Simplify all view model APIs and always return G_TYPE_OBJECT as the
item-type for every model.
It turns out nobody uses item-type anyway.
So instead of adding lots of APIs, forcing people to think about it and
trying to figure out how to handle filter or map models that modify item
types, just having an easy life is a better approach.
All the models need to be able to deal with any type of object going
through anyway.
Make items-changed never emit 2 signals, instead, always emit only one,
potentially by extending the range reported in items-changed.
And be a lot more exhaustive about autoselect tests.
1. Do not make position an inout variable
The function is meant to return a range for a given position, not modify
a position. So it makes no conceptual sense to use an inout variable.
2. Pass the selected state as an out variable
Using a boolean return value - in particular in an interface full of
boolean return values - makes the return value intuitively feel like a
success/failure return. Using an out variable clarifies the usage.
3. Allow passing every position value
Define what happens when position >= list.n_items
4. Clarify the docs about how this function should behave
In particular, mention the case from point (3)
5. Add more tests
Again, (3) needs testing.
