Subject: [PATCH] Add reference counting types
We have a common pattern for reference counting in GLib, but we always
implement it with ad hoc code. This is a good chance at trying to
standardise the implementation and make it public, so that other code
using GLib can take advantage of shared behaviour and semantics.
Instead of simply taking an integer variable, we should create type
aliases, to immediately distinguish the reference counting semantics of
the code; we can handle mixing atomic reference counting with a
non-atomic type (and vice versa) by using differently signed values for
the atomic and non-atomic cases.
The gatomicrefcount type is modelled on the Linux kernel refcount_t
type; the grefcount type is added to let single-threaded code bases to
avoid paying the price of atomic memory barriers on reference counting
operations.

+ * @Title: Reference counting
+ * @Short_description: Reference counting types and functions
+ *
+ * Reference counting is a garbage collection mechanism that is based on
+ * assigning a counter to a data type, or any memory area; the counter is
+ * increased whenever a new reference to that data type is acquired, and
+ * decreased whenever the reference is released. Once the last reference
+ * is released, the resources associated to that data type are freed.
+ *
+ * GLib uses reference counting in many of its data types, and provides
+ * the #grefcount and #gatomicrefcount types to implement safe and atomic
+ * reference counting semantics in new data types.
+ *
+ * It is important to note that #grefcount and #gatomicrefcount should be
+ * considered completely opaque types; you should always use the provided
+ * API to increase and decrease the counters, and you should never check
+ * their content directly, or compare their content with other values.
+ *
+ * Since: 2.58

Subject: [PATCH] Use macros for refcount types API
If we're using GCC we can use __extension__ to inline the grefcount and
gatomicrefcount API, and avoid the function call.
These macros are only enabled if G_DISABLE_CHECKS is defined, as they
remove critical warnings when the reference counters achieve saturation.
