This is a bit of a compromise. Since the option parsing in
`GApplication` is built on `GOptionContext`, there’s no way to
reliably indicate that a given option was passed by the user, other than
by its value changing. If the default value is zero, but the user
explicitly passed zero, nothing changes, so it’s not obvious that the
option was explicitly provided.
When just `GOptionContext` is being used, this is fine, as that’s
obvious what will happen from the way the API is built. With
`GApplication::handle-local-options`, though, the `GVariantDict`
provided by GLib to the callback claims to only contain the values of
the options provided by the user, and no defaults.
It’s not actually possible for GLib to do that reliably.
Previously, GLib was dropping all numeric values which were zero valued
(i.e. the defaults), as they *could* have been the defaults. It seems
like a slightly better behaviour to instead *not* drop those numeric
values, and err on the side of reporting some defaults as user-provided
(even if they weren’t) rather than dropping some user-provided values
which happen to be the defaults.
This adds a test for the case of parsing a double; the cases for
integers are analogous.

Fixes: #2329
An application that has been shut down is still marked as registered
even if its implementation has been already destroyed.
This may lead to unguarded crashes when calling functions that have
assumptions for being used with registered applications.
So, when an application is registered, mark it as unregistered just
before destroying its implementation and after being shut down, so that
we follow the registration process in reversed order.
Added tests
Some of these have a negative master/slave connotation, and they add no
value. Change or drop them.

Non-glibc gettext implementation seems to decide the language from
LC_MESSAGES environment variable instead of LC_MESSAGES locale, so
we should set both environment variable and locale when running tests
which need translation from specific languages.
Tighten up the validation of application IDs so they are always exactly
D-Bus well-known names. This is a slight change to the accepted format,
but since anyone using the API with an application ID which was
previously valid, but which was not a valid D-Bus well-known name, would
have received an error from D-Bus when their application tried to
register on the bus, I think this break is acceptable.
It will affect any applications which have application IDs which are not
valid D-Bus well-known names, and which use the G_APPLICATION_NON_UNIQUE
flag. From a quick search in Debian Codesearch, no C applications use
that flag.
Update the documentation to use the rules from the D-Bus specification,
including the latest advice discouraging use of hyphens:
https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#message-protocol-names-bus
Update the tests:
• Add the examples from the documentation to validate them.
• Especially the venerable 7-zip.org example.
• Move a couple of tests from expected-failure to expected-success:
they are valid D-Bus well-known names even if they’re a bit weird.

This will make the assertion failure messages a little more useful, and
prevent the assertions being compiled out with G_DISABLE_ASSERT.
Introduces no functional changes.

This should already work according to the documentation, but doesn't
because main_options is consumed before the check in
g_application_parse_command_line().
Fix by moving the check for main_options up.

We had a GApplication testcase that handled both open and commandline.
This only way that this worked was by implementing the commandline
handler without actually setting the HANDLES_COMMAND_LINE flag.
This behaviour is now invalid, so just rip out the offending part of the
test.

If the goal is to make sure we don't have a dbus connection, it has
to call g_test_dbus_unset() instead which is much more complete.
In this case, g_test_dbus_unset() is called already, so it should be
fine.

The three processes this test creates need to be executed
in order, and g_usleep was used to guarantee that.
However, under heavy load, that is not enough. Instead,
wait until the children start by making sure they have
written to stdout before proceeding any further.

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.

If we can't get on the session bus, just behave like a normal non-unique
application.
This turns out to be remarkably easy to implement and lets us avoid
adding a 'dummy' backend.
Add a test for this case as well.
Idea from Zachary Dovel.

The GApplication test case tried to fork() while using GMainLoop,
causing problems. Avoid doing that by splitting the child process into
a separate program and spawning it in the usual way.
