gdbus sets NO_REPLY_EXPECTED when no callback is given to

This reverts commit e5c752371c.
I think it is a recursion from the GUnixMountMonitor constructor, to a
GLocalFileMonitor on /etc/fstab, and into GUnixMountMonitor again, now
with a mutex already held, so it deadlocks.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/page.cgi?id=traceparser/trace.html&trace_id=235354
That mutex in glocalfile.c:g_local_file_find_enclosing_mount() doesn't
seem necessary any more IMHO. Inside it, only 'mount' is modified, but
that's just a stack variable local to this function. When
klass->get_mount_for_mount_path is called, it's given one const
parameter and the other is unused, so they're unchanged. 'klass'
doesn't seem it could be modified either inside that function.
It doesn't recurse infinitely, but seems to work correctly and pass the
testsuite after this change.
The FreeBSD project already applied my patch in their ports tree, and
their users seem happy with it.

As g_win32_get_command_line() calls CommandLineToArgvW() to acquire the
arguments passed into a GApplication program, it actually returns the
whole command line which is used to invoke the program, including the
script interpreter and its flags when a script using GNOME bindings
(e.g. PyGObject and so on) is being invoked.
The issue here is that g_application_run() would most probably have
trouble in the scripts scenario on Windows as it is likely unable to
"recognize" the script interpreter, causing such scripts to fail to run.
Largely based on the patch by Ray Donnelly <mingw.android@gmail.com>.

Otherwise, we'll acquire it on every loop iteration, which can leave us
vulnerable to racing another thread for the acquisition of the main
context.
This can break methods like g_main_context_invoke, which try to acquire
a context to figure out if it can invoke the method synchronously or
need to defer to an idle. In these cases, it isn't guaranteed that the
invocation function will be invoked in the default main context,
e.g. the one that GApplication is holding.
This also matches what GMainLoop is doing.

Recent changes to file monitors removed the delay before events were
reported. Among other things, this caused the trash backend of gvfs to
notice trashed files sooner than before.
On noticing trashed files, the backend tries to read the info file to
discover (among other things) the original location of the file.
Unfortunately, g_local_file_trash() does a strange dance when trashing a
file. It does a loop of open(O_EXCL) in order to file an empty filename
in the trash to write an info file to, trashes the file, and only then
writes the contents of the info file. This means that at the time the
file is moved to the trash, the info file is an empty stub.
Change the order so that we write out the actual content of the info
file first. If the actual trash files then we will unlink the info file
anyway.

If the certificate constructor is called as:

If an error in the underlying sendmmsg() syscall occurs after

it relaxes the error reporting (reporting errors in fewer situations

Previously, GLib returned text/plain for empty files.
This is important because people may want to open empty (eg:
just-created) text files with the text editor.
An unintended side-effect of b6fc1df022
caused GLib to start returning application/octet-stream instead of
text/plain for these files.
This commit is essentially a revert of that commit, with a different
solution: we move the special-case up a bit in the function and
hard-code it to text/plain.
This change does not exactly maintain the old behaviour: previously, a
"fast" lookup would have returned application/octet-stream on an empty
file and now it will return text/plain. I consider this to be an
improvement (since we're returning better data) and don't expect it to
cause problems.

We don't need to run binaries we just built in order to successfully
build GLib and friends any more.
Since commit b74e2a7, we don't need to run glib-genmarshal when building
GIO; since commit f9eb9eed, all our tests (including the ones that do
need to run binaries we just built) are only built when running "make
check", instead of unconditionally at every build.
This means that we don't need to check for existing, native binaries
when cross-compiling, and fail the configuration step if they are not
found — which also means that you don't need to natively build GLib for
your toolchain, in order to cross-compile GLib.
We can also use the cross-compilation conditional, and skip those tests
that require a binary we just built in order to build.

gvfs commit b358ca "Make sure metadata is always returned by
query_writable_namespaces()" changed the
query_writable_namespaces vfunc to never return NULL, but the error
checking in g_daemon_file_query_writable_namespaces still assumes vfunc
failure implies NULL return value and GError set. This causes a memory
leak as on failure the GError will be set but the vfunc implementation
will have created its own default list so NULL will not be returned, and
the GError will never be cleared.
This commit directly checks if the GError is set to detect failures,
my_error is directly dereferenced in the error block anyway.
This also removes an unneeded call to g_file_attribute_info_new(); as
the vfunc always returns us a non-NULL GFileAttributeInfoList.

