I made the kqueue failure 100% reliable with `samu -j1` on FreeBSD,
and therefore confirmed this fixes that problem. Issue #2929 is
an identical failure on win32, so I assume this fixes that, too,
but I haven't confirmed.
Fixes: #2929
Various gio modules include gmodule.h that requires the
gmodule-visibility.h to be already built.
To make this easier, just provide a dependency and use it where we are
building modules that do not depend on libgio_dep (that already includes
that).

Building GLib 2.75.0 on Linux adds various inotify-related internal
symbols to the ABI, which doesn't seem to have been intentional.
I went through the other libraries in the build system, and it looks
as though the BSD kqueue backend would have the same problem.
GNU symbol visibility probably doesn't do anything for gio/win32, but
for completeness I've set that to use hidden symbols too, on the basis
that it'll be easier to get this right if we're consistent.

It must only be defined when building libgio. This requires some
workaround to allow include of some gio private headers.
When GIO_COMPILATION is not defined we cannot include individual gio
headers. We workaround that by defining __GIO_GIO_H_INSIDE__ in some
places. Also gdbusprivate.h is not an installed header, so it's fine to
include it directly.
gioenumtypes needs to be generated:

- Stop using a custom thread for listening to kqueue(2) events. Instead
call kevent(2) in non blocking mode in a monitor callback. Under the
hood poll(2) is used to figure out if new events are available.
- Do not use a socketpair with a custom protocol requiring 2 supplementary
context switches per event to commicate between multiple threads. Calling
kevent(2), in non blocking mode, to add/remove events is fine from any
context.
- Add kqueue(2) events without the EV_ONESHOT flag. This removes a race
where some notifications were lost because events had to be re-added for
every new notification.
- Get rid of the global hash table and its associated lock and races. Use
the 'cookie' argument of kevent(2) to pass the associated descriptor when
registering an event.
- Fix _kh_file_appeared_cb() by properly passing a monitor instead of a
source to g_file_monitor_emit_event().
- Properly refcount sources.
- Remove a lot of abstraction making it harder to fix the remaining issues.

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.
