By default, when using g_subprocess_launcher_take_fd() to pass an
FD to a child, the GSubprocessLauncher object also takes ownership
of the FD in the parent, and closes it during finalize(). This is
a reasonable assumption in the majority of the cases, but sometimes
it isn't a good idea.
An example is when creating a GSubprocessLauncher in JavaScript:
here, the destruction process is managed by the Garbage Collector,
which means that those sockets will remain opened for some time
after all the references to the object has been droped. This means
that it could be not possible to detect when the child has closed
that same FD, because in order to make that work, both FDs
instances (the one in the parent and the one in the children) must
be closed. This can be a problem in, as an example, a process that
launches a child that communicates with Wayland using an specific
socket (like when using the new API MetaWaylandClient).
Of course, it isn't a valid solution to manually call close() in
the parent process just after the call to spawn(), because the FD
number could be reused in the time between it is manually closed,
and when the object is destroyed and closes again that FD. If that
happens, it will close an incorrect FD.
One solution could be to call run_dispose() from Javascript on the
GSubprocessLauncher object, to force freeing the resources.
Unfortunately, the current code frees them in the finalize()
method, not in dispose() (this is fixed in !1670 (merged) ) but it
isn't a very elegant solution.
This proposal adds a new method, g_subprocess_launcher_close(),
that allows to close the FDs passed to the child. To avoid problems,
after closing an FD with this method, no more spawns are allowed.

Expose a function that prepares an attribute query string to be passed
to g_file_query_info() to get a list of attributes normally copied with
the file. This function is used by the implementation of
g_file_copy_attributes, and it's useful if one needs to split
g_file_copy_attributes into two stages, for example, when nautilus does
a recursive move of a directory. When files are moved from the source
directory, its modification time changes. To preserve the mtime on the
destination directory, it has to be queried before moving files and set
after doing it, hence these two stages.

The previous parsing code could read off the end of a URI if it had an
incorrect %-escaped character in.
Fix that, and more closely implement parsing for the syntax defined in
RFC 6874, which is the amendment to RFC 3986 which specifies zone ID
syntax.
This requires reworking some network-address tests, which were
previously treating zone IDs incorrectly.

This doesn't trigger the cancellation assertion issue when run locally
(the task didn't return yet, so the error is simply overwritten), but
perhaps it ever does in CI. Anyhow, it's good to have a cancellation
test.
This currently just implements the same functionality as the existing
`stat()`/`fstat()`/`fstatat()`/`lstat()` calls, although where a reduced
field set is requested it may return faster.

It seems that allowing the GCancellable to be finalised in either the
main thread or the worker thread sometimes leads to crashes when running
on CI.
I cannot reproduce these crashes locally, and various analyses with
memcheck, drd and helgrind have failed to give any clues.
Fix this for this particular test case by deferring destruction of the
`GCancellable` instances until after the worker thread has joined.
That’s OK because this test is specifically checking a race between
`g_cancellable_cancel()` and disposal of a `GCancellableSource`.
The underlying bug remains unfixed, though, and I can only hope that we
eventually find a reliable way of reproducing it so it can be analysed
and fixed.

Some editors automatically remove trailing blank lines, or
automatically add a trailing newline to avoid having a trailing
non-blank line that is not terminated by a newline. To avoid unrelated
whitespace changes when users of such editors contribute to GLib,
let's pre-emptively normalize all files.
Unlike more intrusive whitespace normalization like removing trailing
whitespace from each line, this seems unlikely to cause significant
issues with cherry-picking changes to stable branches.

This ensures that we do really export the symbols for Visual
Studio-style builds, by using _GLIB_EXTERN to decorate the generated
prototypes and including config.h so that we are sure the symbols are
actually exported.
Sometimes this test was timing out due to the file monitor notifications
taking longer than the arbitrary 2s delay before ending the test and
checking its results at the end of `iclosed_cb()`.
Avoid that timing-dependence by ending the test when the expected file
monitor notifications are seen, or after a 10s timeout (if so, the test
is failed).
This makes the test run 4× faster in the normal case, as it’s no longer
waiting for a timeout to elapse if the file monitor notifications come
in sooner.

