`DesktopFileDir` pointers are passed around between threads: they are
initially created on the main thread, but a pointer to them is passed to
the GLib worker thread in the file monitor callback
(`desktop_file_dir_changed()`).
Accordingly, the `DesktopFileDir` objects either have to be
(1) immutable;
(2) reference counted; or
(3) synchronised between the two threads
to avoid one of them being used by one thread after being freed on
another. Option (1) changed with commit 99bc33b6 and is no longer an
option. Option (3) would mean blocking the main thread on the worker
thread, which would be hard to achieve and is against the point of
having a worker thread. So that leaves option (2), which is implemented
here.

Fixes: #1903
When the _g_dbus_worker_flush_sync() schedules the 'data' and releases
the worker->write_lock, it is possible for the GDBus worker thread thread
to finish the D-Bus call and acquire the worker->write_lock before
the _g_dbus_worker_flush_sync() re-acquires it in the if (data != NULL) body.
When that happens, the ostream_flush_cb() increases the worker->write_num_messages_flushed
and then releases the worker->write_lock. The write lock is reacquired by
the _g_dbus_worker_flush_sync(), which sees that the while condition is satisfied,
thus it doesn't enter the loop body and immediately clears the data members and
frees the data structure itself. The ostream_flush_cb() is still ongoing, possibly
inside flush_data_list_complete(), where it accesses the FlushData, which can be
in any stage of being freed.
Instead, add an explicit boolean flag indicating when the flush is truly finished.

If a copy operation is started with `G_FILE_COPY_TARGET_DEFAULT_PERMS`,
don’t create the destination file as private. Instead, create it with
the process’ current umask (i.e. ‘default permissions’).
This is a partial re-work of commit d8f8f4d637ce43f8699ba94c9b, with

Fixes: #174
If we're cross-compiling, the installed-tests are useful even if we
can't run them on the build machine: we can copy them to the host
machine (possibly via a distro package like Debian's libglib2.0-tests)
and run them there.
While I'm changing the build-tests condition anyway, deduplicate it.
Based on a patch by Helmut Grohne.

(cherry picked from commit 42d8e17795254ed1590241347b34d19479b9b575)
g_date_time_add_seconds() and g_date_time_add_full() use floating-point
seconds, which can result in the value varying slightly from what's
actually on disk. This causes intermittent test failures in
gio/tests/g-file-info.c on Debian i386, where we set a file's mtime
to be 50µs later, then read it back and sometimes find that it is only
49µs later than the previous value.
I've only seen this happen on i386, which means it might be to do with
different floating-point rounding when a value is stored in the 80-bit
legacy floating point registers rather than in double precision.
g_date_time_add() takes a GTimeSpan, which is in microseconds;
conveniently, that's exactly what we get from the GFileInfo.

When future porting deprecated code to use
g_file_info_get_modification_date_time() we risk a number of breakages
because the current implementation also requires the additional use of
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TIME_MODIFIED_USEC. This handles that situation gracefully
and returns a GDateTime with less precision.
Applications that want the additional precision, are already using the
additional attribute.

Instead of letting each directory to find its way to link with libdl,
it is easier to put the check in the top level, so its result can be
used by all directories.
It is a follow-up of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/merge_requests/810.
The header file was installed when building using autotools, but was
inadvertently omitted in the meson targets.
Luckily, ABI is not impacted, since gnativesocketaddress.c was always
compiled and linked into libgio.

The gobject introspection comments have a reference to an incorrect
class: they have, as 'self', the GSubprocess class instead of
GSubprocessLauncher.
This patch fixes this.
g_settings_backend_watch() uses a weak notify for keeping track of
the target. There's an explanation why this is supposed to be safe but
that explanation is wrong.
The following could happen before:
1. We have the target stored in the watch list
2. The last reference to the target is dropped in thread A and we end up
in g_settings_backend_watch_weak_notify() right before the mutex
3. g_settings_backend_dispatch_signal() is called from another thread B
and gets the mutex before 2.
4. g_weak_ref_init() is called on the target from thread B, which at
this point has a reference count of exactly one (see g_object_unref()
where it calls the weak notifies)
5. Thread A continues at 3. and drops the last reference and destroys
the object. Now the GWeakRef from 4. points to a destroyed object. Note
that GWeakRefs would be cleared before the weak notifies are called
6. At some later point another thread g_weak_ref_get() is called by
g_settings_backend_invoke_closure() and accesses an already destroyed
object with refcount 0 from the GWeakRef created in 4. by thread B (or
worse, already freed memory that was reused).
Solve this by actually storing a GWeakRef of the target in the watch
list and only access the target behind it via the GWeakRef API, and then
pass a strong reference to the notification dispatch code.
The weak notify is only used to remove the (potentially with empty
GWeakRef) target from the list of watches and the only place that
compares the target by pointer instead of going through the GWeakRef
API.

This fixes use of `GIO_USE_VOLUME_MONITOR=help`, and simplifies the
code. The reason this wasn’t used already seems to just be because it
was missed when `_g_io_module_get_default_type()` was introduced in
2013. The previous `get_default_native_class()` code in
`gunionvolumemonitor.c` was introduced in 2007.

This fix build error for projects that use gnome.compile_resources()
when glib is built as a subproject and not installed on the build
machine.
Note that this is not working for cross compilation cases, because it
would require to compile everything twice (for host and build machines).
A better solution would be to rewrite those tools in python. See #1859.
