Instead of having separate options for each print backend, we can use
the same approach as the input method modules: a single option, with a
comma-separated list of print backends.
GDK has a lock to mark critical sections inside the backends.
Additionally, code that would re-enter into the GTK main loop was
supposed to hold the lock.
Back in the Good Old Days™ this was guaranteed to kind of work only on
the X11 backend, and would cause a neat explosion on any other GDK
backend.
During GTK+ 3.x we deprecated the API to enter and leave the critical
sections, and now we can remove all the internal uses of the lock, since
external API that uses GTK+ 4.x won't be able to hold the GDK lock.

The main GDK thread lock is not portable and deprecated.
The only reason why gdk_threads_add_timeout() and
gdk_threads_add_timeout_full() exist is to allow invoking a callback
with the GDK lock held, in case 3rd party libraries still use the
deprecated gdk_threads_enter()/gdk_threads_leave() API.
Since we're removing the GDK lock, and we're releasing a new major API,
such code cannot exist any more; this means we can use the GLib API for
installing timeout callbacks.

Check UUID for printers obtained via DNSSD whether
they are already installed on local CUPS server.
Don't show such printers.
Not all printers published via DNSSD have UUID entry though.

We are currently truncating job names to 255 bytes, because that's the
maximum allowed length of job-name attribute in CUPS. This is a CUPS
limitation that GtkPrintOperation shouldn't need to know, and it
shouldn't affect other backends, that might have other limitations or
even no limitation at all. This has another side effect, that what you
set as GtkPrintOperation:job-name could be different to what you get if
the property is truncated, this is not documented in
gtk_print_operation_set_job_name(). So, I think the job name should be
truncated by the CUPS backend, right before setting the job-name
attribute.

The previous patches didn't mark some strings as to be translated, and
tried to translate strings with a variable part already inside the
string, which isn't going to work.
Mark the strings as translatable with context, and also make sure to
translate static strings when getting them out of their structure.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764585
Some of the translated strings in the cups printbackend are short
and generic and might occur in other contexts. Give them disambiguating
message contexts to avoid translation problems.
In order to retrieve the user options for a printer, the respective
printer name is used.
This fixes the comparison of printer names to avoid that the options of
another printer are accidently read whose name starts with the same
letters, but is longer (e.g. "myprinterlongername" instead of
"myprinter").
This fixes Bug 753628.
"Yo, we heard you like traversing NULL-terminated arrays to operate on
them, so we called g_strv_length() as the for condition, so you can
iterate the array while iterating the array."
Instead of making famed rapper and television producer Xzibit proud, we
should avoid calling g_strv_length() on an array while looping on the
array, to avoid quadratic complexity.
We do this in various places that deal with arrays of strings that we
cannot really guess are short enough not to matter — e.g. the list of
CSS selectors in the inspector, or the required authentication
information for printing.
Request "output-bin-supported" and "output-bin-default" attributes through
IPP if there is no PPD for selected printer.
Pass "output-bin" option with other options in printer_get_options().
Translate standard IPP values of "output-bin" option.

Add parameter for specification of port to gtk_cups_connection_cups_new().
Use default port returned by ippPort() if the given port is lower than 0.

If auth_info_required is only set to "negotiate" the
request password dialog is shown anyway for each print
job without any input fields. As the request_password
dialog only handles username, password and domain.
