f561000124 docs: Clean up many dangling links
In many cases, these were references to no longer
existing api, so some rewording was necessary.

ecc329fa2a a11y: Add change notification to GtkATContext
Emit a ::state-change signal when state changes;
this was already a vfunc, but we want to listen
to state changes from the inspector too.

4060febd7f a11y: Make GtkATContext.create() public
Implementations of the GtkAccessible interface should have a way to
instantiate the appropriate GtkATContext.

b9a1cb74a1 a11y: Add API to retrieve accessible values
We are going to use this for implementing ATContext subclasses, but also
in the testing API.

03b773f45a a11y: Change default accessible role
Only GtkWidget should use GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_WIDGET as its default
accessible role; the default for GtkAccessible and GtkATContext should
be GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_NONE, meaning "an element whose implicit native
role semantics will not be mapped to the accessibility API", according
to the WAI-ARIA specification.

0d87f8cd62 a11y: Add testing API
We want to test the accessibility API, as well as the implementation
inside each widget. For that, we should expose an API that lets us
verify that a GtkAccessible has a given role, as well as a given
property.

The API follows the pattern of other GTest API:

 - a macro to assert that a condition is respected
 - a function that prints out the error message in case of failure

732578eb53 a11y: Consolidate the attributes container
While we have split the various attributes for convenience, there's no
reason why we should have specialised data types for the attributes
container object.

1124f2507d a11y: Add relations API
Since we split relation attributes from the generic properties, we need
to add API for setting and retrieving their values.

da1ce01a6f Add accessible properties to GtkAccessible
We propagate the accessible state and properties to each ATContext in
the same virtual function, since they are functionally similar.

a382dfd3bd Add GtkATContext
The ATContext type is meant to be used as the base class for
implementations of the assistive technology API—the actual mechanism
needed to communicate to components like the screen reader, or any other
AT.

Every time the widget state changes, the ATContext is meant to broadcast
the state change; and every time the AT queries the state of a UI
element, the ATContext is meant to provide that information.

We also have a "test" ATContext implementation, which is meant to be
used to write tests to verify that changes are propagated without
requiring a whole desktop session.