These tests clear up a misunderstanding of mine: Monitoring
nonexisting files and directories *does* work with the inotify
implementation, it just has a very long timeout for scanning
for missing locations, so the test needs to take that into
account.
This is meant for opaque, non-POSIX-like backends to indicate that the
URI is not persistent. Applications should look at
G_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_STANDARD_SYMLINK_TARGET for the persistent URI.
Examples of such backends could be a portal for letting sandboxed
applications access the file-system, or a database-backed storage like
Google Drive.
In these cases, the user visible file and folder names are different
from the real identifiers, used by the backend. So, a request to
create google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/New\ File, would actually
lead to google-drive://user@gmail.com/foo/bar on the server even though
the user visible name is still "New File". Since the server-defined URI
is persistent and sanity-checked by the backend, it is recommended that
applications switch to it as soon as possible. Backends will try to
keep a mapping from "fake" to "real" URIs, but those are only on a
best effort basis. They might not be persistent or have the same
guarantees as the "real" URIs.

g_dbus_method_invocation_return_value(), etc, don't have GError
parameters (which makes sense since they won't usually return errors,
and there's not much you could do if they did), so in the rare case
when something does go wrong, they print a warning.
However, there is at least one situation where the warning is a bad
idea: if you are using private bus connections, and a client connects,
makes a request, and then disconnects before getting the response.
Given that there's nothing the caller can do to prevent this case from
getting hit (since the client might not disconnect until after the
call to g_dbus_method_invocation_return_value() starts) and given that
the server can never actually know for sure that the client has
received the response (it might disconnect after reading the response,
but before processing it), just kill the warning in this case.

Add a new test which checks that atomically replacing a file that
is being monitored by GFileMonitor produced the expected events.
The test can easily be expanded to cover other file monitoring
scenarios.
After the big file monitoring rewrite, we only put the IN_MOVED_FROM event
in the queue for such pairs. It matches INOTIFY_DIR_MASK and thus we call
ip_dispatch_event on it, but that function was filtering it out because
the filename in the 'from' event is the one of the temp file, not the
one we are monitoring. That name is in the 'to' event, so compare it as
well, and let the event passin that case.
There is another instance of this check in glocalfilemonitor.c, which is
corrected here as well.

exit-on-close for a DBus connection is a completely normal thing. On
a regular GNOME login, gdm retains the X server, but terminates the
session login bus and associated helpers like gnome-settings-dameon,
the a11y tools, etc.
I've seen several downstream reports of confusion as to what these
apparent error messages mean in the system log. It doesn't help
that they're so obtuse.
We're also printing them to stderr, when this is not an error.
The reason this was introduced is presumably some people were confused
as to why their process exited when the system bus did. But the
solution for that I believe is documentation, not printing stuff to
everyone's system log in normal operation.

A signal accumulator can return TRUE to continue signal emission, and
FALSE to stop signal emission. handle-local-options callbacks can return
« return a non-negative option if you have handled your options and
want to exit the process ».
Currently, g_application_handle_local_options_accumulator (the
accumulator for the handle-local-options signal) returns TRUE on
non-negative return value (ie continue signal emission), and returns
FALSE on negative return values (ie when the default option processing
should continue).
This return value seems backward as on >= 0 values, subsequent
handle-local-options callbacks could overwrite the 'exit request' from
the handler, while on < 0 values, the handle-local-options processing
could end up early if several callbacks are listening for this signal.
In particular, the default handler for this signal
(g_application_real_handle_local_options) always returns -1 and will
overwrite >= 0 return values from other handlers.
This commit inverts the check so that signal emission stops early when
one of the handle-local-options callbacks indicates it wants processing
to stop and the process to exit.

no longer an idle callback so it can be made void. The change
