Those property features don't seem to be in use anywhere.
They are redundant since the docs cover the same information
and more. They also created unnecessary translation work.
Closes#4904
Remove a boatload of "or %NULL" from nullable parameters
and return values. gi-docgen generates suitable text from
the annotation that we don't need to duplicate.
This adds a few missing nullable annotations too.
Since it's a type with sub-classes, we need to use GTypeInstance (at the
very least), otherwise we won't be able to address each sub-class as
such.
This is similar to how GskRenderNode and GdkEvent are handled, with the
added difficulty that GtkExpression is meant to be used in properties,
in order to be deserialised by GtkBuilder. This requires adding a
GParamSpec sub-class that we can match on from within GtkBuilder,
alongside some convenience API for storing a GtkExpression inside a
GValue.
We require a C compiler supporting C99 now. The main purpose of
these fallbacks was for MSVC. From what I can see this is now all supported
by MSVC 2015+ anyway.
The only other change this includes is to replace isnanf() with the
(type infering) C99 isnan() macro, because MSVC doesn't provide isnanf().
