This makes the code a little easier to understand and allows the kernel
a little bit more leeway in scheduling the callback, which is fine
because we don’t need high accuracy here.

We used to use a pipe for the dbus daemon stdout to read the defined
address, but that was already requiring a workaround to ensure that dbus
daemon children were then able to write to stdout.
However the current implementation is still causing troubles in some
cases in which the daemon is very verbose, leading to hangs when writing
to stdout.
As per this, just don't handle stdout ourself, but use instead a
specific pipe to get the address address. That can now be safely closed
once we've received the data we need.
This reverts commit d80adeaa96.

This is a workaround for the fact that forking without execing is not
easy to do correctly, and `GTestDBus` doesn’t do it correctly. However,
`GTestDBus` is de-facto deprecated and so putting any more effort in is
a waste.
This fixes an issue where a test would print duplicate output when
outputting to a fully-buffered FD, such as a pipe. This is because the
buffer is non-empty before the `fork()`, and ends up duplicated in the
parent and child processes, both of which later flush the duplicated
buffer contents.

In _g_object_unref_and_wait_weak_notify() we take a weak reference and
then call g_object_unref() in an idle callback, which may look like
we're dropping a strong reference without having one. So change the
comment to make it more clear that the reference being dropped is held
by the caller.
This reverts commit baf92d09d6.
Closes#787
According to the original commit, this change was made because otherwise
g_test_dbus_down() following a g_test_dbus_stop() hangs until it times
out. The timeout being referred to is the 30 seconds which are waited by
_g_object_unref_and_wait_weak_notify() for the GWeakNotify to be
triggered when the last strong reference to the singleton
GDBusConnection object is dropped. But the patch was not correct and the
leak should have instead been fixed by having the last strong reference
holder drop their reference on the GDBusConnection before calling
g_test_dbus_down(). Timing out after 30 seconds is the desired behavior
in the case where someone holds a reference to the singleton for that
entire period.
There are a few problems with this patch. First, as pointed out here[1],
calling g_object_run_dispose() in the idle callback means we are causing
the GWeakNotify to trigger ~immediately rather than waiting 30 seconds
to give another owner a chance to unref. Second, since someone else may
still hold a reference on the object being disposed, they may call
methods on it after it's been disposed which can seg fault as documented
here[2] and as I also saw recently in another project.
It's unclear what the original leak being fixed was, but many have been
fixed between 2013 and now. I ran all the unit tests under valgrind, and
some do fail (some consistently and some intermittently) but none of the
failures seem to only happen after this reversion commit. I also
couldn't find anywhere in the valgrind output where any GDBusConnection
objects are definitely being lost.

This commit changes a comment in _g_dbus_worker_do_read_cb() to be
slightly more useful. At least in my experience debugging an
intermittent unit test failure in another project, this failure
condition occurred because although g_test_dbus_down() ensures that the
session GDBusConnection has exit-on-close set to FALSE before killing
its dbus-daemon, there was still a GDBusConnection on the system bus
which hit this failed read code path, because we had
DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS set to the address of the #GTestDBus daemon, to
appease libudisks.
Also, make a few other minor improvements to the docs.
In file gio/gtestdbus.c, function watch_parent, there is a loop which
waits for commands sent from the parent process and kills all processes
recorded in 'pids_to_kill' array on parent process exit. The detection
of parent process exit is done by calling g_poll and checking whether
the returned event is G_IO_HUP. However, 'revents' is a bit mask, and
we should use a bitwise-AND check instead of the equality check here.
It seems to work fine on Linux, but it fails on FreeBSD because the
g_poll returns both G_IO_IN and G_IO_HUP on pipe close. This means the
watcher process continues waiting for commands after the parent process
exit, and g_io_channel_read_line returns G_IO_STATUS_EOF with 'command'
set to NULL. Then the watcher process crashes with segfault when calling
sscanf because 'command' is NULL. Since the test result is already
reported by the parent process as 'OK', this kind of crash is likely to
be unnoticed unless someone checks dmesg messages after the test:

