Do not name callback parameters "user_data"
Calling a callback parameter "user_data" implicitly adds the "closure" attribute in the documentation which is wrong for callbacks.

* GSpawnChildSetupFunc:

*
* Specifies the type of the setup function passed to g_spawn_async(),
* g_spawn_sync() and g_spawn_async_with_pipes(), which can, in very
* limited ways, be used to affect the child's execution.
*
* On POSIX platforms, the function is called in the child after GLib
* has performed all the setup it plans to perform, but before calling
* exec(). Actions taken in this function will only affect the child,
* not the parent.
*
* On Windows, the function is called in the parent. Its usefulness on
* Windows is thus questionable. In many cases executing the child setup
* function in the parent can have ill effects, and you should be very
* careful when porting software to Windows that uses child setup
* functions.
*
* However, even on POSIX, you are extremely limited in what you can
* safely do from a #GSpawnChildSetupFunc, because any mutexes that were
* held by other threads in the parent process at the time of the fork()
* will still be locked in the child process, and they will never be
* unlocked (since the threads that held them don't exist in the child).
* POSIX allows only async-signal-safe functions (see signal(7)) to be
* called in the child between fork() and exec(), which drastically limits
* the usefulness of child setup functions.
*
* In particular, it is not safe to call any function which may
* call malloc(), which includes POSIX functions such as setenv().
* If you need to set up the child environment differently from
* the parent, you should use g_get_environ(), g_environ_setenv(),
* and g_environ_unsetenv(), and then pass the complete environment
* list to the `g_spawn...` function.
