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.

This is a simple wrapper around g_date_time_format_iso8601() which
always produces ISO 8601 dates, without people having to remember the
format string for them (and with the convenience of terminating UTC
dates with ‘Z’ rather than ‘+00’).

Commit 8cc92bcca ("meson: Turn selinux into a meson feature and make it
auto by default") update the selinux option to be a feature with
instead of a boolean. Update the documentation to reflect this.
Closes: #1823
example lists [(1, 2), (3, 4.0)], but mentions numbers
1 and 4 being parsed as integrers, this seems wrong as
4.0 its explicitly parsed as double.

Queries the charset used by the associated console, which does not
necessarily match the charset of the current locale as returned by
g_get_charset.

This is a new function along the same lines as g_test_bug(): to allow
developers to annotate unit tests with information about the test (what
it tests, how it tests it) for future developers to read and learn from.
It will also output this summary as a comment in the test’s TAP output,
which might clarify test results.
Includes a unit test.

It allows to disconnect a signal handler from GObject instance and at the same
time to nullify the signal handler.
Provided also a macro for handler type conversion.
Add warnings about their deprecation everywhere. The tools will continue
to work until we break API, but will be less well maintained. You should
use TAP for communicating test results to the test harness provided by
your build system or CI system instead.

This adds two new helpers that allow for inserting pre-allocated GList
elements to the queue similar to existing helpers. This may be advantagous
in some situations such as statically allocated GList elements.
Some of these have a negative master/slave connotation, and they add no
value. Change or drop them.

dep-list.c isn’t generated, but contains non-documentation gtk-doc-style
comments which are probably better left in place, since the code is
partially external to GLib.

Those lists were getting very long. We can’t quite entirely automate the
list generation since Meson doesn’t have a range() function, but we can
at least combine three of them into one.

Install a Vectored Exception Handler[0]. Its sole purpose is to catch
some exceptions (access violations, stack overflows, illegal
instructions and debug breaks - by default, but it can be made to catch
any exception for which a code is known) and run a debugger in response.
This allows W32 glib applications to be run without a debugger,
but at the same time allows a debugger to be attached in case
something happens.
The debugger is run with a new console, unless an environment variable
is set to allow it to inherit the console of the crashing process.
The short list of handleable exceptions is there to ensure that
this handler won't run a debugger to "handle" utility exceptions,
such as the one that is used to communicate thread names to a debugger.
The handler is installed to be called last, and shouldn't interfere
with any user-installed handlers.
There's nothing fancy about the way it runs a debugger (it doesn't even
support unicode in paths), and it deliberately avoids using glib code.
The handler will also print a bit of information about the exception
that it caught, and even more information for well-known exceptions,
such as access violation.
The whole scheme is similar to AeDebug[1] and, in fact, the signal-event
gdb command was originally implemented for this very purpose.
