The Python version was added for the Meson build, but we might as well
use it from autotools too, since it does exactly the same thing as the
Perl version (modulo not including a trailing linebreak, but that
doesn’t matter).
Works fine with Python 2.7 or Python 3.

Disable gio tests on Windows, fix .gitignore to not ignore
config.h.meson, and add more things to it.
Rename the library file naming and versioning to match what Autotools
outputs, e.g., libglib-2.0.so.0.5000.2 on Linux, libglib-2.0-0.dll and
glib-2.0-0.dll on Windows with MSVC.
Several more tiny fixes, more executables built and installed, install
pkg-config and m4 files, fix building of gobject tests.
Changes to gdbus-codegen to support out-of-tree builds without
environment variables set (which you can't in Meson). We now add the
build directory to the Python module search path.
