00bfb3ab44 tree: Fix various typos and outdated terminology
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There are still some outdated or loaded terms used in GLib, mostly to do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!

fdfadfc276 Add missing 'extern' to the dllexport version of GLIB_VAR/GOBJECT_VAR
The __declspec(dllexport) attribute in itself doesn't imply
'extern' - thus any intended variable declaration with
GLIB_VAR/GOBJECT_VAR would actually be a variable definition. With
C compilers defaulting to -fcommon, this isn't an issue, but
upcoming compilers (GCC 10 and Clang 11) will default to -fno-common,
ending up with duplicate definitions of these variables.

40ff475977 Annotate various types and macros as deprecated
These have all been documented as deprecated for a long time, but we’ve
never had a way to programmatically mark them as deprecated. Do that
now.

This is based on the list of deprecations from the reverted commit
80fcb1bc2.

e5ba5845a1 Revert "headers: Add various missing G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED guards"
This reverts commit 80fcb1bc26.

G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED should never be used by anybody, least of all by
GLib. We have deprecation annotations for the compiler, these days, and
they are much better suited than a macro that makes symbols appear and
disappear. The fact that gtk-doc doesn't understand the deprecation
annotations is a limitation of gtk-doc, and it's gtk-doc that ought to be
fixed.

Commit 80fcb1bc broke GStreamer, which disables old API that was
deprecated before the introduction of the deprecation annotations, but
still uses newly deprecated one, and relies on the deprecation
annotations to do their thing. It also broke libsoup, as it uses
GValueArray in its own API.

80fcb1bc26 headers: Add various missing G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED guards
As pointed out by gtk-doc, these are all symbols which have been marked
as deprecated, but which aren’t protected by a deprecation guard. We
can’t use G_DEPRECATED_IN_* for them, as they are all non-function
symbols. Instead, wrap them in #ifndef G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED.

In some cases, we also need to wrap one or two functions which use the
deprecated types in G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED too.

cc4de801c9 gobject: Reimplement g_param_values_cmp() for GParamSpecVariant
The existing implementation was completely incorrect (despite the fix in
commit 566e64a66) — it always compared GVariants by pointer, rather than
by value.

Reimplement it to compare them by value where possible, depending on
their type. The core of this implementation is g_variant_compare(). See
the documentation and tests for further details of the new sort order.

This adds documentation and tests.

b91c476827 Add a new _GLIB_EXTERN macro for "extern"
This macro simply evaluates the "extern" unless it has been explicitly
defined to something else.

All of the version macros (including the unversioned deprecation markers
and GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL) now include _GLIB_EXTERN as part of their
definition.

G_INLINE has also been modified to use _GLIB_EXTERN where appropriate.

This macro should never be used outside of the gmacros.h/gversonmacros.h
headers.

The effect of this patch is that "extern" has now been added to all
functions declared in installed headers.  Strictly speaking, this is
something we should have had all along...

GLIB_VAR and GOBJECT_VAR have also been modified to use _GLIB_EXTERN on
non-Windows, instead of "extern" which they were using before.  The
eventual goal is to use the normal version/deprecation macros on
exported variables and drop GLIB_VAR but we need to see how this will
work on Windows before we go ahead with that.

0156092a42 various: add GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL everywhere else
Add the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL annotation to all old functions (that
haven't already been annotated with the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_* macros or a
deprecation macro).

If we discover in the future that we cannot use only one macro on
Windows, it will be an easy sed patch to fix that.

0ac9ab4e27 Deprecate GValueArray
The GValueArray type was added in a time, during the Jurassic era or so,
when GArray did not have a representable GType. The GValueArray API has
various issues as well:

  - it doesn't match the other GLib array types;
  - it is not reference counted;
  - the structure is fully exposed on the stack, so it cannot be
    extended to add reference counting;
  - it cannot be forcibly resized.

The nice thing is that now we have a GArray type that can replace in
full GValueArray, so we can deprecate the latter, and reduce the
complexity in GLib, application code, and bindings.

	types.

	of the old g_value_convert(). added G_PARAM_LAX_VALIDATION flag so
	validation alterations may be valid a part of the property setting
	process.

	* gparamspecs.[hc]: made value comparisons stable (for sort applications).
	added GParamSpecValueArray, a param spec for value arrays and
	GParamSpecClosure. nuked the value exchange functions and
	GParamSpecCCallback.

	* gtype.[hc]: catch unintialized usages of the type system with
	g_return_val_if_uninitialized(). introduced G_TYPE_FLAG_VALUE_ABSTRACT
	to flag types that introduce a value table, but can't be used for
	g_value_init(). cleaned up reserved type ids.

	* gvalue.[hc]: code cleanups and saner checking.
	nuked the value exchange API. implemented value transformations, we
	can't really "convert" values, rather transforms are an anylogy to
	C casts, real conversions need a param spec for validation, which is
	why g_param_value_convert() does real conversions now.

	* gvaluearray.[hc]: new files that implement a GValueArray, a struct
	that can hold inhomogeneous arrays of value (to that extend that it
	also allowes undefined values, i.e. G_VALUE_TYPE(value)==0).
	this is exposed to the type system as a boxed type.

