Commit e53caad4 makes _g_log_abort() noreturn by calling abort()
unconditionally.
However, it is useful to be able to skip some log_abort() with a
debugger, to reach a point of interest. Revert back to previous
behaviour. Make g_assert_warning() noreturn by calling abort().

g_test_init() was calling _g_messages_set_exit_on_fatal() from
subprocesses, to make fatal log messages call _exit() rather than
abort(), but the function name is sort of confusing, and we don't
really need it anyway, since g_log() can just call g_test_subprocess()
instead and decide for itself.
Likewise, update g_assertion_message() to do the check itself, rather
than calling into gmessages to do it, and fix
g_assertion_message_expr() to also check whether it should exit or
abort. (Previously it always called abort(), although this didn't
actually matter since that was dead code until
test_nonfatal_assertions was added.)

In Windows development environments that have it, <unistd.h> is mostly
just a wrapper around several other native headers (in particular,
<io.h>, which contains read(), close(), etc, and <process.h>, which
contains getpid()). But given that some Windows dev environments don't
have <unistd.h>, everything that uses those functions on Windows
already needed to include the correct Windows header as well, and so
there is never any point to including <unistd.h> on Windows.
Also, remove some <unistd.h> includes (and a few others) that were
unnecessary even on unix.

Debug messages are meant to give insight into how a process is
proceeding, and are unpredictable in nature. They also often have
line numbers in them.
This patch ignores debug messages in g_test_assert_expected_messages().

Allow passing a NULL domain to g_test_expect_message(), and more
importantly, don't crash if a message with a NULL domain gets logged
while there is an expected message.
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.

Since we expect them to crash, let's not spam the system
core dump collection (systemd, abrt). At the moment
systemd is not very robust against programs crashing
in loops.
Instead of aborting, we exit(1).

g_test_trap_fork() doesn't work on Windows and is potentially flaky on
unix anyway given the fork-but-don't-exec. Replace it with
g_test_trap_subprocess(), which re-spawns the same program with
arguments telling it to run a specific (otherwise-ignored) test case.
Make the existing g_test_trap_fork() unit tests be unix-only (they
never passed on Windows anyway), and add a parallel set of
g_test_trap_subprocess() tests.
Also fix the logic of gtestutils's "-p" argument (which is used by the
subprocess tests); previously if you had tests "/foo/bar" and
"/foo/bar/baz", and ran the test program with "-p /foo/bar/baz", it
would run "/foo/bar" too. Fix that and add tests.

When running a test program (ie, if g_test_init() has been called),
don't pop up a dialog box when a fatal error occurs. Just print the
message to stderr and exit.

We check if the log level is in the "prefixed" list by checking it
against the g_log_msg_prefix bitfield.
Unfortunately we were failing to mask by G_LOG_LEVEL_MASK first, so if
the FATAL bit was set (for example) then it would never match. This was
the case for g_error().

Make sure that it calls absolutely nothing that may ever recurse back
into GLib again:
- g_ascii_strcasecmp() is unsafe because it has g_return_if_fail() at
the top. As far as I know, the only ASCII character letter that
would get special treatment here is "i" and that appears in neither
"help" nor "all".
- g_getenv() is very complicated on Windows, so use a simple version
that is sufficient for our purposes.
Now that it's completely safe, we can just call it from g_logv() in the
usual way without all of the hacks.

All locks are now zero-initialised, so we can drop the G_*_INIT macros
for them.
Adjust various users around GLib accordingly and change the docs.

Take out the half-private g_private_init() stuff and replace it with a
G_PRIVATE_INIT macro that allows specifying a GDestroyNotify.
Expose the GPrivate structure in a public header.
Add a g_private_replace() to (sort of) match the functionality of
g_static_mutex_set().
Improve the documentation.
Deprecate g_private_new().
We remove the macros while at the same time switching all libglib users
from g_private_new() to g_private_init(). We deal with the strange
expectations of the libglib code that g_private_* should work before the
GPrivate has been initialised with a temporary shim.
On Linux with gdb, it's much more convenient to debug programs using
G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings if we send SIGTRAP instead of abort() by
default. The default handler for both is to terminate the process.
In particular this makes it more easily possible to debug a warning
that's not the first in a program; you can skip past it and
go to the warning you care about.
The "aborting..." message is removed since it's no longer accurate,
and anyways was never very useful; crashes should show up in ABRT/apport
type crash catching systems.
