The nice thing about this being available in parallel to GtkNotebook
is that we don't _have_ to replace all the functions at the same time,
it can be incremental. If we have a somewhat simpler tab bar in 3.22
that  only covers half of the use cases where we today use notebooks,
thats just fine - we can keep using notebooks until the replacement is
ready.
