We hadn’t been substituting the version number in properly for a while,
so maybe just abandon that approach and rewrite the instructions to not
refer to a specific version number.
This simplifies things a bit, and means the install instructions can be
read online in GitLab.

So long, and thanks for everything. We’re a Meson-only shop now.
glib-2-58 will remain the last stable GLib release series which is
buildable using autotools.
We continue to install autoconf macros for autotools-using projects
which depend on GLib; they are stable API.

There seems to be little point in substituting the version number into
README (using autotools). Rename it to README.md and distribute that
verbatim (with autotools and Meson) instead.
Autotools still requires that README exists, so leave a stub README file
in place which redirects people to README.md. This can be dropped when
we drop autotools support.

We have not updated nor used this script for a long time, and nowadays
Meson makes it much easier to build on Windows for either Visual Studio
or MinGW, even straight from a GIT checkout, so it's about time that we
drop the glib-zip script from the source tree.
Disable gio tests on Windows, fix .gitignore to not ignore
config.h.meson, and add more things to it.
Rename the library file naming and versioning to match what Autotools
outputs, e.g., libglib-2.0.so.0.5000.2 on Linux, libglib-2.0-0.dll and
glib-2.0-0.dll on Windows with MSVC.
Several more tiny fixes, more executables built and installed, install
pkg-config and m4 files, fix building of gobject tests.
Changes to gdbus-codegen to support out-of-tree builds without
environment variables set (which you can't in Meson). We now add the
build directory to the Python module search path.
See https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/InstalledTests for more
information.
The tests now support being run both uninstalled and installed, so
'make check' works for those who want it. For tests which need data
files, the way this works is they look in the compiled in value of
SRCDIR by default, and the generated tests use "env G_TEST_DATA=" to
override that.
This patch only converts glib/tests for now; if this patch looks good,
I'll do the rest of the tests.

"make tags" is the best way to produce tags in an automake project and
yet very few people are using it so the tags files it generates are never
added to the .gitignore files.
Add TAGS files to .gitignore then.

* Add 'invoke' style method, which can be used to call an interaction
from any thread. The interaction will be run in the appropriate
#GMainContext
* Sync methods can be called whether main loop is running or not.
* Derived classes can choose to implement only sync or async
interaction method, and the invoke method will fill in the blanks.
* Documentation for the above.
* Tests for the above.

* autogen.sh: for the benefit of git users, checkout build/ if it is
missing
* .gitignore: but after that, ignore it.
