as there were none in this file, but these are clearly just wrappers around
GEGL ops, so it seems fitting.

Committer's (Jehan) updates:
- Component type is now int32 (int8 is not a PDB type available anymore).
- PDB files re-generated to handle changes in API and types.
This is not made to set the imported or exported file, but only the XCF file.
See previous commit to see what happens when this API is used to set non-XCF
file extensions (saving fails unless one edits the filename).
This commit is a fixup commit for MR !790 which had a few issues:
- The args for shadows and highlights adjustments are "shadows-ccorrect" and
"highlights-ccorrect" respectively.
- Also fixing generated code.

… moved to the implementation file.
When declaring with G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE(), the whole concept is that the struct
is made private (which also allows the type to evolve without breaking ABI if we
some day decide to make the class derivable). For this to make sense, the struct
goes in the implementation file, not the header.
For the rest, it's mostly alignment bugs and the like.
Simplifies chooser widgets (e.g. GimpBrushSelect) by eliminating attributes (e.g. opacity) of chosen resource.
See #8745, but this commit fixes that by first refactoring the code.
Refactors GUI widgets (e.g. GimpBrushSelectButton and GimpBrushSelect etc.)
Refactor by "Extract class" GimpResourceSelectButton from GimpBrushSelectButton etc.
This moves common code into an inherited class (formerly called GimpSelectButton)
but the subclasses still exist.
The subclasses mainly just do drawing now.
Refactor by "Extract module" GimpResourceSelect from GimpBrushSelect etc.
Moves common code into one file, generic at runtime on type of GimpResource,
that is, the new code dispatches on type i.e. switch statements.
In the future, when core is changed some of that can be deleted.
The files gimpbrushselect.[c,h] etc. are deleted.
The module adapts the API from core to the API of callbacks to libgimp.
Note that core is running the resource chooser (select) widgets remotely.
Core is still calling back over the wire via PDB with more attributes
than necessary.
The new design gets the attributes from the resource themselves,
instead of receiving them from core callback.
The libgimp side adapts by discarding unneeded attributes.
In the future, core (running choosers for plugins) can be simplified also.
Fix gimp_prop_chooser_brush_new same as other resources.

When the clipboard contains raw image data or single layers, it's the same as
the normal "Paste" (and "Paste In Place" respectively). These actions are useful
if you want to copy a bunch of layers and paste them "merged" into a single
layers (since now the copy-paste of multiple layers will create multiple
layers).
It is somehow similar to the "Copy Visible" action except that it works on
selected layers only and work at paste time, making the action more versatile.
When several drawables were selected, it was pasting at the top of the layer
stack. Instead, paste over the top selected layer ("top" visually in the Layers
dockable).
There was the question of: what should we do when pasting over a layer group.
Should we consistently paste the new layers above the group or inside the group?
After discussions with Aryeom, we decided to stay consistent and paste above, at
least for now.
It seems I forgot to fix some usage of core gimp_vectors_export*(),
which now take a list of paths (not a single path anymore since commit
9fc8260c7c), as these were used by PDB functions.
Missing functions were:
* gimp_image_get_selected_channels()
* gimp_image_get_selected_vectors()
* gimp_image_list_selected_channels()
* gimp_image_list_selected_vectors()
* gimp_image_set_selected_channels()
* gimp_image_set_selected_vectors()
* gimp_image_take_selected_channels()
* gimp_image_take_selected_vectors()
There are discussions of renaming GimpVectors to GimpPath, which would
also be consistent with the GUI and make the always-plural less akward
in API. We'll see. For now keeping named like this.
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.
After re-reading #534, I realized I missed the discussion about unsupported
markup by the tool. Then I tested and confirmed what Ian Munsie initially said
in a comment: unsupported markups are properly rendered in the text layer, yet
are simply dropped when editing with the text tool.
This is actually the ideal behavior as it means that with the API, you can even
go further than what is currently possible with the GUI. So it gives nice powers
to people who can script GIMP. We still need some warning in the function
documentation to tell developers about this weakness in the tool GUI.
