ed4f29cce8 gio: Change ‘unrecognised’ to ‘unrecognized’ in various user-visible places
The source language of GLib is technically en-US, so we should
consistently use en-US spellings.

548ec9f186 docs: Reduce nesting of documentation directories
The `gi-docgen` tool is not designed to be used like that. In
particular, when nesting documentation directories, the generated
`*.devhelp2` files (needed by Devhelp to show the documentation) are
nested one directory level too deep for Devhelp to find them, and hence
are useless, and the documentation doesn’t show up in this common
documentation viewer.

So, change the installed documentation directory hierarchy:
 * `${PREFIX}/share/doc/glib-2.0/gio` → `${PREFIX}/share/doc/gio-2.0`
 * `${PREFIX}/share/doc/glib-2.0/glib-unix` →
   `${PREFIX}/share/doc/glib-unix-2.0`
 * `${PREFIX}/share/doc/glib-2.0/gobject` →
   `${PREFIX}/share/doc/gobject-2.0`
 * etc.
 * `${PREFIX}/share/doc/glib-2.0/glib` → `${PREFIX}/share/doc/glib-2.0`

This is going to seem like pointless churn (the contents of the
documentation have not changed), and packagers may mourn the split of
content in `/usr/share/doc` from `/usr/share/doc/${package_name}` to
`/usr/share/doc/${pkg_config_id}` instead, but that seems to be the best
approach to fix this issue in GLib. gi-docgen’s behaviour does feel
fairly consistent and correct with the rest of how it works (single
output directory).

4314944e56 introspection: Drop Unix and Win32 prefixes from platform specific APIs
So now introspection users will have to call `GLibUnix.open_pipe()`
rather than `GLibUnix.unix_open_pipe()` — or
`GLibWin32.check_windows_version()` rather than
`GLibWin32.win32_check_windows_version()`.

c498c9a8c9 docs: Split out platform specific GIO and GLib documentation
This creates `GioUnix`, `GioWin32`, `GLibUnix` and `GLibWin32`. These
bodies of documentation are in addition to the main, platform agnostic,
documentation for both libraries.

This commit necessarily includes various mechanical changes to update
the repository namespace used in various existing documentation links to
platform specific APIs.

fc7942f46b gdbus-codegen: If writing body to stdout, don't try to include header
If we're writing the body to standard output, we cannot know what the
filename of the corresponding header is going to be, but it seems
vanishingly unlikely that it will be either `stdout.h` (which we would
traditionally have generated) or `-.h` (which we would have generated
since !3886).

This makes some of the output snippets sufficiently short that black(1)
requires that they are folded into a single line.

aa28326b87 docs: Allow building man pages without the reference documentation
Now that the reference documentation uses gi-docgen, it's more
troublesome to generate in less standard build scenarios like
cross-compiling.

In distributions like Debian, reference documentation is generally
packaged separately (in libglib2.0-doc in Debian's case), but man pages
are generally packaged alongside the executables themselves (in the
libglib2.0-bin and libglib2.0-dev-bin packages, in Debian's case). We
can exclude the reference documentation when cross-compiling, but ideally
we would like the man pages to still be built, so that a cross-compiled
libglib2.0-bin or libglib2.0-dev-bin package has the same content as a
native build.

They are now installed to (e.g.)

We might want to drop one level of nesting out of that, but for the
moment I thought I’d keep it in so we can disambiguate by installed
major version.

031e65808d docs: Port the man pages from DocBook to reStructuredText
So they are consistent with the way we’re building man pages in other
projects, and because some people are allergic to XML.

This changes the build-time dependencies from `xsltproc` to `rst2man`,
and also takes the opportunity to change the `-Dman` Meson option from a
boolean to a feature (so you should use `-Dman-pages={enabled,disabled}`
now, rather than `-Dman={true,false}`).

5bc6c2035a gio: Rename GTK_USE_PORTAL to GIO_USE_PORTALS
The `GTK_USE_PORTAL` environment variable has started to be misused by
users, which is causing deployment issues (such as portal services
themselves ending up being forced to use portals, which is never going
to work).

Try and sidestep users’ broken configurations by renaming the
environment variable, and also separating it from the old GTK
environment variable, since the GLib one affects a lot more processes.
This environment variable is meant to be used for
debugging and development, and never in production.

GTK already renamed their environment variable in
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/4829, so keeping the
`GTK_USE_PORTAL` name in GLib doesn’t make sense anyway.
