5b48dc40cc GSubprocess: New class for spawning child processes
There are a number of nice things this class brings:

0) Has a race-free termination API on all platforms (on UNIX, calls to
   kill() and waitpid() are coordinated as not to cause problems).
1) Operates in terms of G{Input,Output}Stream, not file descriptors
2) Standard GIO-style async API for wait() with cancellation
3) Makes some simple cases easy, like synchronously spawning a
   process with an argument list
4) Makes hard cases possible, like asynchronously running a process
   with stdout/stderr merged, output directly to a file path

Much rewriting and code review from Ryan Lortie <desrt@desrt.ca>

aaddd823bc Removed obsolete makefile rules
Removed test, test-report, full-report, perf-report.  They all come from
an old (now obsolete) approach toward glib testing[1]. Now the blessed
ways to test glib are 'make check' and installed tests.

38dfce5992 Add simple string "search" function
Add a pair of functions to make it easier to do simple string matching.

This will be useful for use with things like GtkSearchBar and will also
be the basis of the searching done by the (soon to appear)
g_desktop_app_info_search()

c04a063b78 GAction: add function for printing detailed names
A counterpart for parsing of detailed actions into (name, target) pairs,
this new function prints them back.

We also add a new function to check for validity of action names.  Only
valid action names are allowed when printing.  Parsing accepts _some_
invalid names for backwards compatibility.

6dc5c118e4 Implement the Desktop Action specification
For some time, the desktop file specification has supported "additional
application actions".  This is intended to allow for additional methods
of starting an app, such as a mail client having a "Compose New Message"
action that brings up the compose window instead of the folder list.

This patch adds support for this with a relatively minimal API.

In the case that the application is a GApplication and DBusActivatable,
desktop actions are translated into GActions that have been added to the
application with g_action_map_add_action().  This more or less closes
the loop on being able to activate an application with an action
invocation (instead of 'activate').

54cc43630d Rename the generated private data getter function
As it turns out, we have examples of internal functions called
type_name_get_private() in the wild (especially among older libraries),
so we need to use a name for the per-instance private data getter
function that hopefully won't conflict with anything.

c7e965f4ee docs/: ignore gtester Makefile targets
Mark 'test', 'test-report', 'perf-report' and 'full-report' as PHONY in
docs/Makefile.am to prevent recursion of gtester into the documentation
subdirectories.  Stop including Makefile.decl from these directories
since it is no longer necessary.

This will clear up the warnings about EXTRA_DIST being defined once in
gtk-doc.make and again in Makefile.decl.

575a9da718 gtest: Add more path building API
Add a pair of functions for returning strings that don't need to be
freed.  This is a bit of a hack but it will turn the 99% case of using
these functions from:

  gchar *tmp;
  tmp = g_test_build_filename (...);
  fd = open (tmp, ...);
  g_free (tmp);

to:

  fd = open (g_test_get_filename (...), ...);

which is a pretty substantial win.

960f5500e2 gtestutils: add g_test_trap_subprocess()
g_test_trap_fork() doesn't work on Windows and is potentially flaky on
unix anyway given the fork-but-don't-exec. Replace it with
g_test_trap_subprocess(), which re-spawns the same program with
arguments telling it to run a specific (otherwise-ignored) test case.

Make the existing g_test_trap_fork() unit tests be unix-only (they
never passed on Windows anyway), and add a parallel set of
g_test_trap_subprocess() tests.

Also fix the logic of gtestutils's "-p" argument (which is used by the
subprocess tests); previously if you had tests "/foo/bar" and
"/foo/bar/baz", and ran the test program with "-p /foo/bar/baz", it
would run "/foo/bar" too. Fix that and add tests.

c18462b580 GParamSpec: add g_param_spec_get_default_value()
The way of getting the default value out of a GParamSpec is to allocate
a GValue, initialise it, then call g_param_spec_set_default() to set the
default value into that GValue.

This is exactly how we handle setting the default value for all of the
construct properties that were not explicitly passed to g_object_new().

Instead of doing the alloc/init/store on all construct properties on
every call to g_object_new(), we can cache those GValues in the private
data of the GParamSpec itself and reuse them.

This patch does not actually make that change to g_object_new() yet, but
it adds the API to GParamSpec so that a future patch to GObject can make
the change.

c30c0bb34d GType: add accessor for instance private offset
Since instance private data is now always at a constant offset to the
instance pointer, we can add an accessor for it that doesn't also
require an instance.

The idea is that classes can call this from their class_init and store
it in a file-scoped static variable and use that to find their private
data on instances very quickly, without a priv pointer.

9cc222c0bf Introduce GBytesIcon
GBytesIcon is an icon that has a GBytes inside of it where the GBytes
contains some sort of encoded image in a widely-recognised file format.
Ideally this will be a PNG.

It implements GLoadableIcon, so GTK will already understand how to use
it, but we will add another patch there to make things more efficient.

dbb65b5465 GVariant: add new g_variant_new_take_string() API
Lots of people have variously asked for APIs like
g_variant_new_string_printf() in order to avoid having to use
g_strdup_printf(), create a GVariant using g_variant_new_string(), then
free the temporary string.

Instead of supporting that, plus a million other potential cases,
introduce g_variant_new_take_string() as a compromise.

It's not possible to write:

 v = g_variant_new_take_string (g_strdup_printf (....));

to get the desired result and avoid the extra copies.  In addition, it
works with many other functions.
