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There are still some outdated or loaded terms used in GLib, mostly to do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!

This was introduced in commit 7846d6154a: g_subprocess_get_identifier()
will return NULL after the subprocess has exited, and the subprocess in
the `noop` test will exit as soon as it has started spawning. So if the
scheduler scheduled the testprog subprocess quickly, descheduled the
parent test process until the testprog exited, then the return value
from g_subprocess_get_identifier() would be NULL.
Move the g_subprocess_get_identifier() test to one which calls testprog
in `sleep-forever` mode, since that is guaranteed not to exit until
killed (which we do later in the test).

g_assert_*() give more informative failure messages, and aren’t compiled
out when building with G_DISABLE_ASSERT.

There's no /tmp directory on Windows.
Use g_get_tmp_dir(), and adjust the test to work with that.
The test *still* checks the basename of the new CWD, it just
doesn't need to be "tmp" anymore.
envp in spawn() functions is the *whole* environment table
for the child process. Including PATH. Thus, unless PATH is explicitly
put into that table, the process will be spawned without PATH.
Since on Windows binaries are found via PATH instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH
or whatever, almost no program (unless installed in WINDIR, maybe)
can run without a PATH. Certainly not test programs - meson
adds bld subdirs to the PATH to make sure that test programs
use uninstalled glib at runtime.
So make sure that PATH is passed along.
Windows \r\n EOLs strike again. The test already knows about LINEEND,
so make it use LINEEND more (instead of swithcing pipes
to binary mode). This also applies to counting the bytes
read.
There were tests for invalid UTF-8 output when asynchronously
communicating with a subprocess, but nothing for synchronous
communication. Add such a test, and refine the code as a result.

If calling g_subprocess_communicate() on a GSubprocess with no
stdout/stderr pipe, a critical warning would be emitted from
g_memory_output_stream_steal_as_bytes(), as it would be called on a NULL
output stream.
Fix that, improve the relevant GIR annotations, and expand the unit
tests to cover it (and various other combinations of flags).

Previously, this was done at the time of spawning the subprocess, which
meant the g_subprocess_launcher_*_environ() functions could not be used
to modify the parent process’ environment.
Change the code to copy the parent process’ environment when
g_subprocess_launcher_set_environ(NULL) is called. Document the change
and add a unit test.

Add a test for GSubprocess to test setting, unsetting and inheritance of
environment variables. Use communicate() to give it a bit more of a
workout as well.

These prevent some false positives from the static analyser which are
caused by it not inspecting the invariants of
g_subprocess_communicate[_utf8]_finish() (i.e. that stdout and
stdout_str will always be set unless an error was returned).
They’re also good testing anyway.

We need to check for the correct line endings on Windows (\r\n) for the
echo tests and currently need to skip the test_echo_eof test there, as
it depends on the cat utility that is not normally found on Windows, and
using an external installation of cat via MSYS or Cygwin would render the
test program to hang as cat waits for user input.

Various tests were depending on local_error being set by a callback
when it could never have been the case. Simplify async error detection
logic in those cases, and fix leak of GError.

Over many years of writing code interacting with subprocesses, a pattern
that comes up a lot is to run a child and get its output as UTF-8, to
put inside a JSON document or render in a GtkTextBuffer, etc.
It's very important to validate at the boundaries, and not say deep
inside Pango.
We could do this a bit more efficiently if done in a streaming fashion,
but realistically this should be OK for now.
We weren't closing the streams after we were done reading or writing,
which is kind of essential. The easy way to fix this is to just use
g_output_stream_splice() to a GMemoryOutputStream rather than
hand-rolling it. This results in a substantial reduction of code
complexity.
A second serious issue is that we were marking the task as complete when
the process exits, but that's racy - there could still be data to read
from stdout. Fix this by just refcounting outstanding operations.
This code, not surprisingly, looks a lot like the "multi" test.
Next, because processes output binary data, I'd be forced to annotate
the char*/length pairs as (array) (element-type uint8). But rather than
doing that, it's *far* simpler to just use GBytes.
We need a version of this that actually validates as UTF-8, that will be
in the next patch.
There are a number of nice things this class brings:
0) Has a race-free termination API on all platforms (on UNIX, calls to
kill() and waitpid() are coordinated as not to cause problems).
1) Operates in terms of G{Input,Output}Stream, not file descriptors
2) Standard GIO-style async API for wait() with cancellation
3) Makes some simple cases easy, like synchronously spawning a
process with an argument list
4) Makes hard cases possible, like asynchronously running a process
with stdout/stderr merged, output directly to a file path