The test added for #1841 spawned 100000 threads. That was fine on a
desktop machine, but on a heavily loaded CI machine, it could result in
large (and unpredictable) slowdowns, resulting in the test taking over
120s in about 1 in 5 runs, and hence failing that CI pipeline due to a
timeout. When passing normally on CI, the test would take around 90s.
Here’s a histogram of time per iteration on a failing (timed out) test
run. Each iteration is one thread spawn:
Iteration duration (µs) | Frequency
------------------------+----------

There’s no actual need for the test to spawn 100000 threads, so rewrite
it to reuse a single thread, and pass new data to that thread.
Reverting the original commit (e4a690f5dd) reproduces the failure on
100 out of 100 test runs with this commit applied, so the test still
works.
The test now takes 3s, rather than 11s, to run on my computer, and has
passed when run with `meson test --repeat 1000 cancellable`.

Commit 721e385 left one remaining race in the filter test, with a
comment associated with it. Unfortunately, the (seemingly unrelated)
changes in #1841 to `GCancellable` seem to have made this remaining race
a lot more likely to fail on FreeBSD than before.
What’s likely to have happened (although I was unable to reproduce the
failure, due to not having a FreeBSD system; I was only able to
reproduce the problem as a 3/1000 failure on Linux, which is still worth
fixing) is that the atomic write of the `FilterData.serial` to be
expected by the filter function sometimes happened after the filter
function had executed, so the expected message was dropped and didn’t
result in an update to the `FilterData` state.
Rework the test so that instead of setting some expectations (on
`FilterData`) in one thread and then checking them in another thread,
the worker thread just unconditionally returns messages from the filter
function to the main thread, and then the main thread checks whether the
expected one has been filtered.
With this change applied, the `gdbus-connection` test passes 5000 times
in a row for me, on Linux; and doesn’t seem to fail any more on the
FreeBSD CI machines over a few runs. (Previously it failed on 4/5 runs.)

The GIO tests memory-monitor-dbus and memory-monitor-portal use a number
of third party Python modules that may not be present when running the
test case.
Instead of failing due to missing imports, catch the ImportError and
mock a test case that skips. This can't use the usual unittest.skip
logic because the test case class itself uses a 3rd party module.
Closes#2083.
There are two memory monitor tests that use Python's unittest module directly,
but GLib tests should be outputting TAP. Use the embedded TAPTestRunner to
ensure that TAP is output for these tests too.
D-Bus filter functions run in a worker thread. The `gdbus-connection`
test was sharing a `FilterData` struct between the main thread and the
filter function, which was occasionally (on the order of 0.01% of test
runs) causing spurious test failures due to racing on reads/writes of
`num_handled`.

There’s a minor race condition between cancellation of a `GCancellable`,
and disposal/finalisation of a `GCancellableSource` in another thread.
Thread A Thread B
g_cancellable_cancel(C)
→cancellable_source_cancelled(C, S)
g_source_unref(S)
cancellable_source_dispose(S)
→→g_source_ref(S)
→→# S is invalid at this point; crash
Thankfully, the `GCancellable` sets `cancelled_running` while it’s
emitting the `cancelled` signal, so if `cancellable_source_dispose()` is
called while that’s high, we know that the thread which is doing the
cancellation has already started (or is committed to starting) calling
`cancellable_source_cancelled()`.
Fix the race by resurrecting the `GCancellableSource` in
`cancellable_source_dispose()`, and signalling this using
`GCancellableSource.resurrected_during_cancellation`. Check for that
flag in `cancellable_source_cancelled()` and ignore cancellation if it’s
set.
The modifications to `resurrected_during_cancellation` and the
cancellable source’s refcount have to be done with `cancellable_mutex`
held so that they are seen atomically by each thread. This should not
affect performance too much, as it only happens during cancellation or
disposal of a `GCancellableSource`.

Clang warns about string+int not appending to the string (to try and
catch newbie mistakes). While this test didn’t expect that to happen, it
was substituting the same constant string in multiple places for no good
reason. Switch to a single static const string, which should also fix
the compiler warning.
We have to define the string length since it’s used in various
stack-allocated array lengths. This is the easiest fix without more
major refactoring of the test to be less 90s.
Also make things a bit more static.

When testing that signals are delivered to the correct thread, and are
delivered the correct number of times, call `EmitSignal()` on the
`gdbus-testserver` to trigger a signal emission, and listen for that.
Previously, the code listened for `NameOwnerChanged` and connected to
the bus again to trigger emission of that. The problem with that is that
other things happening on the bus (for example, an old
`gdbus-testserver` instance disconnecting) can cause `NameOwnerChanged`
signal emissions. Sometimes, the `gdbus-threading` test was failing the
`signal_count == 1` assertion due to receiving more than one
`NameOwnerChanged` emission.