This complements the existing text_layer_get_markup function and allows
scripts to create and modify complex text layers.
It adds the <markup> root tag if it was not supplied and will run the
markup through pango_parse_markup() to check for errors.
Reviewer's (Jehan) note: this is a mostly untouched patch contributed in #534,
except that code moved around. I also fixed the header set in the .pdb, a link
to pango markup docs and added the meson changes.
Now that we bumped our meson requirement, meson is complaining about
several features now deprecated even in the minimum required meson
version:

Adds a simulation_bpc and simulation_intent to GimpImage to allow
plug-ins to access it
for CMYK import/export.
Four pdb functions were added to enable this access:
image_get_simulation_bpc (), image_set_simulation_bpc (),
image_get_simulation_intent (), and image_set_simulation_intent ().
Next, it updates menu options and code to support GimpImage's
internal simulation intent and bpc.
New 'simulation-intent-changed' and 'simulation-bpc-changed signal
are emitted via
GimpColorManagedInterface so that relevant tools
(such as the
CYMK color picker, GimpColorFrame, and future pop-overs)
are aware of these changes.
Meson is apparently able to show different warning depending on the
meson version tests we do in specific code paths.
Since our global required meson is 0.53.0 but on some code paths, we
test for 0.57.0, we must use meson.source_root() on older meson and
meson.project_source_root() on newer one.

Plug-in localization was always partially plug-in side, especially for
things like custom GUI. But labels or blurb in GIMP (such as in menus or
action search) were localizing GIMP side.
It had many drawbacks:
- To get menu localization, a plug-in had to set up gettext, even though
they might want to use something else for their GUI (after all, giving
facilities for gettext is a good idea, but there is no reason to force
using this system).
- There was a complex internal system passing the localization domain
name, as well as the catalog file system path to core, then through
various classes which we can now get rid of.
- There could be domain name clashes, if 2 plug-ins were to use the same
i18n domain name. This was handled in now removed functions
gimp_plug_in_manager_get_locale_domains() by simply keeping a unique
one (and gimp_plug_in_manager_bind_text_domains() would just bind the
domain to the kept directory). In other words, one of the duplicate
plug-ins would use the wrong catalog. We could try to make the whole
thing more complicated or try to forbid plug-ins to use any random
name (in particular made easier with the new extension wrapper). But
anyway this whole issue doesn't happen anymore if localization is
fully made plug-in side, so why bother?
I tried to evaluate the advantages of the core-side localization of
plug-in labels/blurbs and could only find one theoretical: if we wanted
to keep access to the original English text. This could be useful
(theoretically) if we wanted to search (e.g. in the action search) in
both localized and English text; or if we wanted to be able to swap
easily en/l10n text in a UI without reload. But even if we were to ever
do this, it would only be possible for plug-ins (GEGL operations in
particular are localized GEGL-side), so it lacks consistency. And it's
unsure why special-casing English should really make sense for other
language natives who want text in their lang, and search in their lang.
They don't necessarily care about original.
So in the end, I decided to simplify the whole thing, make localization
of plug-ins a plug-in side thing. Core will only receive translated text
and that's it. It cuts a lot of code out of the core, simplify runtime
processing and make plug-in creation simpler to understand.
The only think I still want to look at is how exactly menu paths are
translated right now. Note that it still works, but it's possible that
some things may be worth improving/simplifying on this side too.
Adds a simulation_profile to GimpImage to allow plug-ins to access it
for CMYK import/export.
Two pdb functions were added to enable this access:
image_get_simulation_profile () and image_set_simulation_profile()
Next, it updates menu options and code to support GimpImage's
internal simulation profile. Menu items are moved from View to Image's
Color Management section.
New 'simulation-profile-changed' signal is emitted via
GimpColorManagedInterface so that relevant tools (such as the
CYMK color picker, GimpColorFrame, and future dockable
dialogue) are aware of these changes.
The get() API are sometimes nicer in C code because it's just simpler to
loop through C arrays, but they end up with similar API to the list()
variants for binding, or with a useless size return value (since most
higher level languages have length-aware array types, which is what
GList are transformed into).