	* gvaluetransform.c: new file implementing most of the former value
	exchange functions as single-sided transformations.

	* gvaluetypes.[hc]: nuked G_TYPE_CCALLBACK, added
	g_value_set_string_take_ownership().

	* *.h: s/G_IS_VALUE_/G_VALUE_HOLDS_/.

	* gtype.c (type_data_make_W):
	(type_data_last_unref_Wm): fixed invalid memory freeing.

	* gobject.c (g_object_last_unref): destroy signal handlers associated

	signal connections at once.
	(g_object_disconnect): likewise, for disconnections.

	* gparam.[hc] (g_param_spec_pool_lookup): took out trailer support.

	* gvalue.[hc]: marked g_value_fits_pointer() and g_value_peek_pointer()

e773d7dba6 fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.
Mon Dec 11 04:44:11 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gboxed.c: fixed dealing with collection/lcopy of NULL values.

	* gclosure.h: removed insane ramblings, added G_CALLBACK() a casting
	convenience macro.

	* Makefile.am: cleanups, marshaller generation rules.

	* gmarshal.[hc]: new files with GRuntime standard marshallers.

	* glib-genmarshal.c: fix log domain, support gruntime standard
	marshallers, suport G_TYPE_PARAM, come with extern "C" and
	#include gmarshal.h.

	* glib-genmarshal.1: reflect glib-genmarshal.c updates.

	* gobject.[hc]: implement object constructor. rework parameter
	changed notification queueing, we support queue freezes now and
	don't dispatch from an idle handler anymore.
	parameter->property rename hassle.
	implemented ::properties_changed and ::notify::* signals for
	property change notification (the later supports property names
	as details). added signal connection and named data properties.
	(g_signal_connect_object): new function to setup while_alive
	connections.
	(g_object_class_install_property): sink properties now, since they
	are initially floating.
	(g_object_steal_data):
	(g_object_set_data_full):
	(g_object_set_data):
	(g_object_get_data): set/get data by using g_datalist_*() functions
	directly.
	(g_object_queue_param_changed): nuked.
	(g_object_freeze_notify): start queueing of property changes (freeze/
	thaw calls stack).
	(g_object_notify): announce changes of a certain property directly.
	(g_object_thaw_notify): process queue of property changes, therefore
	emitting GObject::notify::detail with detail being the changed
	properties names.
	(G_OBJECT_WARN_INVALID_PROPERTY_ID): saner macro variant of former
	G_WARN_INVALID_PARAM_ID().

	* gparam.[hc]: param specs are now initially floating and need to be
	sunken with g_param_spec_sink(), support G_TYPE_PARAM values.
	added G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT and G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY parameter flags,
	required by GObjectClass.constructor().

	* gparamspecs.[hc]: added GParamSpecParam, GParamSpecPointer and
	GParamSpecCCallback, param specs for G_TYPE_PARAM, G_TYPE_POINTER
	and G_TYPE_CCALLBACK respectively.

	* gsignal.[hc]: cleanups.
	(signal_id_lookup): after walking the anchestry, try interfaces as well.
	(g_signal_new): new function to create signals from varargs type list.
	(g_signal_connect_closure): closure connection variant that works from
	signal name+detail.
	(g_signal_connect_data): c handler connection variant that works from
	signal name+detail.
	(g_signal_emit_valist): emit signal for an instance with paraneters
	collected from a va_list.
	(g_signal_emit): emit signal, taking parameters from varargs list.
	(g_signal_emit_by_name): same as g_signal_emit, working from
	signal name+detail.
	(signal_emit_R): return whether return_value needs to be altered.

	* gtype.[hc]: set log-domain to GRuntime, i'm slowly getting to all
	the points that need to reflect the upcoming rename.
	melt g_type_conforms_to() functionality into g_type_is_a(), as that
	is what we really want (liskov substitution principle).
	assorted changes to other files due to conforms_to->is_a.

	* gvalue.[hc]: implemented g_value_set_instance() that sets a value
	from an instantiatable type via the value_table's collect_value()
	function (based on an idea from James Henstridge <james@daa.com.au>).
	cleanups/fixes.

	* gvaluetypes.[hc]: implement G_TYPE_CCALLBACK and G_TYPE_PARAM.

Fri Jun 23 17:20:26 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * glib.h: define gstring in terms of gchar*. this typedef reflects
        the type name of the primitive G_TYPE_STRING in the gobject module.

