* Many GObject casts when the required type is actually gpointer
* Some GtkWidget casts in the same situation, or when the object is
  already a GtkWidget
* Factorizes some GObject casts in `mousepad/mousepad-private.h` macros
* GSourceFunc casts (cast parameter in the function body instead)

If regex search is enabled at startup, a useless and expensive search
can run in the background, when the file is loaded in the buffer. To
prevent this, the "regex-enabled" setting isn't bound at startup as
others, but bound/unbound with the "highlight" property when the search
widgets are shown/hidden.

This is a complement to the workaround already implemented in !58 to
avoid prohibitive computation times in some situations.

This also reinforces existence tests before collecting asynchronous
search results, and removes inappropriate use of a warning function.

A minimal fix in view of Mousepad 0.5.1, which might not include a
larger work in progress, consisting of an extended use of GFile (thus
avoiding many of these conversions).

Fixes #81.

An aesthetic complement to !58.

See !63 for more details.

To prioritize backward compatibility over naming consistency, and since
it is possible to circumscribe this inconsistency quite closely.

By the way, avoid using `g_utf8_validate_len()`, only available since
GLib 2.60.

This is an oversight in !48, see

This allows to increase/decrease the font size from a keybinding
(Ctrl +/- by default), or using Ctrl + mouse wheel. This font size
change is temporary, reset by a settings change, and applies only to
the active view.

Closes #46 and #54, see !60 for more details.

This is a preliminary commit before adding a new feature, allowing to
change the font size from keyboard/mouse.

* Replace "font-name" with "font" ("font-name" is deprecated as
  GtkFontButton property since GTK+ 3.22, and quite confusing since
  it's actually some kind of font description).
* Make properties only writable, since it's the only way they are
  accessed in the code.
* Clarify the way the font is set, depending on whether the default
  font is used or not.

See !60 for more details.

* Use `g_printerr()` only in command line context.
* Don't translate messages from `G_LOG_LEVEL_WARNING` and beyond.

See !61 for more details.

This activates a spinner when a search is in progress, instead of an
outdated or empty occurrences count, both in the search bar and the
replace dialog.

See !58 for more details.

This causes the search bar to follow tab switching, as is already the
case with the replace dialog. If both widgets are used at the same
time, the replace dialog takes precedence over the search bar to
prevent conflicts.

See !58 for more details.

This makes the occurrences count appear in the search bar, instead of
the "Replace All" button. This one is moved in the menubar, with the
other search-related items.

See !58 for more details.

This switches to asynchronous search, so as not to block the UI when
searching in big files and/or with regex search enabled. This is almost
required when the search mode is "find as you type", which is the case
for Mousepad.

This also improves the search widgets behavior when documents change
(from the buffer or tab), and the consistency between search widgets
when used together, within the limits of what is possible.

Codewise, this makes increased use of signals to connect the different
widgets involved in the search, from the search bar and replace dialog
to the documents, through the window and back. Some precautions are
also taken to avoid prohibitive computation times in some situations,
because of a GtkSourceView issue.

See !58 for more details.

This last commit of the "GMenuModel-* binding" series adds a
`mousepad_window_toolbar_new_from_model()` function, in echo to the
`gtk_menu_bar_new_from_model()` function.

The goal is to build the same kind of binding, using again the
"items-changed" GMenuModel signal, and taking advantage of the use of
shared menu items introduced in the previous commit.

See !50 for more details.

This GMenuModel-GMenuModel binding not only involves the use of the
"items-changed" signal, but also a trick in the way to write the
GtkBuilder menu files (`mousepad/resources/gtk/*.ui`).

The goal is to remove duplicates in these files, by defining a menu
item only once (with all its attributes: label, icon, tooltip, action,
accel, etc.), and then reusing it in any menu where it should appear,
using a syntax close to the expected but missing
`<item id="my-already-defined-item"/>`.

Downstream, this simplifies the synchronization of the different
widgets that use these shared menu items, and makes the overall
code easier to maintain.

See !50 for more details.

This is a preliminary commit before adding a binding between different
kinds of GMenuModels.

See !50 for more details.

Using the "items-changed" GMenuModel signal, this adds an additional
GMenuModel-GtkMenu binding (they are already bind in
`gtk_menu_bar_new_from_model()`), to automatize a bit more tooltip
updates, and localize a bit more this process in
`mousepad_window_menu_set_tooltips()`.

See !50 for more details.

This adds the ability to display only the white spaces at the beginning
of the line, the end of the line or between words (or any combination
of these three possibilities), accessible only from GSettings.

To do this, a property is added to the application that is synchronized
with GSettings on the one hand, and with the different views on the
other hand.

Closes #44, see !46 for more details.

Using the correspondence between GAction and GSettings (common names,
common use of GVariant), this commit globally simplifies action
handling. In particular, setting-related actions are transferred from
the window level to the application level, resulting in only three
generic handlers to bind an action to its setting.

As `mousepad/resources/ui/mousepad-prefs-dialog.ui` was already heavily
impacted by these changes, this also adds some cleaning (consistency
and/or updating of the notations used), and incorporates some object
property bindings currently made in `mousepad/mousepad-prefs-dialog.c`.

See !48 for more details.
