Both `GPollableInputStream` and `GPollableOutputStream` are dynamic
interfaces, in that their implementation on a class may only be
functional if certain prerequisites are met at runtime. For example,
a `GConverterInputStream` is only pollable if its base stream is
pollable, and that’s determined at runtime rather than compile time.
As such, both interfaces have a `can_poll()` method. If that method
returns `FALSE`, the behaviour of all other methods on the interface is
undefined.
That was mentioned in the documentation for `can_poll()`, but not any of
the other documentation for the interfaces, which made it a bit hard to
find.
Mention it more widely.

Add SPDX license (but not copyright) headers to all files which follow a
certain pattern in their existing non-machine-readable header comment.

If the underlying transport is D/TLS the same data and data length
is required to be sent on the next iteration when a WOULD_BLOCK
happens. This is due to the fact that gnutls or openssl keep
an internal state for the data.

If we have an input parameter (or return value) we need to use (nullable).
However, if it is an (inout) or (out) parameter, (optional) is sufficient.
It looks like (nullable) could be used for everything according to the
Annotation documentation, but (optional) is more specific.
Make g_pollable_input_stream_read() and
g_pollable_output_stream_write() look a little bit more like the
non-pollable versions in terms of error handling, etc. Also, use the
read_fn and write_fn virtual methods directly rather than calling
g_input_stream_read()/g_output_stream_write(), to avoid problems with
re-entrancy involving the "pending" flag.
Also belatedly add single-include guards to the header files.

To help cross compilation, don't use glib-genmarshal in our
build. This is easy now that we have g_cclosure_marshal_generic().
In gobject/, add gmarshal.[ch] to git (making the existing entry
points stubs).
In gio/, simply switch to using g_cclosure_marshal_generic().

When interfacing with APIs that expect unix-style async I/O, it is
useful to be able to tell in advance whether a read/write is going to
block. This adds new interfaces GPollableInputStream and
GPollableOutputStream that can be implemented by a GInputStream or
GOutputStream to add _is_readable/_is_writable, _create_source, and
_read_nonblocking/_write_nonblocking methods.
Also, implement for GUnixInput/OutputStream and
GSocketInput/OutputStream
