This is a modernization of the GtkAboutDialog look done
by William Jon McCann. The most noteworthy changes are:
- no more subdialogs
- show license short text in the main dialog
- less verbose email link formatting
- the dialog is modal to its transient parent
With gtk_show_uri, global configurability of link activation has
moved to GIO/gvfs. For local overrides, GtkLinkButton has the ::clicked
signal, and GtkAboutDialog gets an ::activate-link signal.

The keysyms create a lot of potential namespace conflicts for
C, and are especially problematic for introspection, where we take
constants into the namespace, so GDK_Display conflicts with GdkDisplay.
For C application compatiblity, add gdkkeysyms-compat.h which uses
the old names.
Just one user in GTK+ continues to use gdkkeysyms-compat.h, which is
the gtkimcontextsimple.c, since porting that requires porting more
custom Perl code.
It is not safe to assume that copyright text in applications is
one liner, therefore it's better to split it from the program name.
Also, the license text should be in a paragraph of its own, so
add an extra '\n' above it.

The :license-type property of GtkAboutDialog allows using a symbolic
enumeration value that will construct a placeholder license preamble
linking to a specific URL. This allows localization of the licensing
text without using a translation of the actual license, since it would
not be valid.

This commit was created using a script that searched for all docstrings
containing a parameter and the string 'or %NULL'.
Gdk backends and demos excluded as they are not part of a public API

The Gtk-custom.c file in gir-repository contained a number of
introspection annotations. Merge those into the GTK source files.
Some documentation was moved from the tmpl/ files to accomodate
the addition of annotations.
Adds default URL and Email hooks which use gtk_show_uri(). It is still
possible to provide one's own hooks, and one can disable the default
hooks by setting NULL hooks. Bug #577793.
The style-set handler was supposed to set the background color of
the text views in the credits dialog, but due to a thinko it never
had any effect, unless a theme change happened while the dialog
was open. Seems best to keep the current appearance now and remove
the handler. (#577868)
