+/* struct GVariant:
+ *
+ * There are two primary forms of GVariant instances: "serialised form"
+ * and "tree form".
+ *
+ * "serialised form": A serialised GVariant instance stores its value in
+ *                    the GVariant serialisation format.  All
+ *                    basic-typed instances (ie: non-containers) are in
+ *                    serialised format, as are some containers.
+ *
+ * "tree form": Some containers are in "tree form".  In this case,
+ *              instead of containing the serialised 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
+ * serialised form.  This happens, implicitly, if the serialised data is
+ * requested (eg: via g_variant_get_data()).  Serialised 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 serialised form for the instance, if it
+ *       is known.  If the instance is in serialised 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 serialised form or holding a value in
+ *           tree form.
+ *
+ *   .serialised: Only valid when the instance is in serialised form.
+ *
+ *                Since an instance can never transition away from
+ *                serialised form, once these fields are set, they will
+ *                never be changed.  It is therefore valid to access
+ *                them without holding a lock.
+ *
+ *     .buffer: the #GBuffer that contains the memory pointed to by
+ *              .data, or %NULL if .data is %NULL.  In the event that
+ *              the instance was deserialised from another instance,
+ *              then the buffer will be shared by both of them.  When
+ *              the instance is freed, this reference must be released
+ *              with g_buffer_unref().
+ *
+ *     .data: the serialised data (of size 'size') of the instance.
+ *            This pointer should not be freed or modified in any way.
+ *            #GBuffer is responsible for memory management.
+ *
+ *            This pointer may be %NULL in two cases:
+ *
+ *              - if the serialised size of the instance is 0
+ *
+ *              - if the instance is of a fixed-sized type and was
+ *                deserialised 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.
+ *
+ *   .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 serialised 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 serialised
+ *                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 serialised form.  If this
+ *                      flag is not set then the instance is in tree
+ *                      form.
+ *
+ *    STATE_TRUSTED: for serialised form instances, this means that the
+ *                   serialised 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
+ *                   serialised 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

+ *
+ * There are 3 functions here that work as a team with the serialiser to
+ * get things done.  g_variant_store() has a trivial role, but as a
+ * public API function, it has its definition elsewhere.
+ *
+ * Note that "serialisation" of an instance does not mean that the
+ * instance is converted to serialised form -- it means that the
+ * serialised 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 serialised form.
+ *
+ * We are only concerned here with container types since non-container
+ * instances are always in serialised form.  For these instances,
+ * storing their serialised form merely involves a memcpy().
+ *
+ * Serialisation is a two-step process.  First, the size of the
+ * serialised 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
+ *   serialiser code to determine the size.  The serialiser is passed
+ *   g_variant_fill_gvs() as a callback.
+ *
+ *   g_variant_fill_gvs() is called by the serialiser 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 serialiser 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 serialiser code to write
+ *   the bytes to the container.  The serialiser 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 serialised
+ *   form this means a memcpy() of the serialised 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:
