We don't use this for anything inside of GApplication yet, but Gtk is
about to start using it to find various bits of the application (such as
its menus, icons, etc.).
By default, we form the base path from the application ID to end up with
the familiar /org/example/app style.

Used for the commonly used case (in signal emission) where we
initialize and set a GValue for an instance
Includes a fast-path for GObject
Overall makes it 6 times faster than the previous combination
of g_value_init + g_value_set_instance
Makes signal emission around 10% faster

- GSubprocessLauncher exists since 2.40, not 2.36
- more logical order for g_markup functions
- fix short description of GMarkup
- GMarkupParser: specify that some parameters are NULL-terminated.
- g_string_new (NULL); is possible.
- other trivial fixes.

On initialisation, GObject guarantees to zero-fill
class/object/interface structures. Document this so people don’t spend
forever writing:
my_object->priv->some_member = NULL;
my_object->priv->some_other_member = NULL;

Add a new function, g_str_to_ascii() that does locale-dependent ASCII
transliteration of UTF-8 strings.
This function works off of an internal database. We get the data out of
the localedata shipped with glibc, which seems to be just about the best
source of locale-sensitive transliteration information available
anywhere.
We include a update script with this commit that's not used by anything
at all -- it will just sit in git. It is intended to be run manually
from time to time.

In addition to the standard "192.168.1.1" format, there are numerous
legacy IPv4 address formats (such as "192.168.257",
"0xc0.0xa8.0x01.0x01", "0300.0250.0001.0001", "3232235777", and
"0xc0a80101"). However, none of these forms are ever used any more
except in phishing attempts. GLib wasn't supposed to be accepting
these addresses (neither g_hostname_is_ip_address() nor
g_inet_address_new_from_string() recognizes them), but getaddrinfo()
accepts them, and so the parts of gio that use getaddrinfo()
accidentally did accept those formats.
Fix GNetworkAddress and GResolver to reject these address formats.

Since all element markup is now gone from the doc comments,
we can turn off the gtk-doc sgml mode, which means that from
now on, docbook markup is no longer allowed in doc comments.
To make this possible, we have to replace all remaining
entities in doc comments by their replacement text, & -> &
and so on.
Add support for parsing command line options with GApplication.
You can add GOptionGroup and GOptionEntry using two new APIs:
g_application_add_option_group() and
g_application_add_main_option_entries().
Also add a "handle-local-options" signal that allows handling of
commandline arguments in the local process without having to override
local_command_line.
As a special feature, you can have a %NULL @arg_data in a GOptionEntry
which will cause the argument to be stored in a GVariantDict. This
dictionary is available for inspection and modification by the
"handle-local-options" signal and can be forwarded to the primary
instance in cases of command line invocation (where it can be fetched
using g_application_command_line_get_options()).

Slightly expand on the documentation about casting varargs when
constructing GVariants, and link to it from all the functions where it’s
a necessary consideration.
Add an example of passing flags to a ‘t’ type variable (guint64).
Assuming the flags enum does not have many members, the flag variable
will be 32 bits wide, and needs an explicit cast to be passed into
g_variant_new() as a 64-bit value.

This returns the command line in GLib filename encoding format (ie:
UTF-8) for use with g_option_context_parse_strv().
This will allow parsing of Unicode commandline arguments on Windows,
even if the characters in those arguments fall outside of the range of
the system codepage.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722025
Add g_option_context_parse_strv() that obeys the normal memory conventions for
dealing with a strv instead of assuming that we're dealing with the 'argv'
parameter to main().
This will help for using GOptionContext with GApplication.

This was a feature intended from the very beginning that somehow never
got written. It's a way to replace these sort of error messages out of
the GVariant parser:
1-2,10-15:unable to find a common type
with something in the style of the Vala compiler:
unable to find a common type:
[1, 2, 3, 'str']
^ ^^^^^

Most GErrors, such as GSomethingError, have a function to get
their quark that looks like g_something_error_quark(),
so bindings (such as gtkmm) would expect GVariantParseError
to have g_variant_parse_error_quark(). Instead this had
g_variant_parser_get_error_quark().
This deprecates the old function and adds the correct one,
making life easier for gtkmm (and maybe others).

This is really just a very crude and limited conditional breakpoint.
Update the documentation to explain conditional breakpoints in
gdb instead. Also, remove the link to refdbg, which appears dead.

g_test_set_nonfatal_assertions() was a no-op, because
g_assertion_message() wasn't actually checking the
test_nonfatal_assertions flag. Fix that and add a test.
Also, g_test_set_nonfatal_assertions() has to set test_mode_fatal to
FALSE as well, or else a failed assertion will cause the test program
to abort at the end of the failed test.
Also, belatedly add this and the new g_assert_* methods to the docs.
