Also fixes the passing of the resource param definitions through PDB.
There was some weird assumption, with a comment, in commit 73733335c8
that this was unneeded, which meant that we were not able to properly
recreate the right param spec over the wire.
This abstract spec type is basically a GParamSpecObject with a default
value. It will be used by various object spec with default values, such
as GimpParamSpecColor, GimpParamSpecUnit and all GimpParamSpecResource
subtypes. Also it has a duplicate() class method so that every spec type
can implement the proper way to duplicate itself.
This fixes the fact that in gimp_config_param_spec_duplicate(), all
unknown object spec types (because they are implemented in libgimp,
which is invisible to libgimpconfig) are just copied as
GParamSpecObject, hence losing default values and other parameters.
As a second enhancement, it also makes it easier to detect the object
spec types for which we have default value support in
gimp_config_reset_properties().
As a side fix, gimp_param_spec_color() now just always duplicates the
passed default color, making it hence much easier to avoid bugs when
reusing a GeglColor.
Now you can declare a default value when declaring resource arguments to
a PDB procedure.
Add default behavior to GimpParamSpecResource.
Add field and override g_param_spec_value_set_default.
Fix the plugins that have resource arguments.
Some plugins temporarily use a hardcoded default instead of declared default.
ScriptFu plugins, TODO.
Misc fix to the test plugin for this case: test-dialog.py.

TODO 10822 Lava plugin issue depends on this.
Note film.c fixed but still doesn't work.
This fixes all our GObject Introspection issues with GimpUnit which was
both an enum and an int-derived type of user-defined units *completing*
the enum values. GIR clearly didn't like this!
Now GimpUnit is a proper class and units are unique objects, allowing to
compare them with an identity test (i.e. `unit == gimp_unit_pixel ()`
tells us if unit is the pixel unit or not), which makes it easy to use,
just like with int, yet adding also methods, making for nicer
introspected API.
As an aside, this also fixes#10738, by having all the built-in units
retrievable even if libgimpbase had not been properly initialized with
gimp_base_init().
I haven't checked in details how GIR works to introspect, but it looks
like it loads the library to inspect and runs functions, hence
triggering some CRITICALS because virtual methods (supposed to be
initialized with gimp_base_init() run by libgimp) are not set. This new
code won't trigger any critical because the vtable method are now not
necessary, at least for all built-in units.
Note that GimpUnit is still in libgimpbase. It could have been moved to
libgimp in order to avoid any virtual method table (since we need to
keep core and libgimp side's units in sync, PDB is required), but too
many libgimpwidgets widgets were already using GimpUnit. And technically
most of GimpUnit logic doesn't require PDB (only the creation/sync
part). This is one of the reasons why user-created GimpUnit list is
handled and stored differently from other types of objects.
Globally this simplifies the code a lot too and we don't need separate
implementations of various utils for core and libgimp, which means less
prone to errors.
...to path.
Changes the names of
gimp_vectors_* () API to
gimp_path[s]_* (). Renames related files
to [path] instead of [vectors], along with
relevant enums and functions.
This commit renames the GimpVectors
object to GimpPath in both app/core and
in libgimp. It also renames the files
to gimppath.[ch] and updates the relevant
build and translation files.
There are still outstanding gimp_vectors_* ()
functions on the app side that need to be renamed
in a subsequent commit.
Also:
- renaming gimp_layer_group_new() to gimp_group_layer_new() in order to keep the
same name as in core code (i.e. GimpGroupLayer, not GimpLayerGroup).
- renaming gimp_image_merge_layer_group() to gimp_group_layer_merge()
- new functions: gimp_procedure_add_group_layer_argument(),
gimp_procedure_add_group_layer_aux_argument() and
gimp_procedure_add_group_layer_return_value().
This can be tested, e.g. in Python with these calls:
```py
i = Gimp.get_images()[0]
g = Gimp.GroupLayer.new(i, "hello")
i.insert_layer(g, None, 1)
g2 = Gimp.GroupLayer.new(i, "world")
i.insert_layer(g2, g, 1)
g.merge()
```
This was work started long ago, stored in an old stash which I finally
finish now! :-)
Same for gimp_procedure_add_aux_argument() and gimp_procedure_add_return_value().
We now have specific public functions for every supported type and it's
in fact much better to use them. The generic functions gave the feeling
that we could use any GParamSpec as procedure argument, whereas we in
fact depend on what the PDB support, and only these subtypes.
In order for Python plug-ins to be able
to create custom parameters like
GeglColor and GimpChoice, we need to
create actual functions rather than
using macros. A subsequent commit
will update all plug-ins to use them.
