g_settings_backend_watch() uses a weak notify for keeping track of
the target. There's an explanation why this is supposed to be safe but
that explanation is wrong.
The following could happen before:
1. We have the target stored in the watch list
2. The last reference to the target is dropped in thread A and we end up
in g_settings_backend_watch_weak_notify() right before the mutex
3. g_settings_backend_dispatch_signal() is called from another thread B
and gets the mutex before 2.
4. g_weak_ref_init() is called on the target from thread B, which at
this point has a reference count of exactly one (see g_object_unref()
where it calls the weak notifies)
5. Thread A continues at 3. and drops the last reference and destroys
the object. Now the GWeakRef from 4. points to a destroyed object. Note
that GWeakRefs would be cleared before the weak notifies are called
6. At some later point another thread g_weak_ref_get() is called by
g_settings_backend_invoke_closure() and accesses an already destroyed
object with refcount 0 from the GWeakRef created in 4. by thread B (or
worse, already freed memory that was reused).
Solve this by actually storing a GWeakRef of the target in the watch
list and only access the target behind it via the GWeakRef API, and then
pass a strong reference to the notification dispatch code.
The weak notify is only used to remove the (potentially with empty
GWeakRef) target from the list of watches and the only place that
compares the target by pointer instead of going through the GWeakRef
API.

If we fail to create a GWinhttpFile for a URI (for example, because it’s
an invalid URI or is badly encoded), don’t just return NULL. Instead,
fall back to the wrapped VFS which might be able to handle it instead.

It can return NULL if the URI was badly encoded or couldn’t be handled
by Windows’ API.

It cannot return a NULL value, as none of its callers have error
handlng. Add an assertion to check the values returned by the VFS
implementations.

However, it's fine to call it when building for the debug target
(which uses the debug CRT and hence sets -D_DEBUG), so let's keep that
around.
The Windows App Certification Kit only runs on apps built in release
mode.
Also set the Windows version to be 10 or newer when targeting UWP, since
the Windows 8 SDK does not have many of the APIs we need, such as
_beginthreadex.
These macros wrap functions which were only introduced in certain
versions of GLib. The functions are correctly marked as introduced in
those versions, but the macros aren’t, which can result in not getting
appropriate deprecation warnings if you’re using those APIs when you
have said you’re targeting older GLib versions using
`GLIB_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED`.

We require a newer SDK version now, so this is not needed.
Specifically, we set _WIN32_WINNT to 0x0601, which sets our SDK
requirement to Windows 7+, and this code is only needed for MSVC 5.0,
which is ancient.
It’s confusing and often doesn’t help the user. Match the error code and
come up with a more UI-appropriate error message.

This fixes use of `GIO_USE_VOLUME_MONITOR=help`, and simplifies the
code. The reason this wasn’t used already seems to just be because it
was missed when `_g_io_module_get_default_type()` was introduced in
2013. The previous `get_default_native_class()` code in
`gunionvolumemonitor.c` was introduced in 2007.

If the dup(stderr) returns '-1' (an error occured), then the program
shouldn't call a 'close(stderr); dup(old_err);' after the exec() failed.

Various memory allocations are still reachable when a process exits, as
they contain type system information which can’t be unloaded. Suppress

A static analysis run noted that we weren't freeing the cmdline in the
error path here. We can just make this an assertion instead; I just
checked the kernel code, and it just usees a seq_printf() here which
will NUL terminate.
This fixes the following warning, by making the compiler checks for the
`pop` match those for the `push`:
