Subject: [PATCH] gdk: Deprecate thread functions

This commit deprecates gdk_threads_init, gdk_threads_enter,
gdk_threads_leave and gdk_threads_set_lock_functions. Using GTK+
from multiple threads does not work at all on Windows, and is
problematic on other platforms as well. We want to move to a world
where all GTK+ calls are made from the main thread.
Use g_main_context_invoke, g_idle_add and related functions if you
need to schedule GTK+ calls from other threads.
