2c4a0c83e1 docs: Drop the regex-syntax page
Point people to the official PCRE documentation instead, which is going
to be more up to date. This saves us periodically having to copy in and
reformat the PCRE documentation.

59a4a239a1 docs: Remove the ‘changes to GLib’ page
We haven’t made any backwards-incompatible changes since GLib 2.2 in
2002. It’s probably not very useful to tell people about those any more.

e2efafb857 docs: Delete the generated gdbus-object-manager-example docs
They were previously `xi:include`d into some of the GDBus documentation,
but since the GDBus documentation was ported to Markdown that’s no
longer possible, so the object manager example docs now serve no
purpose.

6a6b36bbc7 gtestutils: Add g_test_trap_subprocess_with_envp() for testing envs
This is a variant of `g_test_trap_subprocess()` which allows the
environment for the child process to be specified. This is quite useful
when you want to test code which reads environment variables, as it’s
not safe to set those after the start of `main()`.

This will be useful within and outwith GLib for testing such code.

d0e03f0930 GType: introduce GTYPE_TO_POINTER/GPOINTER_TO_TYPE
On CHERI-enabled systems we use uintptr_t as the underlying storage for
GType and therefore casting to gsize strips the upper bits from a pointer.
Fix this by casting via uintptr_t instead and introduce a new set of
macros to convert between GType and pointers.

6107f50cc7 build: Disable gtk-doc unit tests
As we start moving documentation over from gtk-doc to gi-docgen, the
gtk-doc coverage is going to go down and things are going to start
breaking. That’s OK; we don’t need to test it any more.

39e9ef54be docs: Add initial support for using gi-docgen for docs
The files here are copied from the docs-gtk-org
branch of gtk.

This adds gi-docgen to the CI Dockerfiles and ensures the new versions
(including the OS upgrades from the previous commit) are used during CI.
