This makes `GIBaseInfo` and derived types more consistent with GObject
convention, and thus a bit more comfortable to use.

It’s a separate type, so it would be less confusing if it were in its
own file.
This doesn’t change any API.

Review and update the documentation, making sure it’s complete,
formatted in gi-docgen format, and has all appropriate GIR annotations
and `Since:` lines.

This method doesn’t return a `GType`, so when the code gets ported to
`GTypeInstance` in an upcoming commit, that will become quite confusing.
Rename it to `gi_base_info_get_info_type()` instead.
This introduces no functional changes, but it is an API break.

Rather than a mix of structs being in `GI` and their methods being in
`g_`.
We’ve chosen not to use the `g_` namespace because a number of the
libgirepository class names are quite generic, so we’d end up with
confusing symbols like `GScopeType` and `GArgument`.

The pkg-config file sets the include directory to the level above
`girepository/`, just like with GIO, GObject and GModule.

Add the SPDX license runes to all the files which have an obvious
copyright header already. This is a mechanical edit.
