Philip Withnall 4314944e56 introspection: Drop Unix and Win32 prefixes from platform specific APIs

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()`.

Unix-specific Utilities

Most of GLib is intended to be portable; in contrast, this set of functions is designed for programs which explicitly target Unix, or are using it to build higher level abstractions which would be conditionally compiled if the platform matches G_OS_UNIX.

To use these functions, you must explicitly include the glib-unix.h header.

File Descriptors

[func@GLibUnix.open_pipe]
[func@GLibUnix.set_fd_nonblocking]

Pipes

The [struct@GLibUnix.Pipe] structure can be used to conveniently open and manipulate a Unix pipe.

The methods for it are all static inline for efficiency. They are:

g_unix_pipe_open()
g_unix_pipe_get()
g_unix_pipe_steal()
g_unix_pipe_close()
g_unix_pipe_clear()

Signals

[func@GLibUnix.signal_add]
[func@GLibUnix.signal_add_full]
[func@GLibUnix.signal_source_new]

Polling

[func@GLibUnix.fd_add]
[func@GLibUnix.fd_add_full]
[func@GLibUnix.fd_source_new]

User Database

[func@GLibUnix.get_passwd_entry]