So let's use the list() variants as the main ones and skip the get()
variants. I hesitated to rename the list() variants to get() with
`(rename-to)` annotations but since I am unsure if the get() bindings
are absolutely useless, I don't think it's the best idea. Maybe on some
other language usable as GI binding, the get() variant might be
different again and nicer to use. So if we shadowed these by renaming
list() ones, the day we change our mind, we'd have to rename get() ones
too (which would be very confusing), or else break bindings' API. To
avoid this, I just skip the get() ones altogether in bindings but leave
their name available in the bindings.
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.
We changed the logic of _gimp_plug_in_domain_register() which is now
only called when a domain is explicitly registered (which is not the
case by default anymore). Let's update the function documentation and
also make it clear that third-party developers in particular should not
play with it if they want their plug-ins to be properly localized.
The CLI options now know which procedures are batch procedures or not.
First it means that it won't just randomly try any procedure name one
may pass and will properly output an error if you pass a non-existing
interpreter procedure.
Secondly, there is no default interpreter anymore (unless only one
interpreter exists). If you don't set an interpreter procedure with
--batch-interpreter or if you pass a wrong one, it will output the list
of available batch procedure, thus helping you understanding how to use
the --batch option.
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:
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/10196#issuecomment-1080053413
This was introducted in commit 65eff6f150, i.e. together with the
initial port. I have no idea why this is here and if it is about the
stamp-pdbgen, why would we want to remove it. The PDB is a major piece
of our codebase and the simplicity to generate new PDB procedures is a
core feature.
The build now successfully build the PDB files into the source folder
itself. Unfortunately it seems I can't get meson dependencies to work
properly, once more! I added a "sources" argument to the relevant
library() or static_library() but it still uses old versions to build
these. E.g. if I add an error on purpose to a pdb file, the next build
still passes, yet the second-next fails (as it should have before).
Note that I even tested a declare_dependency() with just the "sources"
arguments, because it says "sources to add to targets (or generated
header files that should be built before sources including them are
built)" (so I assume it means that it should be trigger a rebuild,
otherwise it's useless) but it's just not working. I'll investigate
more.
Still going with this for now, because at least generating the PDB
source was a big miss until now. But we should
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).

I cleaned many remaining places where the concept of linked item still
survived.
On loading an XCF file with linked items, we are now going to create a
named sets for the linked items, allowing people to easily select these
back if the relation was still needed.
We don't remove gimp_item_get_linked() yet and in particular, we don't
save stored items into XCF files. This will come in an upcoming change.
The `env` option is new (from meson 0.57.0), yet we depend on meson
0.50.0 and bumping the meson requirement is not a possibility (we have
bad experience when we did this for babl).
Instead, implement the new option usage and a workaround which would
work also with older meson.
I could have implemented only the workaround, but it's also nice to
write down the better syntax so that when we actually bump meson
requirement, getting rid of the workaround will just be a matter of
hitting delete and done. Though it also means we must keep both if/else
blocks in sync, so it has its drawbacks.
See the discussion in !506.
By doing this, I also add the ability to use a composited projection of
the selected drawables as source. This is similar to "Sample merged"
except that instead of using the whole visible image, we use what would
have been visible if only the selected layers existed.
Note that this doesn't work together with the previously added ability
of multi-cloning from each layer to itself. This ability works for
cloning from multiple layers to one.
Since it appeared with GLib 2.68.0, we could not change this until we
bumped the dependency which has only become possible a few days ago
(since Debian testing is our baseline for dependency bumps). Cf.
previous commit.
As this is a drop-in replacement (just a guint parameter changed to
gsize to avoid integer overflow), search-and-replace with:
> sed -i 's/g_memdup\>/g_memdup2/g' `grep -rIl 'g_memdup\>' *`
… followed by a few manual alignment tweaks when necessary.
This gets rid of the many deprecation warnings which we had lately when
building with a recent GLib version.
