Since we are no longer using sgml mode, using /* */ to
escape block comments inside examples does not work anymore.
Switch to using line comments with //
Our check for inotify_init1() being defined is broken. We happily
declare that inotify is supported, even if the check fails.
This was originally intended to check for inotify_init1 in the libc so
that we could fall back to inotify_init if it was not yet defined.
FreeBSD has a libinotify that emulates the inotify API via kqueue. It
installs a <sys/inotify.h> header and requires linking to -linotify. We
don't want to falsely detect working inotify in this case.
Treat the lack of inotify_init1() in the libc as a lack of inotify
support. This requires only a new libc -- we still support old kernels:
in the case that inotify1_init() fails, we fall back to inotify_init().

It’s not enough to close a connection by calling g_input_stream_close()
and g_output_stream_close() on its two substreams: to close the
underlying socket, one must use g_io_stream_close(). Document that.

Since all element markup is now gone from the doc comments,
we can turn off the gtk-doc sgml mode, which means that from
now on, docbook markup is no longer allowed in doc comments.
To make this possible, we have to replace all remaining
entities in doc comments by their replacement text, & -> &
and so on.
Add support for parsing command line options with GApplication.
You can add GOptionGroup and GOptionEntry using two new APIs:
g_application_add_option_group() and
g_application_add_main_option_entries().
Also add a "handle-local-options" signal that allows handling of
commandline arguments in the local process without having to override
local_command_line.
As a special feature, you can have a %NULL @arg_data in a GOptionEntry
which will cause the argument to be stored in a GVariantDict. This
dictionary is available for inspection and modification by the
"handle-local-options" signal and can be forwarded to the primary
instance in cases of command line invocation (where it can be fetched
using g_application_command_line_get_options()).
