This is a variant of g_file_get_path() which returns a const string to the caller, rather than transferring ownership. I've been carrying `gs_file_get_path_cached()` in libgsystem and it has seen a lot of use in the ostree and flatpak codebases. There are probably others too. I think language bindings like Python/Gjs could also use this to avoid an extra malloc (i.e. we could transparently replace `g_file_get_path()` with `g_file_peek_path()`. (Originally by Colin Walters. Tweaked by Philip Withnall to update to 2.56, change the function name and drop the locking.) https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767976
