Add a new class, GtkMenuTrackerItem that represents a menu item, to be
used with GtkMenuTracker.
GtkMenuTracker's insert callback now works in terms of this new type
(instead of passing reference to the model and an index to the item).
GtkMenuShell now handles all of the binding tasks internally, mostly
through the use of property bindings. Having bindings for the label and
visibility attributes, in partiular, will help with supporting upcoming
extensions to GMenuModel.
GtkModelMenu has been reduced to a helper class that has nothing to do
with GMenuModel. It represents something closer to an "ideal" API for
GtkMenuItem if we didn't have compatibility concerns (eg: not emitting
"activate" when setting toggle state, no separate subclasses per menu
item type, supporting icons, etc.) Improvements to GtkMenuItem could
eventually shrink the size of this class or remove the need for it
entirely.
Some GtkActionHelper functionality has been duplicated in
GtkMenuTracker, which is suboptimal. The duplication exists so that
other codebases (such as Unity and gnome-shell) can reuse the
GtkMenuTracker code, whereas GtkActionHelper is very much tied to
GtkWidget. Supporting binding arbitrary GtkWidgets to actions vs.
supporting the full range of GMenuModel features for menu items turns
out to be two overlapping but not entirely similar problems. Some of
the duplication (such as roles) can be removed from GtkActionHelper once
Gtk's internal Mac OS menubar support is ported to GtkMenuTracker.
The intent to reuse the code outside of Gtk is also the reason for the
unusual treatment of the enum type introduced in this comment.
This adds no new "public" API to the Gtk library, other than types that
we cannot make private due to GType limitations.
GtkMenuTracker folds a nested structure of sections in a GMenuModel into
a single linear menu, which it expresses to its user by means of 'insert
item at position' and 'remove item at position' callbacks.
The logic for where to insert separators and how to handle action
namespaces is contained within the tracker, removing the need to have
this logic duplicated in the 3 or 4 places that consume GMenuModel.
In comparison with the previous code, the tracker no longer completely
destroys and rebuilds menus every time a single change occurs. As a
result, the new gtkmenu testcase now runs in approximately 3 seconds
instead of ~60 before.

Add an API to GtkAccelLabel for hardcoding the accel key to be displayed
(ie: allowing us to bypass the GtkAccelGroup lookup).
Use that from the GMenuModel-based GtkMenu construction code instead of
passing around the accel group.
This makes accel labels work in bloatpad again.
This patch effectively removes any hope of automatic runtime accel
changes in GMenuModel-based menus without additional application
support but it leaves the door open for this to be supported again in
the future (if we decide that it's important).

If a section or submenu item has a "action-namespace" attribute, the
action names of the created GtkModelMenuItems will be prefixed with that
namespace. Namespaces can be cascaded.
Drop the explicit passing of GActionGroup into the GtkMenu(Bar)
constructors and operate from the action context instead.
With GtkMenuItem implementing GtkActionable, this turns out to be pretty
easy (and most of the code can be removed from GtkModelMenuItem,
including the GActionObserver implementation).
This GtkMenuItem subclass (and GActionObserver implementation) contains
all the knowledge necessary for converting a GMenuModel item description
into a GtkMenuItem.
Remove much of the code that used to do this from
gtkapplicationwindow.c.
