Add the needed custom build steps to generate the GResource and
enumeration sources that is needed for the build, and make sure that the
build is able to find the Graphene headers and lib.
Also add the necessary CFLAGS needed for building GSK.
This follows what happens in the autotools builds.
Also fix some project namespaces and the install project where there is a typo
in a project dep, which may cause a problem during the build.
This adds the initial MSVC build items needed to build GSK under Visual Studio,
this is part of it that is required, we need to add items to the property sheets
to generate the code that is generated via glib-mkenums and glib-compile-resources.
This set includes, with the autotools scripts for the complete:
-GSK project files, which is integrated into the gtk+-4.sln.
-The NMake snippets to build the introspection files for GSK.
-The .bat files to call glib-mkenums to generate the enumeration sources.
We now need C99 features from the compiler which are only supported by
Visual Studio 2013 and later, so drop the MSVC 2008~2012 projects, and make
the baseline supported Visual Studio version be 2013. Update the build files
as a result.
This updates all the projects files to be be named appropriately as we move from GTK-3.x to 4.x,
and updates the autotools files so that things are distributed and generated properly.
Also remove deprecated/gtkstatusicon-quartz.c from gtk/Makefile.am, as that was causing 'make dist'
to fail as that file has been removed.
This fixes 'make dist' with the updated existing project files in proper order.
Note that this does not include the new GSK, which will be added later, so the project files do
not yet build the whole stack on Visual Studio at this point.
Generate .pc files for the package, so that it would be easier for
building introspection for packages that depend on GTK+. Also split
PythonPath into PythonPath and PythonPathX64 to facilitate the build of
introspection files, which need to have Python that is built with the
same ac=rchitecture where GTK+ is built.
Clean up the formatting and spacing a bit.
Build the gtk-update-icon-cache, gtk-builder-tool and gtk-query-settings
tools and run gtk-update-icon-cache as part of the post-build
"installation" process.
Pointed out (and reminded) by Paolo Borelli in bug 759436 that we should
build, "install" and run gtk-update-icon-cache in the MSVC builds as well.
"Add" Visual Studio 2015 projects by what we did before: Copy the Visual
Studio 2010 project files and replace the items in there as needed, as
the formats of the 2010 and 2015 projects are largely the same.
We need to rename the projects so that when these projects are added
into an all-in-one solution file that will build the GTK+ 2/3 stack,
the names of the projects will not collide with the GTK+-2.x ones,
especially as GTK+-2.x and GTK+-3.x are done to co-exist on the same
system. This is due to the case that the MSVC projects are directly
carried over from the GTK+-2.x ones and was then updated for 3.x.
We still need to update the GUIDs of the projects, so that they won't
conflict with the GTK+-2.x ones.
Rename the "install" projects as "gtk-install" as we are planning to have a
grand solution file that incorporates all project files of the GTK+ stack
with their dependencies, to make it easier for people to build GTK+ from
scratch from a stock installation of Visual Studio 2008 and later.
This utility would likely be useful for Windows builds of GTK+, given the
reasons Alex cited for coming up with this utility[1], and MSVC build
support for librsvg is not available at this time (possible, but not
implemented yet).

As the Visual Studio 2012/2013 are only slightly different from the Visual
Studio 2010 projects, we can provide support for them by using scripts to
copy the Visual Studio 2010 projects, and update the specific parts as
necessary.
Thus, there would be little maintenance overhead for these as only the 2010
projects need to be kept up-to-date as a result. This might change when we
do get the stack working with WinRT/Metro, but that's going to be another
totally different issue.