When a selection exists, we are copying then pasting the selection
contents. In particular, with multi-layer selection, it means pasting a
merged result of the selected layers (like a sample merged but limited
to selected layers).
Yet when no selection exists, with a single layer selected, a cut in
particular would remove the layer fully, then a paste would copy it
elsewhere (in the same image or even on a different image). This was
still working, but not with multiple layers. This is now fixed and we
can now copy/cut then paste several layers (without merge), which is
sometimes a very practical way to move layers (sometimes simpler than
drag'n drop, especially between images).
As a consequence, the PDB function gimp_edit_paste() now also returns an
array of layers (not a single layer).
The gimp_drawable_type() is an issue though as gimp_drawable_get_type()
is already defined as a common GObject API.
Though I'm actually wondering if GimpImageType is well called. Rather
than Type, shouldn't we go with ColorModel?

Sorry plug-in developers, more porting work! But really this seems like
the right thing to do in order not to get stuck with inconsistent naming
for many more years to come.
I always found the docs misleading because when it says "Returns the
list of layers contained in the specified image", I really read "all the
layers, at any level", except it doesn't. It only returns the root
layers and it is up to the plug-in developer to loop through these if
one needs to go deeper.
So let's make the function docs clearer.
The new function gimp_procedure_set_sensitivity_mask() allows plug-ins
to tell when a procedure should be marked as sensitive or not.
gimp_procedure_get_sensitivity_mask() retrieves this information.
Currently plug-ins are automatically marked as sensitive when an image
is present and a single drawable is selected. Nowadays, we can have
multiple selected layers so we should allow plug-ins to tell us if they
support working on multiple drawables. Actually we could even imagine
new plug-ins which would be made to work only on multiple drawables.
Oppositely, there are a lot of plug-ins which don't care at all if any
drawable is selected at all (so we should allow no drawable selected).
Finally why not even imagine plug-ins which don't care if no image is
shown? E.g. plug-ins to create new images or whatnot. This new API
allows our core to know all this and show procedure sensitivity
accordingly. By default, when the function is not called, the 1 image
with 1 drawable selected case is the default, allowing existing plug-ins
easier update.
Note: this only handles the sensitivity part right now. A plug-in which
would advertize working on several layer would still not work, because
the core won't allow sending several layers. It's coming in further
commits.
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.
The `precision` parameter in particular had no min/max, which meant we
could provide a forbidden parameter (e.g. a negative precision) which
would cause a core CRITICAL. We must forbid illegal values from PDB side
(hence outputting a normal plug-in error message, not a core bug).
Also improving a bit the description of this parameter as I was
wondering what precision was needed exactly to get a stroke length. This
is the precision for determining whether a portion of the stroke is
"straight enough" or if we want to break it into smaller pieces until we
get a straight portion.
It is more accurate to say it returns a list of parasite names rather
than a list of parasites (as we could take it as meaning a list of
GimpParasite). Of course, we would soon see the actual element contents
(if not for the introspection metadata (element-type gchar*)), but
better being accurate in textual docs too.
… instead of gimp_pdb_is_canonical_procedure().
The later would set an error saying "Procedure name '%s' is not a
canonical identifier". Yet the data label is not a procedure name. It is
a random name. I'm not sure why we need it to be canonical too, but why
not. In any case, let's use the right function.
There were still a few references to functions which have been removed
from GIMP 3 (because they were deprecated in previous versions), which I
found as I was doing an inventory of removed functions.
Thanks to Wormnest for pushing me to look further. Since gimp-file-save
is actually redirecting the call to another procedure (save proc for the
specific format) which might have more arguments, including string
arguments. When it finds any, it sets it to an empty string "" (which I
guess is ok as "default value when we don't know what to put there").
The previous code would not hurt. Starting at the fourth argument
(GFile), it would just do nothing, then continue with the firth and
further. Still, starting directly at the fifth arg is the proper code
for this.
Our Preferences exposes a concept of "Preferred color profile" (for RGB,
grayscale and CMYK), which is used in some places to be proposed as
default alternative to built-in profiles. But it was not used in the
import color profile dialog (only 2 choices were: keep the image profile
or convert to built-in RGB).
