aclocal's ability to compare the version of macros and use the latest
version relies on the serial number being incremented on every change,
or at least on every functional change.
Fixes: 6f26637e "m4macros: replace obsolete macros AC_TRY_RUN and AC_TRY_LINK in glib-2.0.m4"

Running autoconf 2.70 with -Wall,error on a configure.ac that uses
AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0 gives:
configure.ac:261: warning: The macro `AC_TRY_RUN' is obsolete.
configure.ac:261: You should run autoupdate.
./lib/autoconf/general.m4:2996: AC_TRY_RUN is expanded from...
/usr/share/aclocal/glib-2.0.m4:11: AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0 is expanded from...
configure.ac:261: the top level
configure.ac:261: warning: The macro `AC_TRY_LINK' is obsolete.
configure.ac:261: You should run autoupdate.
./lib/autoconf/general.m4:2919: AC_TRY_LINK is expanded from...
/usr/share/aclocal/glib-2.0.m4:11: AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0 is expanded from...
configure.ac:261: the top level
Run autoupdate on glib-2.0.m4 to change AC_TRY_RUN and AC_TRY_LINK into
the suggested alternative, and adjust the formatting a little bit.
The macros used in the alternative existed for long enough that there
shouldn't be a problem with backwards compatibility.

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There are still some outdated or loaded terms used in GLib, mostly to do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!

We unconditionally appended ">= $min_glib_version" to the modules to
look for, even though we had already included
"glib-2.0 >= $min_glib_version" in our list. When requesting additional
modules, this was fine, for example
AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0([2.58], [:], [:], [gobject gio])
ended up asking pkg-config for
glib-2.0 >= 2.58 gobject-2.0 gio-2.0 >= 2.58
which is redundant (since they all share a version number) but
otherwise OK.
However,
AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0([2.58], [:], [:], [])
ended up asking pkg-config for
glib-2.0 >= 2.58 >= 2.58
which is not OK; the second ">=" was parsed as a bizarrely-named package
to check for, and obviously few people have ">=.pc" installed.

Fixes: 4bb16f48 "m4macros: Allow information from pkg-config to be overridden"
By using PKG_CHECK_VAR, we declare $GLIB_COMPILE_SCHEMAS,
$GLIB_GENMARSHAL, $GOBJECT_QUERY, $GLIB_MKENUMS and
$GLIB_COMPILE_RESOURCES as Autoconf "precious variables" with AC_ARG_VAR,
similar to $PKG_CONFIG and $CC, so that they can be put on a configure
command line:
./configure GLIB_COMPILE_RESOURCES=my-glib-compile-resources
If they are set to a non-empty value, PKG_CHECK_VAR will use that
instead of auto-detecting from pkg-config, so that builders can
override them, for example when cross-compiling.
Similarly, use the standard PKG_CHECK_MODULES macro to get GLib's CFLAGS
and LIBS.
It's possible that most of the rest of each macro can also disappear,
but for the moment I've given them the benefit of the doubt.
This does result in printing "checking for GLIB" twice (once for
PKG_CHECK_MODULES and once for GLib's custom checks), but if you're
using Autotools, you probably don't have a strong objection to overly
verbose output.

Remove workarounds for NeXTStep (last released in 1995), SunOS (1994),
HP-UX 9.x (1992) and 10.x (1995), OSF/1 / Digital UNIX / Tru64 UNIX
4.x (1999), and AIX 4.x (1999).
HP-UX 11 implements dlopen(), so dropping support for earlier versions
also lets us remove the HP-UX-specific gmodule-dld.

When using signed, we get complaints from gcc about comparing signed to
unsigned with -Wsign-compare. And combined with -Werror in users' CFLAGS
it breaks configure runs.
Just use the C library instead to create the file. Helps building
using Wine. Not that I think we want to endorse that, but accepting
this minimal patch doesn't hurt. From bug #590016.
