Back in the far-off twentieth century, it was normal on unix
workstations for U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT to be drawn as "‛" and for U+0027
APOSTROPHE to be drawn as "’". This led to the convention of using
them as poor-man's ‛smart quotes’ in ASCII-only text.
However, "'" is now universally drawn as a vertical line, and "`" at a
45-degree angle, making them an `odd couple' when used together.
Unfortunately, there are lots of very old strings in glib, and also
lots of new strings in which people have kept up the old tradition,
perhaps entirely unaware that it used to not look stupid.
Fix this by just using 'dumb quotes' everywhere.

Add the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL annotation to all old functions (that
haven't already been annotated with the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_* macros or a
deprecation macro).
If we discover in the future that we cannot use only one macro on
Windows, it will be an easy sed patch to fix that.

At least GDBus had code that had "_object" as a parameter to one of
its functions, but this clashes with the GObject macro
G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID() which created a local "_object".
Since many of us cargo cult around copies of objects, let's be
defensive here and use local variable names less likely to clash with
application code.

Since we added g_object_notify_by_pspec(), an efficient way to install
and notify properties relies on storing the GParamSpec pointers inside
a static arrays, like we do for signal identifiers.
Instead of multiple calls to g_object_class_install_property(), we
should have a single function to take the static array of GParamSpecs
and iterate it.

g_object_notify_by_pspec() will emit the "notify" signal on the given
pspec, short-circuiting the hash table lookup needed by
g_object_notify(). The suggested and documented way of using
g_object_notify_by_pspec() is similar to the way of emitting signals
with their ID.
Emission tests (with no handler attached to the notify signal) show a
10-15% speedup over using g_object_notify().

* gobject.h:
Mark g_object_get_type function as const, it's
a fundamental type and can safely marked as const,
as opposed to traditionally *_get_type functions.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=7378
* docs/reference/gobject/tmpl/gobject-unused.sgml:
* gobject/gobject.h:
* gobject/gtype.c:
* gobject/gtype.h:
Move some content for gobject-unused.sgml and cleared empty entries.
The remaining 4 ones should be checked by some else. If they are not
needed. The file can be removed.

GObjectClass.constructed() to fix#425324.
