First, correct a rather dubious case of accessing a GSettingsSchemaKey
after clearing it. This was technically okay because only the key name
was accessed (and it is not owned by the struct) but it looks very
wrong.
Second, have g_settings_backend_write() sink the passed in GVariant*.
Not all backends get this right, and I'm starting to like the pattern of
virtual function wrappers being responsible for sinking the parameters
that they are documented as consuming.
GValueArray was deprecated in bug 667228 and since we never change the
size of the array, it was kinda dumb to just GValueArray in the first
place.

GKeyFile supports empty files and also supports loading from the string
"", but will fail with a critical if you try:
- explicit length == 0
- data == NULL
length == 0 should always be valid, and data == NULL should be valid in
the case that length == 0, so add some testcases for those and fix the
code up to allow them.

This is needed for thread-safety ... yes, it would have been better to
make get_object() return a full reference and have something like a
peek_object() method return a borrowed reference for C convenience
(only a single vfunc would have been needed). But such an ABI break is
too late now...

And remove a comment about Windows in the fallback implementation that
no longer applies, since there's now a separate Windows-specific
implementation.
It's hardly useful to bloat the resource data with blanks intended only
for human readability, so add a preprocessing option that uses xmllint --noblanks
to strip these.
Bug #667929.
The GValueArray type was added in a time, during the Jurassic era or so,
when GArray did not have a representable GType. The GValueArray API has
various issues as well:
- it doesn't match the other GLib array types;
- it is not reference counted;
- the structure is fully exposed on the stack, so it cannot be
extended to add reference counting;
- it cannot be forcibly resized.
The nice thing is that now we have a GArray type that can replace in
full GValueArray, so we can deprecate the latter, and reduce the
complexity in GLib, application code, and bindings.

Like GPtrArray has a "free function" that can be used to free memory
associated to each pointer in the array, GArray would benefit from
having a "clear function" that can be used to clear the content of
each element of the array when it's removed, or when the entire array
is freed.

Some platforms don't have the source-specific multicast sockopts, and
so would fail to compile. Fix that (and return an error if the caller
tries to use source-specific). Also clarify the docs a bit.

This lets you poke at resources in elf files and
standalone resource bundles. So far, only listing
and extracting resources is supported. The support
for elf files requires libelf.
In non-UTF-8 locales, the translations and nl_langinfo() return values
must be converted to UTF-8 before being returned to the caller.
Likewise, when making a recursive call to expand a format like '%x',
the format string must first be converted to UTF-8.

g_settings_create_action() will create a GAction for the named key,
allowing it to be added to the action group of the application (so that
the setting can be directly manipulated from menus, for example).
