/* struct GVariant:
*
* There are two primary forms of GVariant instances: "serialized form"
* and "tree form".
*
* "serialized form": A serialized GVariant instance stores its value in
* the GVariant serialization format. All
* basic-typed instances (ie: non-containers) are in
* serialized format, as are some containers.
*
* "tree form": Some containers are in "tree form". In this case,
* instead of containing the serialized data for the
* container, the instance contains an array of pointers to
* the child values of the container (thus forming a tree).
*
* It is possible for an instance to transition from tree form to
* serialized form. This happens, implicitly, if the serialized data is
* requested (eg: via g_variant_get_data()). Serialized form instances
* never transition into tree form.
*
*
* The fields of the structure are documented here:
*
* type_info: this is a reference to a GVariantTypeInfo describing the
* type of the instance. When the instance is freed, this
* reference must be released with g_variant_type_info_unref().
*
* The type_info field never changes during the life of the
* instance, so it can be accessed without a lock.
*
* size: this is the size of the serialized form for the instance, if it
* is known. If the instance is in serialized form then it is, by
* definition, known. If the instance is in tree form then it may
* be unknown (in which case it is -1). It is possible for the
* size to be known when in tree form if, for example, the user
* has called g_variant_get_size() without calling
* g_variant_get_data(). Additionally, even when the user calls
* g_variant_get_data() the size of the data must first be
* determined so that a large enough buffer can be allocated for
* the data.
*
* Once the size is known, it can never become unknown again.
* g_variant_ensure_size() is used to ensure that the size is in
* the known state -- it calculates the size if needed. After
* that, the size field can be accessed without a lock.
*
* contents: a union containing either the information associated with
* holding a value in serialized form or holding a value in
* tree form.
*
* .serialised: Only valid when the instance is in serialized form.
*
* Since an instance can never transition away from
* serialized form, once these fields are set, they will
* never be changed. It is therefore valid to access
* them without holding a lock.
*
* .bytes: the #GBytes that contains the memory pointed to by
* .data, or %NULL if .data is %NULL. In the event that
* the instance was deserialized from another instance,
* then the bytes will be shared by both of them. When
* the instance is freed, this reference must be released
* with g_bytes_unref().
*
* .data: the serialized data (of size 'size') of the instance.
* This pointer should not be freed or modified in any way.
* #GBytes is responsible for memory management.
*
* This pointer may be %NULL in two cases:
*
* - if the serialized size of the instance is 0
*
* - if the instance is of a fixed-sized type and was
* deserialized out of a corrupted container such that
* the container contains too few bytes to point to the
* entire proper fixed-size of this instance. In this
* case, 'size' will still be equal to the proper fixed
* size, but this pointer will be %NULL. This is exactly
* the reason that g_variant_get_data() sometimes returns
* %NULL. For all other calls, the effect should be as
* if .data pointed to the appropriate number of nul
* bytes.
*
* .ordered_offsets_up_to: If ordered_offsets_up_to == n this means that all
* the frame offsets up to and including the frame
* offset determining the end of element n are in
* order. This guarantees that the bytes of element
* n don't overlap with any previous element.
*
* For trusted data this is set to G_MAXSIZE and we
* don't check that the frame offsets are in order.
*
* Note: This doesn't imply the offsets are good in
* any way apart from their ordering. In particular
* offsets may be out of bounds for this value or
* may imply that the data overlaps the frame
* offsets themselves.
*
* This field is only relevant for arrays of non
* fixed width types and for tuples.
*
* .checked_offsets_up_to: Similarly to .ordered_offsets_up_to, this stores
* the index of the highest element, n, whose frame
* offsets (and all the preceding frame offsets)
* have been checked for validity.
*
* It is always the case that
* .checked_offsets_up_to ≥ .ordered_offsets_up_to.
*
* If .checked_offsets_up_to == .ordered_offsets_up_to,
* then a bad offset has not been found so far.
*
* If .checked_offsets_up_to > .ordered_offsets_up_to,
* then a bad offset has been found at
* (.ordered_offsets_up_to + 1).
*
* This field is only relevant for arrays of non
* fixed width types and for tuples.
*
* .tree: Only valid when the instance is in tree form.
*
* Note that accesses from other threads could result in
* conversion of the instance from tree form to serialized form
* at any time. For this reason, the instance lock must always
* be held while performing any operations on 'contents.tree'.
*
* .children: the array of the child instances of this instance.
* When the instance is freed (or converted to serialized
* form) then each child must have g_variant_unref()
* called on it and the array must be freed using
* g_free().
*
* .n_children: the number of items in the .children array.
*
* state: a bitfield describing the state of the instance. It is a
* bitwise-or of the following STATE_* constants:
*
* STATE_LOCKED: the instance lock is held. This is the bit used by
* g_bit_lock().
*
* STATE_SERIALISED: the instance is in serialized form. If this
* flag is not set then the instance is in tree
* form.
*
* STATE_TRUSTED: for serialized form instances, this means that the
* serialized data is known to be in normal form (ie:
* not corrupted).
*
* For tree form instances, this means that all of the
* child instances in the contents.tree.children array
* are trusted. This means that if the container is
* serialized then the resulting data will be in
* normal form.
*
* If this flag is unset it does not imply that the
* data is corrupted. It merely means that we're not
* sure that it's valid. See g_variant_is_trusted().
*
* STATE_FLOATING: if this flag is set then the object has a floating
* reference. See g_variant_ref_sink().
*
* ref_count: the reference count of the instance
*
* depth: the depth of the GVariant in a hierarchy of nested containers,
* increasing with the level of nesting. The top-most GVariant has depth
* zero. This is used to avoid recursing too deeply and overflowing the
* stack when handling deeply nested untrusted serialized GVariants.

