Test brush, palette
Cleanup, remove generator
Rebase, edit docs, install test-dialog.py
Whitespace, and fix failed distcheck
Fix some clang-format, fix fail distcheck
Fix distcheck
Cleanup from review Jehan
Now text layers are proper types, which means that the binding API will also be
nicer (e.g. `txt_layer.set_text('hello world')` in Python).
This commit also adds the param specs allowing to create plug-in procedures with
text layer parameters.
Finally it fixes the few calls in file-pdf-save (apparently the only plug-in
using specific text layer API right now) with explicit type conversion.
gimp_procedure_set_static_help().
The indentation was wrong, probably because of changes to function
names. Fix the generation scripts and regenerate the PDB C files.
Fix the dependency by making the stamp an actual (yet empty/no-op)
header file which is included by all generated source file. This way, we
ensure that meson rebuild .o files when the .pdb sources are changed.
This is the second solution proposed by eli-schwartz here:

GLib has a specific type of NULL-terminated string arrays:
`G_TYPE_STRV`, which is the `GType` of `char**` aka `GStrv`.
By using this type, we can avoid having a `GimpStringArray` which is a
bit cumbersome to use for both the C API, as well as bindings. By using
`GStrv`, we allow other languages to pass on string lists as they are
used to, while the bindings will make sure to do the right thing.
In the end, it makes the API a little bit simpler for everyone, and
reduces confusion for people who are used to working with string arrays
in other C/GLib based code (and not having 2 different types to denote
the same thing).

It isn't being used by any plug-in or any code in GIMP at all even.
Let's get rid of it while we can still break API, so we can cut down on
all the complexity of the gimp-param stuff a bit.
and in an attack of madness, changes almost all file plug-in
code to use GFile instead of filenames, which means passing
the GFile down to the bottom and get its filename at the very
end where it's actually needed.
Turn all ID param specs into object param specs (e.g. GimpParamImageID
becomes GimpParamImage) and convert between IDs and objects in
gimpgpparams.c directly above the the wire protocol, so all of app/,
libgimp/ and plug-ins/ can deal directly with objects down to the
lowest level and not care about IDs.
Use the actual object param specs for procedure arguments and return
values again instead of a plain g_param_spec_object() and bring back
the none_ok parameter.
This implies changing the PDB type checking functions to work on pure
integers instead of IDs (one can't check whether object creation is
possible if performing that check requires the object to already
exist).
For example gimp_foo_is_valid() becomes gimp_foo_id_is_valid() and is
not involved in automatic object creation magic at the protocol
level. Added wrappers which still say gimp_foo_is_valid() and take the
respective objects.
Adapted all code, and it all becomes nicer and less convoluted, even
the generated PDB wrappers in app/ and libgimp/.
No need of is_id_arg() anymore in pdb/lib.pl. Let's reuse the {id}
value. Also I had to add an additional trick for GimpDisplay which we
will now generate as such in libgimp PDB files, but still need to show
as GimpObject on app/pdb/.
As previously, only the new classes and the PDB generation for a first
step.
on behalf of plug-in authors who have no style or can't type.
Instead, simply reject non-canonical procedure names and remove all
code that keeps aroud the original non-canonical shit just to pass it
back to the plug-in.
Which return proper GParamSpecs. Incuding some useless testing code in
gimp_procedural_db_proc_info(), to make sure things work, will go away
again soon.
Don't unconditionally overwrite all the proc's description, author
etc. Instead, try to preserve them and append the "Deprecated" notes
to the help texts and generated comments.
Only affects one procedure because we killed the meta info of all
other deprecated procs so far, but now we don't have to do that any
longer.
It never belonged inside "tools". Also rename its "pdb" subdirectory
to "groups". This had to happen before 2.10 so cherry-picking between
branches doesn't become a nightmare in the future.
