96a053e025 Add g_settings_schema_key_get_summary/description
Add an API to read the summary and description from the .xml schema
files.

This will be used by dconf-editor and gnome-tweak-tool.

This API is a bit heavy -- it parses the XML and builds a table.  It
also loads gettext domains for translation.  It only does these things
if it is used, however, so it will not impact normal applications.

We store the summary/description in a pair of hash tables on the schema
source (which we have a backref to as of a few commits ago).  We can't
use a global table because people might want to request summary and
description from non-default sources.  We don't want to use per-schema
tables because we'd have to reparse the directory every time (since we
cannot guess which file a schema may have been in).

84fa07aeb1 Make GSettingsSchemaKey public
Take this private API and make it public along with a boxed type and
ref/unref functions.

Future commits will add accessors with new functionality and some that
allow us to deprecate functions on GSettings itself (such as
g_settings_get_range).

fe7069749f file-info: Add a G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_THUMBNAIL_IS_VALID attribute
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the thumbnail is out of date.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.

5b48dc40cc GSubprocess: New class for spawning child processes
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

Much rewriting and code review from Ryan Lortie <desrt@desrt.ca>

c04a063b78 GAction: add function for printing detailed names
A counterpart for parsing of detailed actions into (name, target) pairs,
this new function prints them back.

We also add a new function to check for validity of action names.  Only
valid action names are allowed when printing.  Parsing accepts _some_
invalid names for backwards compatibility.

6dc5c118e4 Implement the Desktop Action specification
For some time, the desktop file specification has supported "additional
application actions".  This is intended to allow for additional methods
of starting an app, such as a mail client having a "Compose New Message"
action that brings up the compose window instead of the folder list.

This patch adds support for this with a relatively minimal API.

In the case that the application is a GApplication and DBusActivatable,
desktop actions are translated into GActions that have been added to the
application with g_action_map_add_action().  This more or less closes
the loop on being able to activate an application with an action
invocation (instead of 'activate').

c7e965f4ee docs/: ignore gtester Makefile targets
Mark 'test', 'test-report', 'perf-report' and 'full-report' as PHONY in
docs/Makefile.am to prevent recursion of gtester into the documentation
subdirectories.  Stop including Makefile.decl from these directories
since it is no longer necessary.

This will clear up the warnings about EXTRA_DIST being defined once in
gtk-doc.make and again in Makefile.decl.

9cc222c0bf Introduce GBytesIcon
GBytesIcon is an icon that has a GBytes inside of it where the GBytes
contains some sort of encoded image in a widely-recognised file format.
Ideally this will be a PNG.

It implements GLoadableIcon, so GTK will already understand how to use
it, but we will add another patch there to make things more efficient.

db325cd6a3 application: introduce methods to mark the application as busy
This feature is intended for clients that want to signal a desktop shell
their busy state, for instance because a long-running operation is
pending.
The API works in a similar way to g_application_hold and
g_application_release: applications can call g_application_mark_busy()
to increase a counter that will keep the application marked as busy
until the counter reaches zero again.

The busy state is exported read-only on the org.gtk.Application interface
for clients to use.

b377e69685 Add gnetworking.h
Install a public "gnetworking.h" header that can be used to include
the relevant OS-dependent networking headers. This does not really
abstract away unix-vs-windows however; error codes, in particular,
are incompatible.

gnetworkingprivate.h now contains just a few internal URI-related
functions

Also add a g_networking_init() function to gnetworking.h, which can be
used to explicitly initialize OS-level networking, rather than having
that happen as a side-effect of registering GInetAddress.

ed5c17e11f GMemoryOutputStream: Add new _resizable() constructor usable from bindings
Really, the memory output stream API is too warped around the model
where it's a fixed size buffer that you've already allocated.  Even in
C, I find myself always wanting to use it to just accumulate data into
an arbitrary-sized buffer it allocates.

Unfortunately, it's also not usable from bindings because it's not
common to bind g_free() and g_realloc(), but if you just pass NULL, you
get the default of a fixed size, which is useless as per above.

I am going to use this from a gjs test case, and the GSubprocess test
cases also will use it.
