The old wiki page has a couple issues:
* It's out-of-date, not having any notes for GTK4 specifically,
and it doesn't link to `gvsbuild`, which (I believe) is
the current official (and best) way to build GTK with MSVC.
* It's "locked", so it's harder for contributors to update. This
is OK, except for one spicy detail:
* It's not clear how to contribute/report issues on the locked wiki
pages, so out-of-date information falls off the radar.
Regardless :) the gtk.org GTK for Windows docs are a much better
springboard, in my opinion.
gi-docgen is supposed to be ran natively on the build machine, without
native: true dependency() searches for gi-docgen on the host system.
When it doesn't find it, it falls back to a subproject even if gi-docgen
is available on the build machine.
also make gtk_doc require introspection
Doing clever things with objcopy is faster and seems to be reliable on
x86_64 Linux, but also doesn't work on all toolchains and architectures:
in particular, Debian has had trouble with this on arm and mips.
In a distro build environment where we are compiling all of GTK every
time, the cost of potentially unreliable builds is higher than the cost
of using slower but more conservative GResource embedding.

The X11 backend can mark modifiers like Shift as consumed even if they
aren't actually active, which seems to be something to do with making
shortcuts like `<Control><Shift>plus` and `<Control>plus` work as
intended regardless of whether the plus symbol is obtained by pressing
Shift and a key (like `+/=` on American, British or French keyboards)
or not (like `*/+` on German keyboards).
However, this can go badly wrong when the modifier is *not* pressed.
For example, terminals normally have separate bindings for `<Control>c`
(send SIGINT) and `<Control><Shift>c` (copy). If we disregard the
consumed modifiers completely, when the X11 backend marks Shift as
consumed, pressing Ctrl+c would send SIGINT *and* copy to the clipboard,
which is not what was intended.
By masking out the members of `consumed` that are not in `state`, we
get the same interpretation for X11 and Wayland, and ensure that
keyboard shortcuts that explicitly mention Shift can only be triggered
while holding Shift. It continues to be possible to trigger keyboard
shortcuts that do not explicitly mention Shift (such as `<Control>plus`)
while holding Shift, if the backend reports Shift as having been
consumed in order to generate the plus keysym.

The filetransfer protocol says to use
application/vnd.portal.filetransfer, but I used
application/vnd.portal.files when I implemented the
protocol. Oops.
This commit dds the correct mimetype, but we still
support the old one to preserve interoperatibility
with existing flatpaks using GTK 4.6.
Fixes: #5182
Some of the X keyboard layouts use compose
sequences of length one to make individual
keys generate multiple Unicode characters.
To support this use case, change the index
part of the table format to also include
an offset for length 1. Bump the table
version to indicate this change.
Fixes: #5172
For some of the a11y states, calling gtk_accessible_reset_state
can change the type of the state value from boolean or tristate
to undefined.
Handle that, instead of throwing criticals.
