These have all been documented as deprecated for a long time, but we’ve
never had a way to programmatically mark them as deprecated. Do that
now.
This is based on the list of deprecations from the reverted commit
80fcb1bc2.

Fixes: #638
The previously documented requirements for implementing init() and
init_async() as completely idempotent were really quite hard to achieve,
and brought a lot of pain for very little gain. Many implementations of
GInitable and GAsyncInitable did not actually follow the requirements,
or did not correctly handle concurrent init_async() calls.
Relax those requirements so that classes can decide whether their init()
or init_async() implementations need to be idempotent.

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.
Reimplement gioscheduler in terms of GTask, and deprecate the original
gioscheduler methods. Update docs to point people to GTask rather than
gioscheduler and GSimpleAsyncResult, but don't actually formally
deprecate GSimpleAsyncResult yet.

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.
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.)

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.)

If a class implements GAsyncInitable, and its parent also implements
it, then the subclass needs to call its parent's init_async() before
running its own. This was made more complicated by the fact that the
default init_finish() behavior was handled by the wrapper method
(which can't be used when making the super call) rather than the
default implementation itself. Fix that.

This is the ISO C sense of undefined behaviour, in which
works-by-coincidence, critical warning, abort, demons-fly-out-of-your-nose
are all valid implementations.

Move all the annotations over from gobject-introspection.
They will not be used directly by the introspection scanner for now,
instead they will be extracted by a script and updated manually
until introspection is properly integrated into the glib build
• "asynchronous" was misspelled as "asyncronous" in various places;
• punctuation was missing;
• g_async_initable_new_async() had a stray "and";
• references to g_async_initable_new_finish() were missing a "the".

This adds:
GInitable - failable object constructor interface
GAsyncInitable - async failable object constructor interface
GSocket - Platform independent lowlevel berkely socket style object
GSocketControlMessage - For passing control messages over GSocket
GUnixFDMessage - unix fd passing socket control message
Some changes were done during the import from gnio to make things
work in glib. For instance, types were moved to other headers, header
file boiler plate were updated to glib style and gio.symbols stuff
was added.
