a1c78d63ef meson: Set install_tag on all tools
Those tools are not needed at runtime for typical applications,
distributions typically package them separately.

This makes `meson install --tag runtime` skip installation of those
tools. Omitting `--tag` argument will still install them, as well as
with `--tag bin,bin-devel`.

See https://mesonbuild.com/Installing.html#installation-tags.

66e4ba806a Add reStructuredText generator to gdbus-codegen
The gdbus-codegen tool generates documentation from the XML introspection
description of a D-Bus interface. Currently, only DocBook is supported at
the moment, but not every modern documentation generator can handle that
format. The reStructuredText format is a bit more well-supported,
especially in documentation generators for non-C languages.

Unlike DocBook, we get to make our own structure and conventions for how
we structure the documentation when using reStructuredText.

65be80c3ed build: Rework path construction to reliably add prefix
There were a couple of custom paths which could end up being relative,
rather than absolute, due to not properly prefixing them with
`get_option('prefix')`.

The use of `join_paths()` here correctly drops all path components
before the final absolute path in the list of arguments. So if someone
configures GLib with an absolute path for `gio_module_dir`, that will be
used unprefixed; but if someone configures with a relative path, it will
be prefixed by `get_option('prefix)`.

9734e4854e gdbus-codegen: Add --glib-max-allowed argument
This complements the `--glib-min-required` argument, just like the
`GLIB_MIN_REQUIRED` and `GLIB_MAX_ALLOWED` preprocessor defines which
control access to APIs in C.

Currently, it doesn’t affect code generation at all. When we next change
code generation, we will need to gate any new API usage on this
argument.

00d7568e4f build: Remove unsupported install directives
We're using the `install` argument for configure_file() all over the
place.

The support for an `install` argument for configure_file() was added in
Meson 0.50, but we haven't bumped the minimum version of Meson we
require, yet; which means we're getting compatibility warnings when
using recent versions of Meson, and undefined behaviour when using older
versions.

The configure_file() object defaults to `install: false`, unless an
install directory is used. This means that all instances of an `install`
argument with an explicit `true` or `false` value can be removed,
whereas all instances of `install` with a value determined from a
configuration option must be turned into an explicit conditional.

631c3534b7 meson: use the new 'python' module instead of the 'python3' one. Closes #1455
The new python module, added with 0.46, works with Python 2 and 3 and
allows to pass a path for the interpreter to use, if the need arises.

Previously the meson build set PYTHON, used in the shebang line of
the scripts installed by glib, to the full path of the interpreter.
The new meson module doesn't expose that atm, but we should set it to
a executable name anyway, and not a full path.

057f393bbb meson: Provide our Python tools for builds
Several of our tools are installed and are used by other projects to
generate code. However, there is no 'install' when projects use glib
as a subproject.

We need some way for glib to 'provide' these tools so that when some
project uses glib as a subproject, find_program('glib-mkenums') will
transparently return the glib-mkenums we just built.

Starting from Meson 0.46, this can be done with the
`meson.override_find_program()` function.

As a bonus, the Meson GNOME module will also use these
'overriden'/'provided' programs instead of looking for them in PATH.

b444ae0de2 meson: Improve gdbus-codegen custom target dependencies
Ensure that the custom targets that use gdbus-codegen get rebuilt when
any of the gdbus-codegen files are changed.

30b25a6fd9 meson: Fix permissions of installed scripts
configure_file preserves the attributes, so the templates need to be
executable for the (installed) outputs to be executable.

b9f2ea4235 gdbus-codegen: Don't assume bindir and datadir share prefix
This assumption breaks when, for instance:

* Called as /bin/gdbus-codegen
* Installed on Windows in a directory that is not `bin/`

For such cases, we cannot make any assumptions about the directory
structure, and must hard-code the datadir.

fe2a9887a8 meson: Improve MSVC and MinGW support and fix dependencies everywhere
Disable gio tests on Windows, fix .gitignore to not ignore
config.h.meson, and add more things to it.

Rename the library file naming and versioning to match what Autotools
outputs, e.g., libglib-2.0.so.0.5000.2 on Linux, libglib-2.0-0.dll  and
glib-2.0-0.dll on Windows with MSVC.

Several more tiny fixes, more executables built and installed, install
pkg-config and m4 files, fix building of gobject tests.

Changes to gdbus-codegen to support out-of-tree builds without
environment variables set (which you can't in Meson). We now add the
build directory to the Python module search path.
