This is a minor performance improvement, since the pspec list for the
class now only has to be modified once, rather than twice.
It also means we now have the `GParamSpec` pointers to hand in a `props`
array, which will be used in the upcoming commits.

This lets the compiler tell us if we’ve accidentally missed a property
implementation from `get_property()` or `set_property()`.

As per previous commit we used atomic logic to handle the cancellation,
but that lead to a slightly different behavior because the file monitor
was then marked as cancelled before the vfunc implementation was called.
Use similar behavior now (by still relying on the atomic logic), by
marking the state as about-to-cancel as soon as we're starting the
cancellation (preventing other threads to cancel it), and eventually
fully marking it as cancelled.
The cancelled state may be set and read by different threads, so ensure
that it's stored and managed in an atomic way.
We could in fact end up check for `g_file_monitor_is_cancelled()` in a
thread and `g_file_monitor_cancel()` or `g_file_monitor_emit_event` in
in another one.
Nicks and blurbs don't have any practical use for gio/gobject libraries.
Leaving tests untouched since this features is still used by other libraries.
Closes#2991
Previously these properties would have been documented using the strings
from the pspec, but those will be removed in the following commit. Re-add
the documentation using those strings, but as gi-docgen documentation
comments.

Using the generic marshaller has drawbacks beyond performance. One such
drawback is that it breaks the stack unwinding from the Linux kernel due
to having unsufficient data to walk past ffi_call_unixt64. That means that
performance profiling by application developers looks grouped among
seemingly unrelated code paths.
While we can't fix the kernel unwinding here, we can provide proper
c_marshallers and va_marshallers for objects within Gio so that
performance profiling of applications is more reliable.

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.
Remove all event merging and dispatch logic from GFileMonitor. The only
implementation of GFileMonitor outside of glib is in gvfs and it already
does these things properly.
Get rid of GLocalDirectoryMonitor. We will use a single class,
GLocalFileMonitor, for both directory and file monitoring. This will
prevent every single backend from having to create two objects
separately (eg: ginotifydirectorymonitor.c and ginotifyfilemonitor.c).
Introduce GFileMonitorSource as a thread-safe cross-context dispatch
mechanism. Put it in GLocalFileMonitor. All backends will be expected
to dispatch via the source and not touch the GFileMonitor object at all
from the worker thread.
Remove all construct properties from GLocalFileMonitor and remove the
"context" construct property from GFileMonitor. All backends must now
get the information about what file to monitor from the ->start() call
which is mandatory to implement.
Remove the implementation of rate limiting in GFileMonitor and add an
implementation in GLocalFileMonitor. gvfs never did anything with this
anyway, but if it wanted to, it would have to implement it for itself.
This was done in order to get the rate_limit field into the
GFileMonitorSource so that it could be safely accessed from the worker
thread.
Expose g_local_file_is_remote() internally for NFS detection.
With the "is_remote" functionality exposed, we can now move all
functions for creating local file monitors to a proper location in
glocalfilemonitor.c
Port the inotify backend to adjust to the changes above. None of the
other backends are ported yet. Those will come in future commits.
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.
Add g_main_context_ref_thread_default(), which always returns a
reffed GMainContext, rather than sometimes returning a (non-reffed)
GMainContext, and sometimes returning NULL. This simplifies the
bookkeeping in any code that needs to keep a reference to the
thread-default context for a while.

g_thread_gettime() is an undocumented public function pointer that
points to a function that returns the monotonic time in nanoseconds.
g_get_monotonic_time() does the same in microseconds, so it can be used
instead.
GLib had one internal user in GFileMonitor that only cared about
millisecond accuracy; it has been ported to g_get_monotonic_time().
To help cross compilation, don't use glib-genmarshal in our
build. This is easy now that we have g_cclosure_marshal_generic().
In gobject/, add gmarshal.[ch] to git (making the existing entry
points stubs).
In gio/, simply switch to using g_cclosure_marshal_generic().

GFile allows for the possibility that external implementations may not
support thread-default contexts yet, via
g_file_supports_thread_contexts(). GVolumeMonitor is not yet
thread-default-context aware.
Add a test program to verify that basic gio async ops work correctly
in non-default contexts.

It was possible for a signal handler to remove the last reference and
dispose the monitor. If there were remaining pending_file_changes they
tried to dereference the disposed monitor.
This patch simply calls g_object_{ref,unref} around the loop that signals
the changes.
