If the action is stateful and the user doesn't have their own activate handler
then do some reasonable things for ourselves.
After a lot of experience using stateful GSimpleAction it turns out that
people almost always end up using it in the same ways:
A boolean-typed stateful action with no parameter is most likely going
to want to be toggled. Any other type of action that has the parameter
type equal to the state type probably intends for activation to
represent a request to change the state.
This patch implements those two cases. This will let people stop
writing their own trivial handlers over and over.

Add a note to the overview documentation for GOptionContext about why
you need to be careful about argv encoding on UNIX and about why you
should avoid argv entirely on Windows. Mention some possible
alternative approaches, including a code example.

Clarify in the documentation that the commandline arguments passed
around by GApplication (to local_command_line and returned via
g_application_command_line_get_arguments()) are in the GLib filename
encoding (ie: UTF-8) on Windows, not the system code page.
Fix the mismatch that would result from having argv passed to
g_application_run() in main() on Windows (where it is in the system
code page) by ignoring argc/argv on Windows and calling
g_win32_get_command_line() for ourselves. Document this.
This might be a slight API break on Windows: we documented that it was
possible to call g_application_run() with arguments other than argc/argv
and now doing that will result in those arguments being ignored. It has
always been recommended practice to only call g_application_run() from
main() directly, however, and all of our code examples have shown only
this. We will see if this causes any issues and consider reevaluating
the situation if so.

Add a note to the documentation for g_file_new_for_commandline_arg()
that this function is intended to operate on strings already in the GLib
filename encoding on Windows.
This has been the case for a long time, but this documents the
requirement.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722025
This returns the command line in GLib filename encoding format (ie:
UTF-8) for use with g_option_context_parse_strv().
This will allow parsing of Unicode commandline arguments on Windows,
even if the characters in those arguments fall outside of the range of
the system codepage.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722025
Add another difference to the freshly-added g_option_context_parse_strv:
now, on Windows, its arguments on to be in UTF-8 instead of the argv[]
encoding (from the system codepage).
The documentation teases g_win32_get_command_line() which is a new
GLib-filename-encoding-based function that will be added in a following
commit.

Use the new g_option_context_parse_strv() to patch up some leaks in some
insufficiently-argv-emulating testcases in option-context.c.
This gives some test coverage of the new function while also making
option-context now leak-free.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721947
Add g_option_context_parse_strv() that obeys the normal memory conventions for
dealing with a strv instead of assuming that we're dealing with the 'argv'
parameter to main().
This will help for using GOptionContext with GApplication.

The default local_command_line handler has a fast return path for the
case that we handle the commandline by forwarding it to the primary
instance, but this doesn't account for the fact that we may want to
become a service.
Allow for this by making sure we don't take the fast path of the service
flag is set.
Add a --gapplication-service switch to the default implementation of
local_command_line. This name is unlikely to clash with any option used
by an existing application.
When a normal application (neither service nor launcher) is launched with
exactly this one argument, G_APPLICATION_IS_SERVICE will be set.
The idea is that people will write their D-Bus service file with
--gapplication-service on the Exec line. This provides a nice
compromise for people who want the benefits of DBusActivatable
applications but without losing the ability to easily run them directly
(under the debugger or inside jhbuild, etc.)

Make sure we escape any special characters that are found in annotation
names or values to avoid emitting a malformed XML document in response
to an Introspect call.

The names of the month (and abbreviations) are specific to the Windows
system locale, so we need to use SetThreadLocale() to set the locale of
the running program to en-US so that it will parse "March" and "Sept" etc.
correctly.

There are many test programs that are shipped with GLib, and this project
is a one-to-one project, which does not make sense to keep as various test
programs may have different CFLAGS, etc, which will require different build
options.
The file extension of the GIO module could be something other than .so,
depending on platform. Use G_MODULE_SUFFIX so that the test will run
correctly on non-*nix platforms, such as Windows.

Windows will not allow one to write to a temp file opened by g_mkstemp()
by opening another fd associated with it before one closes the fd that
is returned by g_mkstemp(), which will cause the test_save test to fail.
Fix this by using a variable to store the fd from g_mkstemp() and checking
it, and call close() on that variable before attempting to call
g_key_file_save_to_file() on the temp file as that will attempt to open
another fd (which would not work) associated with that temp file.

If installed tests are not enabled, installed_testdir is not
defined, so we end up trying to create /modules and to chmod
things in /x-content/, which is not right.
When losing the D-Bus connection, we would write to stdout about it just
before killing ourselves with SIGTERM. We're a library, so we should
probably use stderr instead.

Part of the purpose of g_settings_get_child() was that it could be used
after you delay() a GSettings object, and then apply() all of the
settings together. In order for that to work, we need to share the
backend.
