This commit adds a test to ensure that during a signal emission, if
a signal handler gets disconnected, it won't be run, even if it would
have run before the disconnection.
Perform a substantial cleanup of the build system with respect to
building and installing testcases.
First, Makefile.decl has been renamed glib.mk and substantially
expanded. We intend to add more stuff here in the future, like canned
rules for mkenums, marshallers, resources, etc.
By default, tests are no longer compiled as part of 'make'. They will
be built when 'make check' is run. The old behaviour can be obtained
with --enable-always-build-tests.
--disable-modular-tests is gone (because tests are no longer built by
default). There is no longer any way to cause 'make check' to be a
no-op, but that's not very useful anyway.
A new glibtests.m4 file is introduced. Along with glib.mk, this
provides for consistent handling of --enable-installed-tests and
--enable-always-build-tests (mentioned above).
Port our various test-installing Makefiles to the new framework.
This patch substantially improves the situation in the toplevel tests/
directory. Things are now somewhat under control there. There were
some tests being built that weren't even being run and we run those now.
The long-running GObject performance tests in this directory have been
removed from 'make check' because they take too long.
As an experiment, 'make check' now runs the testcases on win32 builds,
by default. We can't run them under gtester (since it uses a pipe to
communicate with the subprocess) so just toss them in TESTS. Most of
them are passing on win32.
Things are not quite done here, but this patch is already a substantial
improvement. More to come.
After this patch, there is but one remaining use of g_thread_init(),
which is in tests/slice-threadinit.c, a testcase dedicated to testing
the functionality of gslice across a g_thread_init() boundary.
This testcase is pretty meaningless these days... probably we should
delete it.
testgobject.c and timeloop-closure.c are the only two tests in the
toplevel tests/ directory that depend on gobject, so move them to
tests/gobject/ along with the other gobject tests.
Both of these were in noinst_PROGRAMS and not TESTS, so keep them that
way when we move them.
We have some testcases that assert that type modules are unloaded after
the last reference on them is dropped. Comment out those asserts now
that we turned the last unref into a no-op.

Add a check to prevent adding an interface to a class that has already
had its class_init done.
This is an incompatible change but it is suspected that there are not
many users of this functionality. Two known exceptions are pygobject
(fixed in bug 686149) and our own testsuite (affected tests have been
temporarily disabled by this patch).
Once we confirm that nobody else is using this functionality we can
remove a rather large amount of code for dealing with this case.

Very many testcases, some GLib tools (resource compiler, etc) and
GApplication were calling g_type_init().
Remove those uses, as they are no longer required.

Either g_type_register_static_simple (used by G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED)
and G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE use automatic variables for GTypeInfo and
GInterfaceInfo structs, while tutorials and source code often use
static variables. This commit consistently adopts the former method.

The documentation for G_TYPE_CHAR says:
"The type designated by G_TYPE_CHAR is unconditionally an 8-bit signed
integer."
However the return value for g_value_get_char() was just "char" which
in C has an unspecified signedness; on e.g. x86 it's signed (which
matches the GType), but on e.g. PowerPC or ARM, it's not.
We can't break the old API, so we need to suck it up and add new API.
Port most internal users, but keep some tests of the old API too.

For some reason, even though the tests are linked against libgobject.la
and libgobject.la mentions libglib.la as a dependency, the tests are
running against the system glib instead of the in-tree one.
Adding the libglib.la file as an explicit LDFLAG fixes it.
These are basic performance test for a couple of basic gobject
primitives:
* construction of simple objects. Simple is a bare gobject derived
class with no properties, signals or interfaces.
* construction of complex objects. Complex is a gobject subclass
with construct properties, normal properties, signals, and
implements an interface.
* run-time type check of complex objects
* signal emissions
Lots of care is taken to try to make the results reproducible. Each
test is run for multible "rounds", where we try to make each round be
"not too short" in order to be significant wrt timer accuracy, but
also "not to long" to make the probability of some other random event
happening on the system (interrupts, other process scheduled, etc)
during the round less likely.
The current target round time is 4 msecs, which was picked without
rigour, but seems small wrt e.g. scheduler time.
For each test we then run the calculated round size for 60 seconds,
and then report the performance based on the minimal time of one
round. The model here is that any random stuff that happens during a
round can only slow it down, there is nothing that can make it go
faster, so the minimal time is the best estimate of how fast one round
goes.
The result is not ideal, even on a "idle" system the results vary
from round to round, but the variation seems to be less than 1%.
So, any performance difference reported by this test over 1% is
probably statistically significant.
Additionally the tests can be run with or without threads being
initialized. The script tests/gobject/run-performance.sh makes
it easy to produce a performance report for the current checkout.
