The GVariant documentation says you can assume that types of no more
than 32 bits may be assumed to be promoted to int by the usual
promotions. If we're going to document that, we should statically
assert that it's true, i.e. sizeof (int) >= sizeof (int32_t).
All reasonable modern platforms are either ILP32 (32-bit platforms),
LP64 (64-bit Linux, *BSD etc.), or LLP64 (64-bit Windows): there have
been ILP64 platforms in the past, but ILP64 has the compelling
disadvantage that {signed char, short, int} can't possibly provide
all of {int8_t, int16_t, int32_t} unless int is 32 bits long.

ISO C allows compilers to make enums smaller than int if their
enumerated values would all fit in the range of a smaller type.
In practice, I suspect that in relevant compilers, all enums whose
values fit in the range INT32_MIN to INT32_MAX (inclusive) are the same
size as int. ISO C allows compiler to break that assumption, but those
that do would break code that works fine in other compilers, making the
compiler look bad, for no significant benefit. I conjecture that such
compilers are not popular.
Let's statically assert that my assumption holds. If all goes well,
GLib will continue to compile on every relevant platform; if it
fails to compile on some platform as a result of this change, then
there are probably a lot of naive uses of enums that need auditing
for this assumption.

This code assumes that int is exactly 32 bits, and that pointers
are either 4 or 8 bits, on platforms with __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST.
In practice this is going to be true.
A previous attempt at this assertion placed the G_STATIC_ASSERT
at the top level in gatomic.h, but that broke anjuta, which
redefined __unused__ at the time. These assertions are about the
platform/compiler ABI, so it's sufficient to check them once,
while compiling GLib itself; accordingly, move them to the
implementation.

This helps with static linking. When application statically links with
libgio, it needs to link against libmount explicitly. When it is
mentioned in Libs.private, build system can figure out with which extra
libs to link against with help of pkg-config.

If g_socket_receive_message_with_timeout() is called with messages ==
NULL set the msg_control buffer to empty to not request the control
messages from recvmsg() at all.
This completely disables the control message processing and reduces
overhead, which might be critical at high packet rate.

gtk-doc doesn’t make the return type clear, because these are macros
rather than inline functions, so people often have to guess at the
return type (or look it up from g_signal_connect_closure(), but that’s
hard work).
Make it clear that the return type for handler IDs is gulong. While
there, fix the capitalisation of ‘id’ to ‘ID’ in a few places.
g_assert() gets completely compiled out if G_DISABLE_ASSERT is defined,
so applications should not depend on side effects of the expression in
an assertion.
Clarify that the arguments parameter can be zero if the function being
annotated just accepts a string format argument, and no varargs for it
(for example, if it takes a va_list of arguments instead).
Add some links to the GCC documentation for the `format` attribute.
This is to allow specification of the baseline Visual Studio 201x version as
the baseline version may not be 2010 anymore as we begin to require C99
features that will require Visual Studio 2013 or later.
We are starting to require C99 features that can only be supported in
Visual Studio 2013 and later, so we need to prepare rules for Visual Studio
2013 to be our baseline version for Visual Studio builds, so that we can
move the templates from Visual Studio 2010 to Visual Studio 2013.
As this strives to be a shared autotools module between projects, there is
duplication at this point, though, because we still want to support
2008~2012 for projects that do not yet require the C99 features and depends
on GLib-2.50.x/GTK+-3.22.x or earlier.
This commit broke some tests, and I don't have the time
to fix up all the expected output, so I'll revert the changes
to the affected files for now.
This needs to be redone with the necessary test fixes.
Make the Makefile.am targets for generating the Visual Studio projects re-generate the
project files and the header listings whenever the Makefile.am's that include
build/Makefile.msvcproj changes, so that whenever a source/header is added, they will
be reflected in the projects and in the property sheets that are used to copy the
headers.
Also ensure that these are applied to the vs11, vs12 and vs14 projects when this
happens, as they are copied and processed from the Visual Studio 2010 projects.
So that we don't get "deprecation" (availability) warnings for
new functionality of GLib 2.51/2.52.
