We now need glib-2.76.0 or later, which removes our needs for the workarounds
that we need to build the media backends against GLib-2.74.x or earlier, so
clean up things a bit.
The current definitions of the g_io_module_*() symbols do not build on
Visual Studio when building against GLib earlier than 2.75.0 due to the
way how these symbols are decorated in the GLib headers, as Visual Studio
does not allow symbols that were previously marked with 'extern' (or so)
to be marked with anything that is symantically different later.
As a result, if we are using Visual Studio and glib-2.74.x or earlier,
override _GLIB_EXTERN as appropriate in the modules/media sources before
including the GIO headers. This sadly, means that we need a
configure-time check as it would have been too late if we checked the
GLib version using G_VERSION_CHECK macro, as the GIO headers would have
been included already.
There are similar items in the print backends, but we will not attempt
to update these files as they are not meant to be built for Windows.
This reverts commit acd9c12667.
This commit breaks the build with GLib main on all platforms,
and defining _GLIB_EXTERN arguably invades the GLib namespace.
A different fix for msvc will have to be found.
This seems to be a problem since:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/3565
To demo the problem, the video demo in gtk4-demo is currently set to
autoplay, but it doesn't autoplay on load as expected because the
"prepared" notification doesn't fire until the user explicitly presses
play.
Similarly if the demo is tweaked to disable autoplay then on loading a
video (or an audio-only ogg) the duration is not known or shown until
the user presses play.
In LibreOffice we want to know what the size of the video is to position
it before the user can interact with it to set it to play. We can
workaround this to some degree by listening to "invalidate-size" on the
GtkMediaStream object which updates for videos, but that doesn't wor
for audio-only streams.
So restore listening to media-info-updated but ignore -1 (which I see
for audio-only where I get -1 and then a useful value) and 0 of the
original report.

When loading .mp3 files the duration is initially unknown. Before this
change it was reported as a large integer (since GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE is
-1). Now it's correctly reported as 0.
Also rename gtk_media_stream_ended to
gtk_media_stream_set_ended, to avoid naming
collision with GtkMediaStream:ended.
The existing entry points still exist, deprecated
and marked as non-introspectable.
Update all internal uses.

Some bindings can't handle the coexistence of
GtkMediaStream:prepared and gtk_media_stream_prepared.
Help them out by renaming the function to
gtk_media_stream_set_prepared, and rename
gtk_media_stream_unprepared as well, to match.

Visual Studio does not allow decorating functions with '__declspec (dllexport)'
if a prototype exists and is not decorated with '__declspec (dllexport)' as
well, so we cannot just decorate g_io_module_[load|unload|query] in the various
module sources with G_MODULE_EXPORT because the prototypes of these functions
have been marked with _GLIB_EXTERN, which equates to 'extern' unless overridden
Fix this by overriding _GLIB_EXTERN with the appropriate visibility flag, as we
have used to define _GDK_EXTERN. Unfortunately, we can't just use _GDK_EXTERN
G_MODULE_EXPORT as they may have not been defined yet for our use
Do this across the board for all modules, even if they are not buildable on
Visual Studio nor Windows, for consistency's sake.
