... instead of GtkSizeGroupMode. Orientation is what we're interested in
after all. When we need a GtkSizeGroupMode, we can do the translation
where we need it.
This way we don't need a marker on GtkWidgetParivate that needs to be
unset later, so we have all our data in the same place and can avoid
problems with reentrancy and shenanigans like that.
But the main reason I wrote that is cleaner code.
With this function now available, we can do size computation in 2
ways:
(1) Compute size with size groups
(2) Compute size without size groups
And have (1) use (2) instead of setting flags on widgets. This patch
does exactly that.
The current approach of using gtk_widget_get_mapped() is broken:
The usual steps taken when showing a window are:
(1) request the sizes
(2) allocate the sizes
(3) show the window in the allocated size
Showing the window with a random size between steps (1) and (2) would of
course
result in extra work and potential flickering when the widgets get
resized to
their proper sizes.
However, as GtkSizeGroup::ignore-hidden uses gtk_widget_get_mapped() to
determine visibility for a widget, the following will happen:
(1) the widget will request a 0 size
(2) the widget will be allocated a 0 size
(3) the widget will be too small when it is shown
gtk_widget_get_visible() however is set in advance. Note that toggling
visibility also causes a gtk-widget_queue_resize() call already so we
take care of changes in here automatically.
Instead of only checking the ignore_hidden flag when getting the
preferred sizes, respect it already when constructing the list of
widgets. This way, widgets don't queue resizes for groups they're
ignored in anyway.
For loops to loop over lists look nicer and actually do the right thing
with "break" and "continue" statements. So they are vastly preferred to
while loops.
This simplifies code and because sizes are cached by the widgets
themselves, it's not a large performance problem (unless people use huge
amounts of widgets in a single size group, but who does that?
Optimized GtkSizeGroup code that is invoked for every queued resize
and every request that is not previously cached by trading qdata on
widgets for 3 extra bitfields on the GtkWidgetPrivate structure.
The gtkprivate.h header contains GtkWidget-specific private symbols that
are not useful except in a handful of cases. Basically everything
includes gtkprivate.h for the GTK_PARAM_* macros.

The geometry widget feature of gtk_window_set_geometry_hints() has
never really worked right because the calculation that GTK+ did to
compute the base size of the window only worked when the geometry
widget had a larger minimum size than anything else in the window.
Setup:
* Move the GtkSizeGroup private functions to a new private header
gtksizegroup-private.h
* Add the possibilty to pass flags to _gtk_size_group_queue_resize(),
with the flag GTK_QUEUE_RESIZE_INVALIDATE_ONLY to suppress adding
the widget's toplevel to the resize queue.
* _gtk_container_resize_invalidate() is added to implement that feature
* _gtk_widget_override_size_request()/_gtk_widget_restore_size_request()
allow temporarily forcing a large minimum size on the geometry
widget without creating resize loops.
GtkWindow:
* Compute the extra width/height around the geometry widget
correctly; print a warning if the computation fails.
* Always make the minimum size at least the natural minimum
size of the toplevel; GTK+ now fails badly with underallocation.
* Always set the base size hint; we were failing to set it
properly when the specified minimum size was overriden, but
it's harmless to always set it.
Tests:
* New test 'testgeometry' that replaces the 'gridded geometry' test
from testgtk. The new test is roughly similar but creates a bunch
of windows showing different possibilities.
* The testgtk test is removed. No need to have both.

It doesn't make sense to keep them separate as GtkSizeRequest requires a
GtkWidget and GtkWidget implements GtkSizeRequest, so you can never have
one without the other.
It also makes the code a lot easier because no casts are required when
calling functions.
Also, the names would translate to gtk_widget_get_width() and people
agreed that this would be a too generic name, so a "preferred" was added
to the names.
So this patch moves the functions:
gtk_size_request_get_request_mode() => gtk_widget_get_request_mode()
gtk_size_request_get_width() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_width()
gtk_size_request_get_height() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_height()
gtk_size_request_get_size() => gtk_widget_get_preferred_size()
gtk_size_request_get_width_for_height() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_width_for_height()
gtk_size_request_get_height_for_width() =>
gtk_widget_get_preferred_height_for_width()
... and moves the corresponding vfuncs to the GtkWidgetClass.
The patch also renames the implementations of the vfuncs in widgets to
include the word "preferrred".
Originally the GtkSizeRequestIface patches left GtkSizeGroup working
only by bumping the minimum sizes - this commit fixes size groups to take
both minimum and natural requests into account.
Use these new methods to handle set_size_request (aka aux_info)
inside gtkwidget.c, instead of having external code mess with it.
The virtual functions can be used for other purposes in the
future. For example, GtkContainer::border_width could be
automatically implemented for all container subclasses.
Since we have a new mechanism for requesting sizes: GtkSizeRequestIface;
it makes no sense to maintain this cache on the GtkWidget structure...
removing the requisition cache however does not break the old "size-request"
signal which is there for backwards compatability reasons.
In any case widget->requisition should not have been accessed,
gtk_widget_get_child_requisition() would have been the correct way
to consult the cache.
This commit also deprecates the newly added gtk_widget_get_requisition()
API and makes it fallback on gtk_size_request_get_size().
This commit makes a few massive changes to the extended layout
code:
a.) gtkextendedlayout.c --> gtksizerequest.c
b.) _is_height_for_width --> get_request_mode()
c.) get_desired_size(), get_desired_width(), get_desired_height() -->
get_size(), get_width(), get_height()

My previous commit to GtkSizeGroup made sure that when
gtk_widget_set_size_request() is set on a widget, it will be
taken into account when computing the widget's own request,
this commit fixes the case where there is no explicit size
request.
