In the same way all GLib.Object-derived classes provided by the
generator have a GType static property (i.e. Gtk.Widget), we need
the same for the *Adapter classes, to access their GType without having
an instance of it. (The first use case would be GStreamerSharp's
Gst.Bin.IterateAllByInterface ().)
For this, we cannot simply add the property to all adapter classes
and be done, because it would clash with a property which is already
there, but is non-static, that has the same name and same value
(this property is needed for complying GInterfaceAdapter abstract
class), so we rename this property to GInterfaceGType because
using this name for the static one would not be consistent with the
rest of the classes generated which already provide the static one
with the name "GType".
GInterfaceInfo.Data was automatically set to be a GCHandle on the
interface adapter. But the generated GInterfaceInitHandlers were
not using it, just free'ing it.
But for the GInterface property support, the Data field is now used to
pass the class pointer, so casting it to a GCHandle to free it would
cause an exception.
We now don't assume anything about GInterfaceInfo.Data.
* glib/GInterfaceAdapter.cs: Fix a leak related to GCHandles not being freed.
Patch from Mike Kestner with a minor tweak by me. [Fixes#523306]
