This adds three options to gdbus-codegen so that we may be able to
use a self-defined symbol decorator, such as _GLIB_EXTERN, to decorate
the generated prototypes, to be used possibly to export the symbols, if
needed.
The other two options allows including headers that are required for the
specified symbol decorator to be usable and preprocessor macros that are
required for the symbol decorator to be defined appropriately, also when
needed.
Python tuple comparisons actually do what we want for comparing major
and minor versions, so tidy things up by using that.
This introduces no functional changes.

This makes it consistent with the `GLIB_MIN_REQUIRED` defines which are

Currently the code generated by gdbus-codegen uses
G_DBUS_CALL_FLAGS_NONE in its D-Bus calls, which occur for each method
defined by the input XML, and for proxy_set_property functions. This
means that if the daemon which implements the methods checks for
G_DBUS_FLAGS_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION and only does interactive
authorization if that flag is present, users of the generated code have
no way to cause the daemon to use interactive authorization (e.g. polkit
dialogs).
If we simply changed the generated code to always use
G_DBUS_FLAGS_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION, its users would have no
way to disallow interactive authorization (except for manually calling
the D-Bus method themselves).
So instead, this commit adds a GDBusCallFlags argument to method call
functions. Since this is an API break which will require changes in
projects using gdbus-codegen code, the change is conditional on the
command line argument --glib-min-version having the value 2.64 or
higher.
The impetus for this change is that I'm changing accountsservice to
properly respect G_DBUS_FLAGS_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION, and
libaccountsservice uses generated code for D-Bus method calls. So
these changes will allow libaccountsservice to continue allowing
interactive authorization, and avoid breaking any users of it which
expect that. See
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/accountsservice/accountsservice/merge_requests/46
It might make sense to also let GDBusCallFlags be specified for property
set operations, but that is not needed in the case of accountsservice,
and would require significant work and breaking API in multiple places.
Similarly, the generated code currently hard codes -1 as the timeout
value when calling g_dbus_proxy_call*(). Add a timeout_msec argument so
the user of the generated code can specify the timeout as well.
Also, test this new API. In gio/tests/codegen.py we test that the new
arguments are generated if and only of --glib-min-version is used with a
value greater than or equal to 2.64, and in gio/tests/meson.build we
test that the generated code with the new API can be linked against.
The test_unix_fd_list() test also needed modification to continue
working now that we're using gdbus-test-codegen.c with code generated
with --glib-min-version=2.64 in one test.
Finally, update the docs for gdbus-codegen to explain the effect of
using --glib-min-version 2.64, both from this commit and from
"gdbus-codegen: Emit GUnixFDLists if an arg has type `h` w/
min-version".
This can be used by callers to opt-in to backwards-incompatible changes
to the behaviour or output of `gdbus-codegen` in future. This commit
doesn’t introduce any such changes, though.
Documentation and unit tests included.

If using the --interface-info-{body,header} options to gdbus-codegen,
and the first interface to be outputted has no methods, but does have
properties or signals, an uninitialised variable would be used for the

In other situations, the ‘since’ value for a prior method would have
been incorrectly used for the properties/signals.

Previously, method and signal arguments were sorted by name, which
(assuming you don't happen to give your arguments
lexicographically-ordered names) means the generated signatures were
incorrect when there is more than 1 argument.
While sorting the methods and signals themselves (and properties, and
annotations on all these) is fine, it's easiest to not sort anything.

8916874ee6, which introduced these flags,

If a D-Bus interface was annotated with o.fd.DBus.Deprecated, then the
corresponding GObject property, in the common GInterface implemented
by the generated GDBusObjectProxies and GDBusObjectSkeletons, to
access the generated code for the D-Bus interface was not being marked
with G_PARAM_DEPRECATED, even though the gtk-doc snippet had the
'Deprecated: ' tag.
G_PARAM_DEPRECATED is older than gdbus-codegen, 2.26 and 2.30
respectively, hence it can be used unconditionally.

The existing code was generating code with undefined results that modern compilers warn about:
accounts-generated.c:204:23: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules [-Wstrict-aliasing]
(GDBusArgInfo **) &_accounts_accounts_method_info_list_cached_users_OUT_ARG_pointers,
PEP8 says that:
"Comparisons to singletons like None should always be done with is or
is not, never the equality operators."
glib uses a mix of "== None" and "is None". This patch changes all
cases to the latter.
These generate basic .c and .h files containing the GDBusInterfaceInfo
for a D-Bus introspection XML file, but no other code (no skeletons,
proxies, GObjects, etc.).
This is useful for projects who want to describe their D-Bus interfaces
using introspection XML, but who wish to implement the interfaces
manually (for various reasons, typically because the skeletons generated
by gdbus-codegen are too simplistic and limiting). Previously, these
projects would have had to write the GDBusInterfaceInfo manually, which
is painstaking and error-prone.
The new --interface-info-[body|header] options are very similar to
--[body|header], but mutually exclusive with them.

This adds a new --c-generate-autocleanup option to gdbus-codegen
which can be used to instruct gdbus-codegen about what autocleanup
definitions to emit.
Doing this unconditionally was found to interfere with existing
code out in the wild.
The new option takes an argument that can be
none, objects or all; to indicate whether to generate no
autocleanup functions, only do it for object types, or do it
for interface types as well. The default is 'objects', which
matches the unconditional behavior of gdbus-codegen on the 2.48
branch.

Some GNOME projects unconditionally work around the generated code's
lack of g_autoptr support by defining the autoptr cleanup function
themselves, which is not forward-compatible; as a result, commit
cbbcaa4 broke them. Do not define the cleanup function unless the
including app "opts in" to newer APIs via GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED.
Projects requiring compatibility with GLib < 2.49 can get a
forward-compatible g_autoptr for a generated GInterface type found in
a library, for example ExampleAnimal in the GIO tests, by declaring
and using a typedef with a distinct name outside the library's
namespace:
typedef AutoExampleAnimal ExampleAnimal;
G_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_CLEANUP_FUNC (AutoExampleAnimal, g_object_unref)
...
g_autoptr (AutoExampleAnimal) animal = NULL;
/* returns ExampleAnimal * */
animal = example_animal_proxy_new_sync (...);
/* takes ExampleAnimal * first argument */
example_animal_call_poke_sync (animal, ...);
