Since we have the type of the GValue we're going to initialize, we can
allow passing an empty (but valid) GValue when retrieving the default
value of a GParamSpec.
This will eliminate additional checks and an unnecessary reset.
Previously, these GTimeZone objects were being cached in the `time_zones` cache, but dropped from it when their final ref was dropped (which was frequently). That meant additional reads of `/etc/localtime` next time they were created, which was noticeable on profiles. Keep a permanent ref to the UTC and local timezones.
This removes the limitation of select() that only FDs with values lower
than FD_SETSIZE can be used. Previously, if the out/err pipe FDs had
high values (which could happen if a large process, like Firefox, was
spawning subprocesses while having a lot of FDs open), GLib would abort
due to an assertion failure in libc.

glibc declares memcpy() with the first two arguments (the pointers)
annotated as non-null via an attribute, which results in the undefined
behaviour sanitizer considering it to be UB to pass a null pointer
in the second argument, even if we are copying 0 bytes (and hence not
actually dereferencing the pointer).
This shows up in array-test when run with the undefined behaviour
sanitizer.

Note that I deliberately haven't used g_autoptr here, because while we
encourage GLib users to use g_autoptr in their own code, GLib itself
still supports being compiled in environments like MSVC that can't
support g_autoptr.

The user_data for g_ptr_array_sort_with_data is passed directly, not
with an extra layer of pointer like the data pointers.

This is like `GMutexLocker`, in that if you are able to use
`g_autoptr()`, it makes popping a `GMainContext` off the thread-default
main context stack easier when exiting a function.
A few uses of `G_GNUC_{BEGIN,END}_IGNORE_DEPRECATIONS` are needed to
avoid warnings when building apps against GLib with
`GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED < GLIB_VERSION_2_64`.

We may need to declare autocleanups for new types, which will be marked
as ‘deprecated’ if the code which includes GLib doesn’t declare a high
enough `GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED`. Despite that, we still need to
declare the autocleanups.

The token parsing done by g_variant_parse() uses recursive function
calls, so at some point it will hit the stack limit. As with previous
changes to `GVariantType` parsing (commit 7c4e6e9fbe), limit the level
of nesting of containers parsed by g_variant_parse() to something
reasonable. We guarantee 64 levels of nesting, which should be enough
for anyone, and is the same as what we guarantee for types.

This reverts commit 4aba03562b, preserving
the new tests but adjusting them to assert that the old behaviour is
restored.
As expected, there were a few projects which broke because of this.
Unfortunately, in one case the breakage crosses a project boundary:
sysprof ships D-Bus introspection XML, which is consumed by mutter and
passed through gdbus-codegen.
Since sysprof cannot add this annotation without breaking its existing
users, a warning is also not appropriate.

On closer reading of `man 3 timezone`, it’s actually permissible for
`TZ` to contain an absolute path which points to a tzfile file outside
the system time zone database. This is indeed what happens when building
GLib under Fedora’s toolbox, so relax that check in the tests.

There are a lot of Unix-like systems which have not implemented the
os-release spec. On such system, we can use POSIX uname function as a
fallback to get basic information of the system.
/etc/os-release is a spec designed for Linux. While other OSes can
implement it, it doesn't make sense to use Linux as the default value
on systems which don't use Linux.
Previously we were keeping a pointer to the `GFileMonitor` in a
`GFileMonitorSource` instance, but since we weren’t keeping a strong
reference, that `GFileMonitor` instance could be finalised from another
thread at any point while the source was referring to it. Not good.
Use a weak reference, and upgrade it to a strong reference whenever the
`GFileMonitorSource` is referring to the file monitor.

It’s not enough to unref the monitor, since the GLib worker thread might
still hold a reference to it.

`DesktopFileDir` pointers are passed around between threads: they are
initially created on the main thread, but a pointer to them is passed to
the GLib worker thread in the file monitor callback
(`desktop_file_dir_changed()`).
Accordingly, the `DesktopFileDir` objects either have to be
(1) immutable;
(2) reference counted; or
(3) synchronised between the two threads
to avoid one of them being used by one thread after being freed on
another. Option (1) changed with commit 99bc33b6 and is no longer an
option. Option (3) would mean blocking the main thread on the worker
thread, which would be hard to achieve and is against the point of
having a worker thread. So that leaves option (2), which is implemented
here.

Most of the info returned is static, the only thing that changes
is the OS version.
This code relies on g_win32_check_windows_version() providing
accurate information (hopefully, MS won't nix RtlGetVersion() on
which we use for that) and supplements it with information from the
registry for Windows >= 8.1.
When the _g_dbus_worker_flush_sync() schedules the 'data' and releases
the worker->write_lock, it is possible for the GDBus worker thread thread
to finish the D-Bus call and acquire the worker->write_lock before
the _g_dbus_worker_flush_sync() re-acquires it in the if (data != NULL) body.
When that happens, the ostream_flush_cb() increases the worker->write_num_messages_flushed
and then releases the worker->write_lock. The write lock is reacquired by
the _g_dbus_worker_flush_sync(), which sees that the while condition is satisfied,
thus it doesn't enter the loop body and immediately clears the data members and
frees the data structure itself. The ostream_flush_cb() is still ongoing, possibly
inside flush_data_list_complete(), where it accesses the FlushData, which can be
in any stage of being freed.
Instead, add an explicit boolean flag indicating when the flush is truly finished.
Closes#1896