/* This begins the main body of the recursive serializer.
*
* There are 3 functions here that work as a team with the serializer to
* get things done. g_variant_store() has a trivial role, but as a
* public API function, it has its definition elsewhere.
*
* Note that "serialization" of an instance does not mean that the
* instance is converted to serialized form -- it means that the
* serialized form of an instance is written to an external buffer.
* g_variant_ensure_serialised() (which is not part of this set of
* functions) is the function that is responsible for converting an
* instance to serialized form.
*
* We are only concerned here with container types since non-container
* instances are always in serialized form. For these instances,
* storing their serialized form merely involves a memcpy().
*
* Serialization is a two-step process. First, the size of the
* serialized data must be calculated so that an appropriately-sized
* buffer can be allocated. Second, the data is written into the
* buffer.
*
* Determining the size:
* The process of determining the size is triggered by a call to
* g_variant_ensure_size() on a container. This invokes the
* serializer code to determine the size. The serializer is passed
* g_variant_fill_gvs() as a callback.
*
* g_variant_fill_gvs() is called by the serializer on each child of
* the container which, in turn, calls g_variant_ensure_size() on
* itself and fills in the result of its own size calculation.
*
* The serializer uses the size information from the children to
* calculate the size needed for the entire container.
*
* Writing the data:
* After the buffer has been allocated, g_variant_serialise() is
* called on the container. This invokes the serializer code to write
* the bytes to the container. The serializer is, again, passed
* g_variant_fill_gvs() as a callback.
*
* This time, when g_variant_fill_gvs() is called for each child, the
* child is given a pointer to a sub-region of the allocated buffer
* where it should write its data. This is done by calling
* g_variant_store(). In the event that the instance is in serialized
* form this means a memcpy() of the serialized data into the
* allocated buffer. In the event that the instance is in tree form
* this means a recursive call back into g_variant_serialise().
*
*
* The forward declaration here allows corecursion via callback:

* g_variant_ref_sink:
* @value: a #GVariant
*
* #GVariant uses a floating reference count system. All functions with
* names starting with `g_variant_new_` return floating
* references.
*
* Calling g_variant_ref_sink() on a #GVariant with a floating reference
* will convert the floating reference into a full reference. Calling
* g_variant_ref_sink() on a non-floating #GVariant results in an
* additional normal reference being added.
*
* In other words, if the @value is floating, then this call "assumes
* ownership" of the floating reference, converting it to a normal
* reference. If the @value is not floating, then this call adds a
* new normal reference increasing the reference count by one.
*
* All calls that result in a #GVariant instance being inserted into a
* container will call g_variant_ref_sink() on the instance. This means
* that if the value was just created (and has only its floating
* reference) then the container will assume sole ownership of the value
* at that point and the caller will not need to unreference it. This
* makes certain common styles of programming much easier while still
* maintaining normal refcounting semantics in situations where values
* are not floating.
*
* Returns: the same @value

* g_variant_take_ref:

* If @value is floating, sink it. Otherwise, do nothing.
*
* Typically you want to use g_variant_ref_sink() in order to
* automatically do the correct thing with respect to floating or
* non-floating references, but there is one specific scenario where
* this function is helpful.
*
* The situation where this function is helpful is when creating an API
* that allows the user to provide a callback function that returns a
* #GVariant. We certainly want to allow the user the flexibility to
* return a non-floating reference from this callback (for the case
* where the value that is being returned already exists).
*
* At the same time, the style of the #GVariant API makes it likely that
* for newly-created #GVariant instances, the user can be saved some
* typing if they are allowed to return a #GVariant with a floating
* reference.
*
* Using this function on the return value of the user's callback allows
* the user to do whichever is more convenient for them. The caller
* will always receives exactly one full reference to the value: either
* the one that was returned in the first place, or a floating reference
* that has been converted to a full reference.
*
* This function has an odd interaction when combined with
* g_variant_ref_sink() running at the same time in another thread on
* the same #GVariant instance. If g_variant_ref_sink() runs first then
* the result will be that the floating reference is converted to a hard
* reference. If g_variant_take_ref() runs first then the result will
* be that the floating reference is converted to a hard reference and
* an additional reference on top of that one is added. It is best to
* avoid this situation.
*
* Returns: the same @value