This commit now adds this third choice, which is even made default when
hitting the "Convert" button directly, without tweaking with the dialog.
Because we can assume that if someone made the explicit choice to label
such a profile as "Preferred", this is more likely the one to convert to
(if one even wants to convert from an embedded profile anyway).
As for the `Preferences > Image Import & Export > Color profile policy`,
they now propose 4 choices: Ask, Keep embedded profile, Convert to
built-in or preferred profiles.
… gimp_image_policy_color_profile().
These functions allow a plug-in to explicitly execute the Rotation and
Profile conversion policies on an image (which may be any of
Rotating/Discarding/Ask or Converting/Keeping/Ask respectively). These
policies are automatically executed when loading an image from GIMP
interfaces, but they won't be when loading an image from the PDB. Then
it is up to the calling code to decide what to do (which can be either
some arbitrary code or following the user policy).
When clicking on the selection mask (in the dockable view) or when
dropping a color on this same view, we can now select by color based on
the selected layer composition (not only one single layer, nor the whole
image as sample merged, but also a specific list of composited layers).
gimp_channel_select_by_color() is made multi-drawable aware as a
consequence of this.
When several layers are selected, each layer will merge down with the
layer below it. This is similar to running Merge Down several times, one
for each selected layer.
This implied a lot of other core changes, which also pushed me into
improving some of the edit actions and PDB calls to be multi-layer aware
in the same time.
Note that it is still work-in-progress, but I just had to commit
something in an acceptable intermediate state otherwise I was just going
crazy.
In particular now the various transform tools are multi-layer aware and
work simultaneously on all selected layers (and the linked layers if any
of the selected layers is linked too). Both preview and final transform
processing works.
In the limitations, preview doesn't work well (only one layer in the
preview) when there is a selection (though the actual transform works).
Also I am left to wonder how we should process this case of canvas
selection+transform on multi-layers. Indeed currently I am just creating
a floating selection (like we used to for the selection+transform case)
containing a transform result of the composited version of all selected
layers. This is a possible expected result, but another could be to get
several transformed layers (without composition). But then should the
"Floating Selection" concept allow for multiple Floating Selections?
Sooo many questions left to answer.
The PDB creates the array of drawables as a `const GimpItem *` and the
compiler does not like when we drop the const qualifier. So force this
const dropping with explicit type casting.
This fixes bugs introduced in commit a7c59277fb where I obviously didn't
properly checked all the places where gimp_selection_float() was used
after its parameters changed.
Color picking on a single layer still works as it used to. On multiple
layer, it will now pick on the composited color, similarly to sample
merged if only selected layers were made visible.
The PDB/libgimp function gimp_image_pick_color() is also updated to work
on multiple drawables too, giving the same ability to plug-ins (the only
call to this function in core plug-ins have been updated).
Multi selection actually only really matter when "Merge within active
groups only" option is checked, in which case we are able to merge
layers within several layer groups simultaneously, and end up with
multi-selected merged layers.
Also not sure why both layers-merge-layers and image-merge-layers exist,
as they are exactly the same (exact same callback called when
activated).
When several layers are selected, select their render, similar to how
"edit-copy-visible" would have copied an image with only these layers
made visible.
Also apply the same logics to PDB function gimp_edit_copy() which can
now be used on several drawables at once.
This commit just changes our saving API (i.e. the GimpSaveProcedure
class) to take an array of drawables as argument instead of a single
drawable.
It actually doesn't matter much for exporting as the whole API seems
more or less bogus there and all formats plug-ins mostly care only
whether they will merge/flatten all visible layers (the selected ones
don't really matter) or if the format supports layers of some sort. It
may be worth later strengthening a bit this whole logics, and maybe
allow partial exports for instance.
As for saving, it was not even looking at the passed GimpDrawable either
and was simply re-querying the active layer anyway.
