0e22d19a11 Bug-790839 GApplication command line --help enhancements
In order to enrich information displayed by GApplication command line
handling when --help is invoked, 3 new methods are proposed:
. g_application_set_option_context_parameter_string
. g_application_set_option_context_summary
. g_application_set_option_context_description
Those methods interact with the GApplication's internal GOptionContext
which is created for command line parsing in g_application_parse_command_line.
(please refer to the GOptionContext class for more information about option
context, parameter string, summary and description.)

To illustrate the 3 methods, an example is provided:
. gapplication-example-cmdline4.c

156d32cb80 gobject: new g_set_weak_pointer() & g_clear_weak_pointer() helpers
Weak-pointers are currently lacking g_set_object() & g_clear_object()
helpers equivalent. New functions (and macros, both are provided) are
convenient in many case, especially for the property's notify-on-set
pattern:

  if (g_set_weak_pointer (...))
    g_object_notify (...)

Inspired by Christian Hergert's original implementation for
gnome-builder.

12fa92dcfa docs: Split GSocketConnectable/GProxyAddressEnumerator documentation
Putting them in the same section causes gtk-doc to mix their properties
together in a single listing, which is confusing.

Since having them in a single section doesn’t really add anything, split
them out to one class per section.

2227918dfd file: add g_file_load_bytes()
This adds g_file_load_bytes() to make it more convenient to
load the contents of a GFile as GBytes.

It includes a special casing for gresources to increase the
chances that the GBytes directly references the embedded data
instead of copying to the heap.

5ebd8f6e88 gmain: add g_clear_handle_id API
It's a very common pattern to see code that looks like this in
dispose() or finalize() implementations:

if (priv->source_id > 0)
  {
    g_source_remove (priv->source_id);
    priv->source_id = 0;
  }

This API allows to accomplish the same goal with a single line:

g_clear_handle_id (&priv->source_id, (GClearHandleFunc) g_source_remove);

Thanks to Emmanuele Bassi <ebassi@gnome.org> for making the patch
generic.

491f835c17 GDateTime: Support parsing ISO 8601 strings
This supports a subset of ISO 8601 since that is a commonly used standard for
storing date and time information. We support only ISO 8601 strings that contain
full date and time information as this would otherwise not map to GDateTime.
This subset includes all of RFC 3339 which is commonly used on the Internet and
the week and ordinal day formats as these are supported in the GDateTime APIs.

(Minor modification by Philip Withnall to change API versions from 2.54
to 2.56.)

93f16a45ab Rewrite glib-genmarshal in Python
We're in the process or rewriting other tools in Python to reduce the
number of dependencies of GLib.

Additionally, making glib-genmarshal a Python script reduces the
complexity when cross-compiling, as we don't need a native build to

4fe89b0437 gstrfuncs: Add replacement for string-to-number functions
Very often when we want to convert a string to number, we assume that
the string contains only a number. We have g_ascii_strto* family of
functions to do the conversion but they are awkward to use - one has
to check if errno is zero, end_ptr is not NULL and *end_ptr points to
the terminating nul and then do the bounds checking. Many projects
need this kind of functionality, so it gets reimplemented all the
time.

This commit adds some replacement functions that convert a string to a
signed or unsigned number that also follows the usual way of error
reporting - returning FALSE on failure and filling an error output
parameter.

7890573f6e gdbus-tool: Add a command to wait for a well-known name on the bus
This is effectively the mc-wait-for-name tool from
telepathy-mission-control; moving it in to gdbus-tool will make it more
widely useful without making people depend on telepathy-mission-control
for no other reason. The code here is reimplemented from scratch to use
GDBus.

It blocks until the specified well-known name is owned by some process
on the bus (which can be the session, system, or any other bus). By
passing --activate, the same (or a different) name can be auto-started
on the bus first.

A timeout can be specified to ensure the process doesn’t block forever.
