Use the new ::resource-base-path property on #GApplication to attempt to
load the menu layout of the application.
We look first at gtk/menus-appmenu.ui or gtk/menus-traditional.ui
depending on the setting of gtk_application_prefers_app_menu(). Failing
that, we fall back to the common case of gtk/menus.ui (which should
always be given). This provides a convenient way for application
authors to provide a different set of menus, depending on the desktop
environment they find themselves in.
As is the intention with other resources, if the resource base path is
unset, nothing will be loaded. Additionally, if the expected files are not
found, it is not an error -- just nothing happens.

Applications can call this to determine if they should an app menu.
This will be %FALSE on desktop environments that do not have an
application menu like the one in gnome-shell. It is %FALSE on Windows
and Mac OS.
Applications are completely free to totally ignore this API -- it is
only provided as a hint to help applications that may be interested in
supporting non-GNOME platforms with a more native 'look and feel'.

Rework how accels are handled on GtkApplicationWindow.
Instead of having GtkApplication fill the GtkAccelMap which is then used
by GtkApplicationWindow to create a GtkAccelGroup filled with closures
that is then associated with the window, do it directly.
GtkApplication now keeps a list of accels and their actions.
Accelerators on a GtkApplicationWindow ask GtkApplication to execute the
appropriate action.
This saves a fair bit of complexity and memory use (due to not having to
create all those closures and accelmap entries). The new approach also
supports multiple accels per action (although there is not yet a public
API for it).
This patch (and the ones before) Reviewed and ACK'd by Matthias Clasen.
This patch changes all uses of GDK_DEPRECATED(_FOR) in gtk headers
by the versioned variants, GDK_DEPRECATED_IN_3_x(_FOR). At the same
time, we add GDK_AVAILABLE_IN_3_x annotations for all API additions
in 3.2 and 3.4.
Instead of firing a 'quit' signal and expecting the application to do
something that will cause it to quit, just call the new
g_application_quit() API for ourselves.

This seems a bit "too powerful" and unlikely to be used by most
applications. Remove it from now, until someone comes up with a strong
desire for it.

We don't expose ::quit-requested as API anymore. Instead, we expect
users to register inhibitors when needed. Without quit-requested,
there is no need for ::quit-cancelled and gtk_application_quit_response
anymore.
We still emit ::quit when the application is about to quit.
This lets applications block logout and similar actions ahead
of time. Currently only implemented for D-Bus, but Windows has
very similar API since Vista.
This is fairly basic, allowing applications to learn when
the session manager is about to end the session, and possibly
block this. The only implementation at this point is using the
org.gnome.SessionManager D-Bus interface of gnome-session. It should
be straightforward to port the EggSMClient implementations for
Windows and OS X.
We add the app-menu and menubar public APIs to GtkApplication while
leaving the implementation in GApplication.
The actual implementation will be moved soon.
Sub-classes of GtkApplication might want to override the way an
application window is created - for instance, to hook into GtkBuilder
or to set up some basic UI or state.
A new GtkApplication::create_window() virtual function is added to the
GtkApplicationClass vtable, which returns the newly created GtkWindow.
The gtk_application_create_window() function calls the vfunc and adds
the returned window to the list of windows managed by the application
instance.
Calling gtk_application_add_window() will also set the default window,
if one is not already set.
This commit also removes a spurious g_object_ref_sink() on the newly
created GtkWindow.
This is a work in progress to stub out an application class. The
primary goal is to provide a mechanism for applications to export
GtkActions, and there is a standard "Quit" action.
This is based on GApplication.
Future work:
* Add a way to say "This is my application menubar", which gets
put into all toplevel windows on non-OS-X, and into the top
on OS X.
* Support session management.
* Support application settings.
