network namespaces.
Applications could use unix:path= addresses instead, so this is only a
convenience, but there's no good reason not to support unix:dir=.
Currently it is not supported simply because unix:dir= is a relatively
recent addition to the D-Bus spec.
Just skip the test if the unix transport isn’t supported. This means we
get better compilation coverage, and more explicit TAP output saying
that the test is being skipped on unsupported platforms.

Previously, calling:
g_dbus_is_supported_address ("some-imaginary-transport:", NULL)
correctly returned FALSE; but calling:
g_dbus_is_supported_address ("some-imaginary-transport:", &error)
crashed with:
GLib-GIO:ERROR:../gio/gdbusaddress.c:434:g_dbus_is_supported_address:
assertion failed: (ret || (!ret && (error == NULL || *error != NULL)))
This was because, if the address component did not start with a known
transport, no error was set. Fix this, reusing an error string used by
the corresponding else branch in g_dbus_address_connect(), and adjust
the test to pass both NULL and non-NULL GError **s to this function in
every test case. This case:
g_assert (!g_dbus_is_supported_address ("some-imaginary-transport:foo=bar;unix:path=/this/is/valid", NULL));
would have caught this bug with a non-NULL GError **.
This is a GLib reimplementation of dbus_address_escape_value().
It's useful if you want to construct a D-Bus address from pieces:
for instance, if you have a listening Unix socket whose path is known,
and you want to connect a D-Bus peer to it.

Very many testcases, some GLib tools (resource compiler, etc) and
GApplication were calling g_type_init().
Remove those uses, as they are no longer required.

Things compile and the test-suite passes. Still need to hook up
gio.symbols and docs. There are still a bunch of TODOs left in the
sources that needs to be addressed.
