Though it is still possible to use an image ID as procedure parameter,
it is now possible to pass a GimpImage GParamSpecObject.
Over the wire, this will transform back and forth into a GimpImageID,
totally transparently for the plug-in which will only always get a
GimpImage.
It's just too weird to be public. Remove its properties from the wire
protocol and from pluginrc. Instead, have all GParamSpecs' flags on
the wire and in pluginrc, so we can use stuff like
GIMP_PARAM_NO_VALIDATE.
Port the remaining few places to GIMP_PROC_ARG_STRING().
I'm sure something is broken now wrt UTF-8 validation,
will add tighter checks in the next commit.
for procedure arguments. This implies creating a new value array in
gimp_procedure_run() if the passed array is too short, instead of
just appending to the passed array, which was ugly anyway.
- libgimpbase: change GPParam to transfer all information about the
GValues we use, in the same way done for GPParamDef. GPParam is now
different from GimpParam from libgimp, pointers can't be casted any
longer. The protocol is now completely GimpPDBArgType-free. Remove
gp_params_destroy() from the public API.
- libgimp: add API to convert between an array of GPParams and
GimpValueArray, the latter is now the new official API for dealing
with procedure arguments and return values, GimpParam is cruft (the
wire now talks with GimpPlugIn more directly than with the members
of GimpPlugInInfo, which need additional compat conversions).
- libgimp, app: rename gimpgpparamspecs.[ch] to simply
gimpgpparams.[ch] which is also more accurate because they now
contain GValue functions too. The code that used to live in
app/plug-in/plug-in-params.h is now completely in libgimp.
- app: contains no protocol compat code any longer, the only place
that uses GimpPDBArgType is the PDB query procedure implementation,
which also needs to change.
- app: change some forgotten int32 run-modes to enums.
