[glib/wip/gproperty: 14/28] gproperty: Allow explicit setters to skip notification

    gproperty: Allow explicit setters to skip notification
    
    Explicit setter functions passed when creating a new GProperty should be
    able to skip automatic notification; we simply ask them to return a
    boolean value: TRUE if the value was changed, and FALSE otherwise. This
    allows writing an explicit setter function that only has to deal with
    setting the value and handle its side effects, instead of a more complex
    one that has to acquire and release the property lock and emit the
    notification by itself.
