This property was only used until now when
there was neither an icon nor a label set,
for arrow direction and popover placement.
Starting with Gtk4, a GtkMenuButton with a
label shows an arrow at the right (in LTR)
of the label. Allow disabling the arrow or
changing its direction using the direction
property, to have a way to restore a Gtk3-
like look or to improve popover placement.
Fixes#2811.
To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.

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

After the :can-focus change in the previous commit, widgets
need to set suitable focus and grab_focus implementations
to implement the desired focus behavior.
This commit does that for all widgets.
It is enough to just set the parent (and make the parent
call gtk_native_check_resize in size_allocate).
This commit removes the relative_to argument to the
constructors of GtkPopover and GtkPopoverMenu, and
updates all callers.
Widgets are supposed to call gtk_widget_child_focus.
Calling internal focus_move function directly makes
us skip the childs ::focus() implementation, which
is where the magic happens.
Make gtk_popover_new_from_model() return a GtkPopoverMenu,
rename it to gtk_popover_menu_new_from_model() and add
a relative_to argument to gtk_popover_menu_new().
Update all callers.
Make GtkMenuButton a widget that has a
toggle button, instead of deriving from it.
We give it icon-name and label properties,
to let people do what they expect to do
with menu buttons.
Otherwise, if the Popover is destroyed before the MenuButton, the latter
still had a non-NULL but invalid instance and tried to use it in dispose

This renames the GdkWindow class and related classes (impl, backend
subclasses) to surface. Additionally it renames related types:
GdkWindowAttr, GdkWindowPaint, GdkWindowWindowClass, GdkWindowType,
GdkWindowTypeHint, GdkWindowHints, GdkWindowState, GdkWindowEdge
This is an automatic conversion using the below commands:
git sed -f g GdkWindowWindowClass GdkSurfaceSurfaceClass
git sed -f g GdkWindow GdkSurface
git sed -f g "gdk_window\([ _\(\),;]\|$\)" "gdk_surface\1" # Avoid hitting gdk_windowing
git sed -f g "GDK_WINDOW\([ _\(]\|$\)" "GDK_SURFACE\1" # Avoid hitting GDK_WINDOWING
git sed "GDK_\([A-Z]*\)IS_WINDOW\([_ (]\|$\)" "GDK_\1IS_SURFACE\2"
git sed GDK_TYPE_WINDOW GDK_TYPE_SURFACE
git sed -f g GdkPointerWindowInfo GdkPointerSurfaceInfo
git sed -f g "BROADWAY_WINDOW" "BROADWAY_SURFACE"
git sed -f g "broadway_window" "broadway_surface"
git sed -f g "BroadwayWindow" "BroadwaySurface"
git sed -f g "WAYLAND_WINDOW" "WAYLAND_SURFACE"
git sed -f g "wayland_window" "wayland_surface"
git sed -f g "WaylandWindow" "WaylandSurface"

Remove all the old 2.x and 3.x version annotations.
GTK+ 4 is a new start, and from the perspective of a
GTK+ 4 developer all these APIs have been around since
the beginning.
Instead, add a function gtk_image_set_icon_size() for the cases where
overriding the icon size is necessary.
Treat icon sizes the same way as pixel sizes, too. So gtk_image_clear()
no longer unsets the icon size.
