On Wayland the activation token returned by
`g_app_launch_context_get_startup_notify_id()` doesn't depend on the
`GAppInfo`. The token is only used to hand over focus to the
application that is launched. In some cases it's not even possible to know
what application will actually be used to open the files. For example
when using portals within a sandbox. Therefore, allow providing no
`GAppInfo`.
This also makes clear in the docs that the `files` argument can be `NULL`.
We want to add the support for the activation token, to get it we use
`g_app_launch_context_get_startup_notify_id` which takes a list of
files, so that we don't have to create a GFile twice simply change the
signature of the functions. Fortunately this isn't a public API.
Previously, some of the doc comments for platform-independent APIs were
in `gdesktopappinfo.c`, which is only built on Unix systems. This meant
the introspection annotations for those APIs were not used on non-Unix
systems, which caused platform differences in `Gio-2.0.gir`.
So, move those doc comments to `gappinfo.c` and put them next to some
new platform-independent wrapper functions which provide a consistent
entry point and location for the API preconditions.

We can only use the [class@Foo.Bar] syntax for identifiers under
namespaces included by the current namespace. Naturally, we cannot
include the GDK namespace.
Use a direct link for this instead.
Adjust all docs to use the gi-docgen referencing syntax, reindent
some of the comments, and add missing annotations to some async
methods.
The error arguments are not necessary with gi-docgen so they're
removed.
Confusingly enough, the docks for GAppInfo is spread between two
files.
This creates `GioUnix`, `GioWin32`, `GLibUnix` and `GLibWin32`. These
bodies of documentation are in addition to the main, platform agnostic,
documentation for both libraries.
This commit necessarily includes various mechanical changes to update
the repository namespace used in various existing documentation links to
platform specific APIs.

Spawning a process correctly is a lot more complicated than just bunging
an argument onto the return value from this function.

...of the application if many URI's are provided. This is important to note
because the GAppLaunchContext signals may be emitted multiple times during
a single launch operation.
Despite the name, we still used blocking calls to get the default app
for URI, now that we have an async implementation of the API to get the
default implementation for URI scheme, we can remove the blocking calls.

Emit this when we're about to spawn or DBus activate a GAppInfo. This
allows lauchers to keep the appinfo associated with a startup id.
We use a GVariant to allow for future exansion of the supplied data.
When using g_desktop_app_info_launch_uris_as_manager the "launched"
signal allows to map a desktop-startup-id to a GAppInfo. Make this
possible for DBus activation too.
Since we don't have a PID there we pass a 0. Update the signal
description accordingly.
