If `statx()` is supported, query it for the file creation time and use
that if returned.
Incorporating some minor code rearrangement by Philip Withnall
<withnall@endlessm.com>.
Fixes: #1970
This was mostly machine generated with the following command:
```
codespell \
--builtin clear,rare,usage \
--skip './po/*' --skip './.git/*' --skip './NEWS*' \
--write-changes .
```
using the latest git version of `codespell` as per [these
instructions](https://github.com/codespell-project/codespell#user-content-updating).
Then I manually checked each change using `git add -p`, made a few
manual fixups and dropped a load of incorrect changes.
There are still some outdated or loaded terms used in GLib, mostly to do
with git branch terminology. They will need to be changed later as part
of a wider migration of git terminology.
If I’ve missed anything, please file an issue!

They use the deprecated GTimeVal type, which is not year 2038 safe, so
have to be deprecated.

These are alternatives to g_file_info_{get,set}_modification_time(),
which will soon be deprecated due to using the deprecated GTimeVal
type, which is not year 2038 safe.
The new APIs take a GDateTime instead.

On Windows NTFS symlinks are implemented as reparse points,
which are special kinds of files *or directories*. A directory
symlink should link to a directory. A file symlink should link
to a file. Mismatching (such as a file symlink pointing to a
directory) produces symlinks that simply do not function.
Therefore GFileType file vs directory vs symlink distinction is
too simplistic to correctly represent a NTFS filesystem object type.
Since we can't turn back time and choose a better way of representing
file types, make GFileType reflect the file vs directory type on
Windows, meaning that all FS objects are either files or
directories (or shortcuts, which are also files), but never symlinks.
A test for symlinkiness will have to be made via GFileInfo - it
tracks symlinkiness separately from file/directory/whatever.
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DOS_IS_MOUNTPOINT allows mountpoints
(NTFS reparse points with IO_REPARSE_TAG_MOUNT_POINT tag) to
be told apart from symlinks (NTFS reparse points with
IO_REPARSE_TAG_SYMLINK tag), even though both are reported
by glib as "symlinks".
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DOS_REPARSE_POINT_TAG allows the exact
reparse tag value to be obtained by the user. This way
even more exotic reparse points can be identified and
handled by the user (glib itself currently has no code
to work with any reparse points that are not symlinks
or mountpoints).
The previously implementation considered a file to be a mountpoint if
its parent is on a different device. / is its own parent, so by this
definition it is not a mountpoint.
But / is (generally) listed in fstab, and fstab(5) defines the
directories it contains to be mountpoints. This attribute should follow
that definition (and reasonable expectation): the root directory is a
mountpoint.
So, add a special-case for the case where the file's parent has the same
st_dev and st_ino as the file, which is true only at the root.
Test this attribute at / (only on POSIX), /proc (but only on Linux), and
at many files and directories created by the test suite (which cannot be
mountpoints).
Add filesystem attribute to propagate time, when the metadata for the file
in "recent:///" was last changed. This attribute is needed for sorting
recent backend files in client applications.

Add filesystem attribute to detect remote filesystems in order to
replace hardcoded filesystem types in GtkFileSystem. Set this attribute
also for GLocalFile appropriately.
Bump version to 2.49.3, so that early adopters of new API have a version
number to target.
This is meant for opaque, non-POSIX-like backends to indicate that the
URI is not persistent. Applications should look at
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_SYMLINK_TARGET for the persistent URI.
Examples of such backends could be a portal for letting sandboxed
applications access the file-system, or a database-backed storage like
Google Drive.
In these cases, the user visible file and folder names are different
from the real identifiers, used by the backend. So, a request to
create google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/New\ File, would actually
lead to google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/bar on the server even though
the user visible name is still "New File". Since the server-defined URI
is persistent and sanity-checked by the backend, it is recommended that
applications switch to it as soon as possible. Backends will try to
keep a mapping from "fake" to "real" URIs, but those are only on a
best effort basis. They might not be persistent or have the same
guarantees as the "real" URIs.

This indicates whether the thumbnail (given by G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_THUMBNAIL_PATH)
is valid — i.e. to represent the file in its current state. If
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_THUMBNAIL_IS_VALID is FALSE (for a normal _or_ failed
thumbnail) it means the file has changed since the thumbnail was generated, and
the thumbnail is out of date.
Part of checking thumbnail validity (by the spec) involves parsing
headers out of the thumbnail .png so we include some (small) code to do
that in a separate file. We will likely want to copy this code to gvfs
to do the same for GVfsFile.
Heavily based on a patch from Philip Withnall <philip.withnall@collabora.co.uk>
who suggested the feature and designed the API.

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.

This is implemented by with statfs_buffer.f_bavail (free blocks
for unprivileged users) as a default way to retrieve real free space.
Based on a patch by Marcus Carlson, bug 625751.
For details, see bug 587482. The new api:
- Provide new _with_operation() variants of all unmount and eject methods
- Add GMountOperation::show-processes signal
- this can be used to show processes blocking an unmount operation
- Deprecate all unmount and eject methods
- Add g_drive_can_start_degraded() method
- this is to avoid auto-starting degraded drives
- Make g_drive_stop() resp. g_file_stop_mountable() take a GMountOperation
- these ops were recently added and not yet public API so it's fine
to change how they work
- Provide a way to poll mountable files, e.g. g_file_poll_mountable()
- Add some missing file attributes for mountable files
- G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_UNIX_DEVICE_FILE
- needed for the GDU Nautilus extensions to format a volume
- G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_CAN_START_DEGRADED:
- mimics g_drive_can_start_degraded()
- G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_CAN_POLL:
- mimics g_drive_can_poll_for_media()
- G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_MOUNTABLE_IS_MEDIA_CHECK_AUTOMATIC
- mimics g_drive_is_media_check_automatic()
Add API for starting/stopping drives. This new API will enable
GVolumeMonitor and GVfs implementations to add support for the
following features
1. Powering down external hard disk enclosures / drives
2. Starting/stopping multi-disk devices (such as RAID/btrfs/ZFS)
3. Connecting/disconnecting iSCSI devices
4. Reacting to the user pressing e.g. the "remove drive" button on
a IBM/Lenovo Ultrabay: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Ultrabay
See the bug for the corresponding GVfs and Nautilus changes.

* Makefile.am. build with G_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES to prevent

which use G_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES.
* makegioalias.pl: make the alias file include "glib.h" instead of

alias file after above script change.
* gfileinfo.h: remove inlcusion of <glib/gfileutils.h>.
