This is nowhere near a complete check-through and gi-docgenification of
the signals docs, just a few bits I was looking at anyway.

We install gvariant-specification-1.0.html to `docs_dir` but that shouldn't require `enable_gir`.
Fixes: docs/reference/glib/meson.build:26:16: ERROR: Unknown variable "docs_dir"

gi-compile-repository --module and gi-decompile-typelib --shlib are
intentionally undocumented here: they will be removed in !3926.

The current output (more or less a straight copy of the wiki) is available
here:
https://gi.readthedocs.io
This contains two changes:
* Converts all (not completely outdated) wiki pages to a sphinx based
documentation.
* Converts the man pages to reST and adds a Makefile for building them
using rst2man. So they can be easily exposed in the sphinx docs.
Goals:
* Have a user focused/compact documentation instead of random wiki pages
with various todo/ideas pages.
* Take advantage of the gitlab MR workflow by
* allowing large documentation changes/refactorings with reviews
* allowing to combine features changes with documentation changes in MRs
The "--code" option was removed years ago in ac81f3e8c5f1c380d16677232d67466e739da283
so remove references to it from README and g-ir-compiler(1)
Remove the "--no-init" option from g-ir-compiler and g-ir-compiler(1)
as it was documented to "can only be used if --code is also specified",
so no reason to keep it around.

* Makefile.am:
* docs/g-ir-compiler.1:
* docs/g-ir-generate.1:
* docs/g-ir-scanner.1:
Add man pages for the generator and compiler.

This is a behaviour change from g-ir-generate, which treats it as
least-important-first (the last directory on the command-line is
searched first).
gi-compile-repository --includedir and gcc -I are most-important-first
(the first directory on the command-line is searched first) so it seems
like it makes most sense to be consistent with that.

So now introspection users will have to call `GLibUnix.open_pipe()`
rather than `GLibUnix.unix_open_pipe()` — or
`GLibWin32.check_windows_version()` rather than
`GLibWin32.win32_check_windows_version()`.

This should clarify things a little for users of language bindings, who
don’t directly use `.pc` files.

This creates `GioUnix`, `GioWin32`, `GLibUnix` and `GLibWin32`. These
bodies of documentation are in addition to the main, platform agnostic,
documentation for both libraries.
This commit necessarily includes various mechanical changes to update
the repository namespace used in various existing documentation links to
platform specific APIs.

Seems no point in keeping them separate. It doesn’t seem to matter if
they contain entries which are unused for a particular docs build.

`--version` is conventionally used to find the version of the program
itself. While that’s not currently implemented in
`gi-inspect-repository`, let’s not box ourselves into a corner.

Eventually, we want to move to using `GType` directly for everything,
since `GIBaseInfo` and its subclasses are all using `GTypeInstance`.
However, that requires quite a lot of changes and we’re about to hit the
API freeze.
So do the smallest set of changes possible to remove `GIInfoType` and
related functions from the public API, which gives us freedom to make
more changes later without breaking API.

It’s actually a factory method rather than a constructor, since
`GIBaseInfo` is abstract, but despite that, changing the name so it sits
inside the `GIBaseInfo` class makes sense. There is no `GIInfo` type.

Since `GITypelib` is exposed in the public libgirepository API, it needs
to be a boxed type. So we either need to add a `copy` method to mirror
the existing `free` method, or switch to refcounting. The latter option
seems better, since a `GITypelib` contains internal state about open
`GModule`s and the semantics for copying that would be potentially
complex.
