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.
Nested main loops are bad, as they introduce layers of complexity caused
by the potential re-entrancy in the case of multiple event sources, like
IPC, threads, etc. Additionally, the programming model they provide—stop
the world while spinning a new loop—does not conform to the event-driven
model employed by GTK.
gtk_window_set_transient_for does not ref its parent either. This is
important because a child widget of the parent might be the one calling
this function.
This was showing up as widget-factory not existing on close after
opening the file chooser.
Similar to previous removals of g_cclosure_marshal_VOID__VOID we can remove
other marshallers for which are a simple G_TYPE_NONE with single parameter.
In those cases, GLib will setup both a c_marshaller and va_marshaller for
us. Before this commit, we would not get a va_marshaller because the
c_marshaller is set.

Remove all the old 2.x and 3.x version annotations.
GTK+ 4 is a new start, and from the perspective of a
GTK+ 4 developer all these APIs have been around since
the beginning.
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.

Its very easy to get extra references to the NativeDialog so that
when you release your last reference any visible dialog is not
hidden. We handle this by adding a destroy method similar to how
you destroy regular toplevels.
This is a base class that essentially mirrors GtkDialog, but
it is not a GtkWindow, as the actual implemetation will be using
native code.
The base class has show and hide vfuncs, as well as a helper function
to run the dialog in a modal fashion.
This will be later used by the native file chooser dialog.