Sat Jun 24 23:03:04 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

        * gtype.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_CHAR, G_TYPE_UCHAR, G_TYPE_BOOLEAN,
        G_TYPE_INT, G_TYPE_UINT, G_TYPE_LONG, G_TYPE_ULONG, G_TYPE_FLOAT,
        G_TYPE_DOUBLE and G_TYPE_STRING fundamental types.
        added a GTypeValueTable* pointer to GTypeInfo structure for types
        to implement GValue handling functions.
        GTypeValueTable contains the following members:
          value_init(): initialize a GValue structure.
          value_free(): free GValue structure contents (optional).
          value_copy(): copy one GValue contents to another GValue structure of
          collect_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
          to be collected by collect_value().
          collect_value(): variable arguments collection function (optional).
          lcopy_type: varargs collection type for the first variable argument
          to be location copyied by lcopy_value().
          lcopy_value(): variable arguments location copy function (optional).
        g_type_value_table_peek(): new function to retrive the GTypeValueTable*
        for a type node. ValueTables get inherited from parent types, unless
        overridden through the GTypeInfo structure. internally, GTypeValueTable
        support means an added overhead of one pointer per static or used
        dynamic type node.
        g_type_add_class_cache_func(): provide a cache_func/data pair to be
        called  prior to a type nodes last_unref() function, this can be used
        to prevent premature class destruction. multiple installed cache_func()
        will be chained upon last_unref() untill one of them returns TRUE.
        the cache_func()s have to check the type id passed in to figure whether
        they actually wants to cache the class of this type (since any types are
        routed through the cache_func() chain).
        g_type_remove_class_cache_func(): remove a previously installed
        cache_func/data pair. the cache maintained by this function has to be
        clear when calling g_type_remove_class_cache_func() to avoid leaks.
        g_type_class_unref_uncached(): class unref function for cache_func()
        implementations, unreferences a class omitting the cache chain (and
        therefore unref->cache->unref->... loops).

        * gvaluetypes.[hc]: provide the value setters/getters for the primitive
        fundamental types boolean, char, uchar, int, uint, long, ulong, float,
        double and string.

        * gvalue.[hc]: provide G_TYPE_IS_VALUE() in terms of whether a
        GTypeValueTable is provided for this type.
        removed g_value_init_default(), g_value_validate(), g_value_defaults(),
        g_value_set_default() and g_values_cmp() as these are supplied by the
        GParamSpec API now.
        moved g_values_exchange() into the "implementation details" section,
        since it just provides the underlying functionality for
        g_value_convert().

        * gvaluecollector.h: renamed the varargs value container from
        GParamCValue to GTypeCValue as the value collection methods are
        supplied by the type system now.
        G_PARAM_COLLECT_VALUE() and G_PARAM_LCOPY_VALUE() got renamed to
        G_VALUE_COLLECT() and G_VALUE_LCOPY() and operate without a
        GParamSpec structure now.

        * genums.h: macros cleanups/fixes.

        * genum.c: provide G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS type
        and assorted g_value_{s|g}et_{enum|flags}() implementations.

        * gobject.[hc]:
        provide G_IS_VALUE_OBJECT(), G_TYPE_OBJECT ValueTable methods
        and g_value_{s|g}et_object().

        * gparam.[hc]: reduced class to value_set_default(),
        value_validate() and values_cmp(). also parameters now need to fill
        in a GType value_type; field to indicate the GValue type they
        are handling. provide g_param_value_set_default(),
        g_param_value_defaults(), g_param_value_validate() and
        g_param_values_cmp().

        * gparamspecs.[hc]: got rid of the g_value_* functions and
        the G_IS_VALUE_* macros. adapted param spec implementations
        according to the GParamSpecClass changes.

Fri May  5 01:15:48 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* gtype.h: add reserved fundamental ids for gtk types (for transition
	time). added G_TYPE_FUNDAMENTAL_MAX for gtk.

Mon Apr 17 20:45:50 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib-gobject.c (g_object_base_class_finalize): oops, don't unset
	n_params prior to destructing them.

Tue Apr 11 04:28:10 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* fixed a couple of bugs in the initial parameter/object
	implementations, after getting beast running on GObject and GValue.

Fri Apr  7 04:27:49 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib-gobject.[hc]: completed parameter set/get implementations,
	along with asyncronous parameter changed notification queue.

Sun Apr  2 04:54:36 2000  Tim Janik  <timj@gtk.org>

	* glib-gobject.[hc]: GObject implementation, that is facilities
	for setting/getting quarked data and reference counting.

	* glib-gparamspecs.[hc]: first actuall parameter implementations
	for GLib, so far we have: char, uchar, bool, int, uint, long,
	ulong, enum, flags, float, double, string and object. each of these
	GParamSpecs is a new instantiatable type in its own respect,
	so the .c file derives 13 new types from G_TYPE_PARAM and
	defines over 50 (*2) conversion facilities.

	* glib-gvaluecollector.h: generic varargs handling stubs for
	GParamSpecs, private header file (does get installed for
	inclusion into user code though).

	* glib-gvalue.[hc]: GValue functionality implementation.

	* glib-gparam.[hc]: basis GParamSpec implementation for
	the virtual base type G_TYPE_PARAM.

        * glib-genums.[hc]: enum/flags type implementation, based on
	bseenum.[hc].

	* glib-extra.[hc]: GLib additions, including 1.3 compatibility
	routines and various other functions, from string manipulation
	over list manipulation up to a unix signal GSource.

	* glib-gtype.[hc]: GLib Type System implementation, heavily
	based on BSE's dynamic type system.
