GLib 2.26.0



Good day!

At long last, the GLib 2.25.x saga has come to an end.  You can grab
your 2.26.0 tarballs here:

        4c18e3aadb5b20acc7c0f7d3a77da8a2843b85a9fd73fd3aa360a7aea953e3b2  glib-2.26.0.tar.bz2

Of course, this is a stable release with an API promise.  No more of
those nasty slips and breaks!

We turn our focus to 2.27.x hacking now, but there will surely be a
2.26.1 along in the coming weeks with some fixups.

There are just a few final changes:
