Rather than implementing GCancellableSource by polling on its fd,
implement it by just waking its GMainContext up from the "cancelled"
signal handler, thereby helping to reduce file descriptor usage.
Suggested by Ryan Lortie.

* GCancellable can be "cancelled" more than once if
g_cancellable_reset() is called.
* Don't assume that because the "cancelled" signal fired
it won't fire again.

g_async_initable_real_init_finish() was previously handling all
GSimpleAsyncResults, even if they weren't created by
g_async_initable_real_init_async(), and libnm-glib accidentally relied
on that behavior. So remove the g_simple_async_result_is_valid()
check.
On Windows, GetEnvironmentVariable() returns 0 for empty variables.
Checking GetLastError() == ERROR_ENVVAR_NOT_FOUND helps make a
difference between a variable that does not exist or an empty one
which should return "".

The current code create the strv array incorrectly, it is too big and
leaves invalid holes. This may result in crashes when freeing the
returned value.

Many (if not "almost all") programs that spawn other programs via
g_spawn_sync() or the like simply want to check whether or not the
child exited successfully, but doing so requires use of
platform-specific functionality and there's actually a fair amount of
boilerplate involved.
This new API will help drain a *lot* of mostly duplicated code in
GNOME, from gnome-session to gdm. And we can see that some bits even
inside GLib were doing it wrong; for example checking the exit status
on Unix, but ignoring it on Windows.

Rather than doing a two step first-check-the-GAsyncResult-subtype-then-
check-the-tag, add a GAsyncResult-level method so that you can do them
both at once, simplifying the code for "short-circuit" async return
values where the vmethod never gets called.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661767
Finish deprecating the "handle GSimpleAsyncResult errors in the
wrapper function" idiom (and protect against future GSimpleAsyncResult
deprecation warnings) by adding a "legacy" GAsyncResult method
to do it in those classes/methods where it had been traditionally
done.
(This applies only to wrapper methods; in cases where an _async
vmethod explicitly uses GSimpleAsyncResult, its corresponding _finish
vmethod still uses g_simple_async_result_propagate_error.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=667375https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661767
Originally, the standard idiom with GSimpleAsyncResult was to handle
all errors in the _finish wrapper function, so that vmethods only had
to deal with successful results. But this means that chaining up to a
parent _finish vmethod won't work correctly. Fix this by also checking
for errors in all the relevant vmethods. (We have to redundantly check
in both the vmethod and the wrapper to preserve compatibility.)

The "mainloop_barrier" in copy_async_thread() is unnecessary, since
the g_simple_async_result_complete_in_idle() will be queued after all
of the g_io_scheduler_job_send_to_mainloop_async()s, and sources with
the same priority will run in the order in which they were queued.

String validation was done by checking if the string was valid utf8 and
ensuring that the first non-utf8 character was the last character (ie:
the nul terminator).
No check was actually done to make sure that this byte actually
contained a nul, however, so it was possible that you could have a
string like "hello\xff" with length 6 that would correctly validate.
Fix that, and test it.
* Document how to override interfaces already implemented
in a base class, and also call those base class implementations
from a derived reimplementation.
* Don't recomend people use base_init() style functions to
initialize interface signals and properties, use default_init()
aka class_init() instead (as G_DEFINE_INTERFACE() uses).
* The above solves the interface init called multiple times
problem, so remove some needless naysaying about that.
* Document default_init() in the interface initialization discussion
* Linkify more stuff.
* Remove some crud and typos

The in commit b79fbc5c3f for fixing

Prevent attempts to access keys ending with slashes that exist in the
schema file as references to child schemas.
Also: don't emit change signals for these same keys.
If GLIB_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED or GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED was defined
to a future value, we were essentially treating it as
GLIB_VERSION_0_0. Fix to treat it as being in the future instead.

The docs for GString should really mention GByteArray, and what makes
it different. Drop the comparison to Java which is dated and actually
inaccurate (because StringBuffer operates on Unicode).
While we're here, add g_string_free_to_bytes(), which further
complements the spread of GBytes-based API. For example, one can
create a buffer using GString, then send it off via
g_output_stream_write_bytes().

For a D-Bus property with name "Type" (fairly common), we used to
generate a GObject property with name "type-" and C accessors
get_type_() (to avoid clashing with the GType getter), set_type_()
(for symmetri).
However, the rules for GObject property names are fairly rigid and
specifically prohibit names ending in a dash.
Therefore change things so the chosen GObject property name is "type"
but preserve the naming rules for the C getter and setter (for the
same reasons: avoiding name clashing and symmetri).
This change does break the API of generated code (but only on the
GObject property level, the C symbols are not changed) but strictly
speaking the behavior was undefined since "type-" was an invalid
GObject property name.
Also add a test case for this.
