156d32cb80 gobject: new g_set_weak_pointer() & g_clear_weak_pointer() helpers
Weak-pointers are currently lacking g_set_object() & g_clear_object()
helpers equivalent. New functions (and macros, both are provided) are
convenient in many case, especially for the property's notify-on-set
pattern:

  if (g_set_weak_pointer (...))
    g_object_notify (...)

Inspired by Christian Hergert's original implementation for
gnome-builder.

d951db4236 gobject: Add g_set_object() convenience function to set GObject pointers
Along the same lines as g_clear_object(), g_set_object() is a
convenience function to update a GObject pointer, handling reference
counting transparently and correctly.

Specifically, it handles the case where a pointer is set to its current
value. If handled naïvely, that could result in the object instance
being finalised. In the following code, that happens when
(my_obj == new_value) and the object has a single reference:
    g_clear_object (&my_obj);
    my_obj = g_object_ref (new_value);

It also simplifies boilerplate code such as set_property()
implementations, which are otherwise long and boring.

Test cases included.

1dc774a653 Remove g_type_init() calls
Very many testcases, some GLib tools (resource compiler, etc) and
GApplication were calling g_type_init().

Remove those uses, as they are no longer required.

These are non-threaded, but the do test dup and destroy somewhat.

fa5ff39559 Add deterministic tests for the API of GWeakRef
These don't address the thread-safety, but do address basic use.

1a1fc130ec New function: g_clear_object()
By analogy to g_clear_error, takes a pass-by-reference GObject reference
and, if non-%NULL, unrefs it and sets it equal to %NULL.

Bug #620263.
