Sounds good. I think it would be best to first run a script on all C sources,
like

class -> klass
gint -> int
guint -> unsigned int
gdouble -> double
gfloat -> float
gchar -> char
guchar -> unsigned char

(did I forget anything?). I can make a merge request for that.

Once this is done, manual porting can do the rest, but that should be done in
seperate commits, to make it easy to review what was manually changed between
the C -> C++ transition.