Note that I don't implement the multi-selection saving in XCF yet in
this commit. I only updated the API. The reason is that the current
commit won't be backportable to gimp-2-10 because it is an API break. On
the other hand, the code to save multi-selection can still be backported
even though the save() API will only pass a single drawable (as I said
anyway, this argument was mostly bogus until now, hence it doesn't
matter much for 2.10 logics).
After much thought, tests and discussions with Aryeom, we decided adding
back an active item concept additionally to the selected items ones is a
bad idea as it makes only usage unecessarily complex.
We will just have selected layers. Some kind of operations will work
when more than one item (layers, channels, vectors) are selected while
others will require exacty one item.
In particular, let's replace instances of gimp_image_(s|g)et_active_*()
by corresponding gimp_image_(s|g)et_selected_*(). Also replace single
item in various undo classes by GList of items.
Also "active-*-changed" GimpImage signals are no more, fully replaced by
"selected-*s-changed".
This is still work-in-progress.
... (used to add one automatically)
In GimpFilterTool and gimp_drawable_apply_operation(), use
gimp_drawable_filter_set_add_alpha() to add an alpha channel when
applying an operation that specifies "needs-alpha" to a drawable
that can have alpha.
Don't disable gegl:color-to-alpha (which has "needs-alpha") when
the drawable doesn't have an alpha channel, if one can be added.
In plug_in_compat.pdb, when wrapping an op node inside a graph, set
the op node as the graph node's underlying operation. This allows
gimp_gegl_apply_operation() to perform certain optimizations.
In plug_in_compat.pdb, don't add child nodes to nodes containing an
op, since this turns them into graphs and discards the op.
Instead, add a new wrap_in_graph() helper function, which takes a
node op and wraps it in a simple "input -> op -> output" graph.
Use the graph as the container for child nodes, and as the node
passed to gimp_drawable_apply_operation(). (This is similar to
what we used to do before commit
afdd573136, except that we now pass
the parent node to gimp_drawable_apply_operation(), instead of the
op node).
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.
It's an ancient concept from ancient times when we didn't have URIs
and only filenames (not to speak of GFile), and actually even from
before the ancient time before that ancient time when we first had
ones and zeros, and only had zeros.
They are simply setting properties on GimpPlugInProcedures, just like
the other functions in gimpplugin-proc.[ch], so there is no reason to
have them elsewhere and with worse checks and error messages.
and call it gimp_pdb_set_proc_icon(). Change icon registration code in
libgimp/ and app/ so it's now possible to register icons for temporary
procedures.
- remove the menu path and image types from "gimp-plugins-query",
they are available via GimpProcedure, also reorder and rename
its remaining return values to make sense
- remove the "menu_path" parameter to gimp_proc_view_new(),
it can also ask GimpProcedure
- adapt plugin-browser to the new API and make it use GimpProcedure
- fix plugin-browser's tree view to show all menu hierarchies
completely, it was still expecting menu paths that contain
the menu label too
In the generated libgimp wrappers, we can't return object arrays
from a call to GIMP_VALUES_DUP_OBJECT_ARRAY() because it returns
a deep copy and adds a reference to all objects, which the caller
would have to unref.
But we want a shallow (transfer container) copy because we don't want
libgimp proxy objects to be refed or unrefed by any user code.
Therefore, add a HACK that simply memdup()s and returns the
GimpObjectArray's array memory, and leaves the contained object
pointers alone.
Add a show_all parameter to gimp_image_pick_color(), which, when
TRUE, allows picking colors outside the canvas bounds in sample-
merged mode. Forward the display's "show all" mode through this
parameter where applicable (in particular, in the color-picker tool
and the pointer dockable).
GimpDisplay contains only the ID logic and the "gimp" and "config"
pointers, and lives in the core.
GimpDisplayImpl is a subclass and contains all the actual display
stuff. The subclass is only an implementation detail and doesn't
appear in any API.
Remove all hacks which pass displays as gpointer, GObject or
GimpObject through the core, or even lookup its type by name,
just use GimpDisplay.
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/.
Same for returned value though it seems we have no function with none_ok
as return value. At least we have the rule in the generation script for
when this will happen.
