Windows needs a special inefficient hack to implement
g_socket_get_available() correctly for UDP sockets, but that hack
isn't needed for TCP, and in fact, might give the wrong answer in that
case. Fix it to only use the hack with UDP.
Also, fix that case to handle non-blocking sockets as well.
And add a test case for g_socket_get_available() with TCP.

With UDP sockets, g_socket_bind() with allow_reuse=TRUE on Linux
behaved in a way that the documentation didn't suggest, and that
didn't match other OSes. (Specifically, it allowed binding multiple
multicast sockets to the same address.)
Since this behavior is useful, and since allow_reuse didn't have any
other meaning with UDP sockets, update the docs to reflect the Linux
behavior, and make it do the same thing on non-Linux.

The flowinfo and scope_id fields of struct sockaddr_in6 are in host
byte order, but the code previously assumed they were in network byte
order. Fix that.
This is an ABI-breaking change (since before you would have had to use
g_ntohl() and g_htonl() with them to get the correct values, and now
that would give the wrong values), but the previous behavior was
clearly wrong, and no one ever reported it, so it is likely that no
one was actually using it.

Some OS (e.g. OpenBSD) do not implement IP v4-mapped addresses. When
this is the case, then we get a "Connection refused", so force the test
to pass to that further tests can run.

Install a public "gnetworking.h" header that can be used to include
the relevant OS-dependent networking headers. This does not really
abstract away unix-vs-windows however; error codes, in particular,
are incompatible.
gnetworkingprivate.h now contains just a few internal URI-related
functions
Also add a g_networking_init() function to gnetworking.h, which can be
used to explicitly initialize OS-level networking, rather than having
that happen as a side-effect of registering GInetAddress.

Sometimes the poll duration in the /socket/timed_wait test is slightly
bigger than the requested 100000, causing failures like:
GLib-GIO:ERROR:socket.c:620:test_timed_wait:
assertion failed (poll_duration < 110000): (110057 < 110000)
Adjust the test to allow some jitter in the "too high" direction.

Very many testcases, some GLib tools (resource compiler, etc) and
GApplication were calling g_type_init().
Remove those uses, as they are no longer required.

Sometimes the poll duration in the /socket/timed_wait test is slightly lower
than the requested 100000, causing failures like
ERROR:/build/buildd/glib2.0-2.33.2/./gio/tests/socket.c:619:test_timed_wait:
assertion failed (poll_duration > = 100000): (99240 >= 100000)
FAIL
Adjust the test to also allow some jitter in the "too small" direction, similar
to the already existing span for "slightly too large".

struct sin6_addr has two additional fields that struct sin_addr
doesn't. Add support for those to GInetSocketAddress, and make sure
they don't get lost when converting between glib and native types.

And remove the 'joinable' argument from g_thread_new() and
g_thread_new_full().
Change the wording in the docs. Clarify expectations for
(deprecated) g_thread_create().
The docs for g_socket_set_timeout() claimed that if an async operation
timed out, the GIOCondition passed to the source callback would be
G_IO_IN or G_IO_OUT (thus prompting the caller to call
g_socket_receive/send and get a G_IO_ERROR_TIMED_OUT), but in fact it
ended up being 0, and gio/tests/socket.c was erroneously testing for
that instead of the correct value. Fix this.
Otherwise, attempting to create a GSocketConnection from the socket
will likely return the wrong type, since the protocol won't match any
of the registered subtypes.
Also add the start of a GSocket test program (from davidz).