If the watcher process crashes before killing the dbus-daemon process
spawned by the parent process, the dbus-daemon process will keep running
after all tests complete. Due to the implementation of 'communicate'
function in Python subprocess, it causes meson to crash. 'communicate'
assumes the stdout and stderr pipes are closed when the child process
exits, but it is not true if processes forked by the child process
doesn't exit. It causes Python subprocess 'communicate' function to
block on the call to poll until the timeout expires even if the test
finishes in a few seconds. Meson assumes the timeout exception always
means the test is still running. It calls 'communicate' again and
crashes because pipes no longer exist.

There's a race condition somewhere in GTestDBus that can result in
the next test being started at a time when g_bus_get() would still
return the connection that is in the process of closing. This can
be reproduced reasonably reliably by running the gapplication test
10K times in a loop.
Instead of relying on waiting for the weak reference to be released,
we can force the issue by clearing it.

Prevent the situation where errno is set by function A, then function B
is called (which is typically _(), but could be anything else) and it
overwrites errno, then errno is checked by the caller.
errno is a horrific API, and we need to be careful to save its value as
soon as a function call (which might set it) returns. i.e. Follow the
pattern:
int errsv, ret;
ret = some_call_which_might_set_errno ();
errsv = errno;
if (ret < 0)
puts (strerror (errsv));
This patch implements that pattern throughout GLib. There might be a few
places in the test code which still use errno directly. They should be
ported as necessary. It doesn’t modify all the call sites like this:
if (some_call_which_might_set_errno () && errno == ESOMETHING)
since the refactoring involved is probably more harmful than beneficial
there. It does, however, refactor other call sites regardless of whether
they were originally buggy.

If we have an input parameter (or return value) we need to use (nullable).
However, if it is an (inout) or (out) parameter, (optional) is sufficient.
It looks like (nullable) could be used for everything according to the
Annotation documentation, but (optional) is more specific.
This is the right thing to do for the "a session is a user-session"
model implemented in dbus 1.9.14, which is described in
<http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dbus/2015-January/016522.html>.
It also resembles sd-bus' behaviour, although sd-bus will only try
kdbus and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus, and never runs dbus-launch.
On systems following the more traditional "a session is a login-session"
model, X_R_D/bus won't exist, so it is harmless to check for it before
falling back to X11 autolaunching. Again, this matches the behaviour
of current libdbus and sd-bus versions.
Now that we do this, g_test_dbus_unset() needs to clear XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
as well as everything else.

The stdout FD passed to dbus-daemon is propagated to all its child
processes, such as service activated processes. If we close the FD after
reading the bus address from the daemon, any child process which
subsequently writes to stdout (e.g. for logging) will get a SIGPIPE and
explode.
Instead of closing the stdout FD immediately after dbus-daemon has
spawned, keep it open until the daemon is killed.

Windows does not like g_unlink() to be called on files whose file
descriptor is still open, so doing that would cause a permission
denied error. Since the fd is not used in that function after
acquiring the temp file, close it earlier before
g_file_set_contents(), so that it can complete successfully.
This fixes a number of GTK+ tests on Windows.

In Windows development environments that have it, <unistd.h> is mostly
just a wrapper around several other native headers (in particular,
<io.h>, which contains read(), close(), etc, and <process.h>, which
contains getpid()). But given that some Windows dev environments don't
have <unistd.h>, everything that uses those functions on Windows
already needed to include the correct Windows header as well, and so
there is never any point to including <unistd.h> on Windows.
Also, remove some <unistd.h> includes (and a few others) that were
unnecessary even on unix.

As it turns out, we have examples of internal functions called
type_name_get_private() in the wild (especially among older libraries),
so we need to use a name for the per-instance private data getter
function that hopefully won't conflict with anything.
