The result of calling update_property needs
to be that the property is marked as set
afterward, even if the value we pass happens
to match the default value.
After this change, scrollbars have value-now
show up as zero in the accessiblity page of
the inspector, even when that matches the lower
bound.
Test included.
Fixes: #5886
To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.
-- Alexander Pierce, "Captain America: The Winter Soldier"
ATK served us well for nearly 20 years, but the world has changed, and
GTK has changed with it. Now ATK is mostly a hindrance towards improving
the accessibility stack:
- it maps to a very specific implementation, AT-SPI, which is Linux and
Unix specific
- it requires implementing the same functionality in three different
layers of the stack: AT-SPI, ATK, and GTK
- only GTK uses it; every other Linux and Unix toolkit and application
talks to AT-SPI directly, including assistive technologies
Sadly, we cannot incrementally port GTK to a new accessibility stack;
since ATK insulates us entirely from the underlying implementation, we
cannot replace it piecemeal. Instead, we're going to remove everything
and then incrementally build on a clean slate:
- add an "accessible" interface, implemented by GTK objects directly,
which describe the accessible role and state changes for every UI
element
- add an "assistive technology context" to proxy a native accessibility
API, and assign it to every widget
- implement the AT context depending on the platform

The calls used old bugzilla URLs and nobody cared about that.
So apparently they are very unused.
There's also a potential conflict between gitlab and bugzilla URLs and
what base bug to use there.
The old usages have been converted to comments.
Remove checks for NULL before g_free() and g_clear_object().
Merge check for NULL, freeing of pointer and its setting
to NULL by g_clear_pointer().
