GTK lost it's '+' suffix back in 2019, according to

Most of the changes are in comments and documentation.
Instead of a plain reference count check failure that is really hard to
understand, let's be explicit, and warn that manipulating an object's
notification queue during its finalization is not allowed.
When an object is revitalized and a notify callbacks increased the reference
counter of the object, we are calling the toggle notifier twice, while it
should only happen if also the actual reference count value is 1 (after
having been decremented from 2).
If an object gets revitalized during the dispose vfunc, we need to call
toggle refs notifiers only if we had 2 references and if the object has
the toggle references enabled.
This may change in case an object notifier handler changes this status,
so do this check only after we've called the notifiers so that in case
toggle notifications are enabled afterwards we still call the handlers.
We were reading if an object has toggle references even if this was not
really relevant for the current object state, as we only need to notify
when going from 2 to 1 references, so first ensure that this is the case
and then check if we have toggle references enabled in the object.
This is a micro-optimization, for the way flags are defined, but still
an operation we can avoid in most cases.
Even though the check is likely to be relevant if the object is finalized,
it may still give some indication if called while an instance has just lost
the last reference.
So use `g_return_if_fail` for consistency with the rest of the code.
In case g_atomic_int_compare_and_exchange() check fails we ended up doing
another atomic get to figure out what it was the old reference count,
however, we can avoid this by using the full version of the function that
returns the value before the exchange happened as an out value.
If a deprecated property only gets set because it is G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT
or G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY, then there is nothing for the library user
to fix, and we should not emit a deprecation warning.

All of these warnings indicate programmer error, so critical is most
appropriate here.
Exceptions: deprecation warnings are just warnings. Also, warnings that
are worded with uncertainty can remain warnings rather than criticals.
When I optimized GObject to skip property notification
in some cases, I looked for whether the class has a
custom notify vfunc. I overlooked that that
dispatch_properties_changed can also be customized,
and if it is, we better not skip change notification.
This showed up as breakage in the adjustment tests
in the GTK testsuite.
When weak references are being cleaned up, it is possible for the `qdata` for
both `quark_weak_locations` and `quark_weak_refs` to have been deallocated,
so that `g_datalist_id_get_data()` returns `NULL` for both. This happens
when `g_object_run_dispose()` is called for the target of a `GBinding`,
and is not an error.
See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2676
This makes calls to g_signal_connect_data() and g_signal_connect_object()
with default flags more self-documenting.

This is a partial revert of commit fa8c7c0da using the approach
suggested (and tested) by Kjell Ahlstedt.
It is intended to be temporary pending a proper dig into what’s causing
the regression, just so we can get the 2.73.1 release out.

Helps: #2672
Coverity notices the `g_object_unref()` call in `g_object_notify()`, but
not the paired `g_object_ref()` call. It therefore incorrectly assumes
that every call to `g_object_notify()` frees the object. This causes a
lot (hundreds) of false positive reports about double-frees or
use-after-frees.
I can’t find a way to fix this using a model file, so the other options
are:
* Manually mark every report as a false positive and keep updating them
as the code changes over time. This would take a lot of maintainer
effort.
* Comment out the `g_object_ref()`/`g_object_unref()` calls when
running static analysis (but not in a normal production build). This
is ugly, but cheap and shouldn’t impact maintainability much.
So this commit implements option 2.

This prevents `-Wunused-function` warnings on platforms which don’t have
`HAVE_OPTIONAL_FLAGS` defined.

g_object_new_with_custom_constructor needs to handle
freezing notifications in the same way as
g_object_new_internal.
Fixing a bug pointed out by Christian Hergert.
The corner-case we are handling here is that
we don't freeze the notify queue in g_object_init
(because there's no custom ->notify vfunc, but
then we gain a notify handler during instance
init, and instance init also triggers a
notification. Handle this by jit freezing
notification in g_object_notify_by_spec_internal.
Note that this is bad code - instance init really
shouldn't be doing things like this.
Testcase included.
Fixes: #2665
We need to match the conditions in g_object_init
for when we already have a freeze. Without that,
we underflow the freeze count and trigger a
warning.
Fixes: #2666
When the param specs are provided as an array
with g_object_class_install_properties, keep
a copy of that array around and use it for
looking up properties without the param spec
pool.
Note that this is an opportunistic optimization -
currently, it only works for properties of the
class itself, not for parent classes, and it
only works if the property names are identical
string literals (we're at the mercy of the linker
for that).
If we don't get lucky, we fall back to using
the pspec pool as usual.
This may fix Coverity assuming that pspecs are leaked, which is causing
tens and tens of false positives in the latest Coverity reports for
GLib.
Ensure that the pspecs are sunk (if floating) even if adding them to the
class fails (due to validation failure or an identically named property
already existing).

If we have no nontrivial notify vfunc, and no signal
handlers for notify, we don't need to maintain the
notify queue. No need to notify if nobody's listening.
Check whether an object has a nontrivial notify vfunc
and avoid creating and updating the notify queue if
it doesn't. We know that there can be no notify signal
handlers at this point. No need to notify if nobody's
listening.
We currently keep a flag for whether an object has
ever had any signal handlers. But even if it had signal
handlers, it may not have any notify handlers. Keep that
information separately, so we can speed up property setting.
According to the commit that introduced these
calls (4b334ef8f1), we are checking
the refcount here to avoid calling g_object_ref
when the refcount is 0, in the rare case that
notification would be triggered during finalize.
But we are now freezing notifications during
finalize, and after recent changes, we no longer call
g_object_ref for notification while a freeze is
in place.
We only need to take a ref on the object when
we call out to external code (ie around
->dispatch_properties_changed). If we avoid
the signal emission, we can avoid the ref/unref
too. This is not currently happening, but
might in the future.
