g_signal_emit_by_name() is used to emit signals on ClutterContainer when
actors are removed or added. It happens to do various interface lookups
which are a bit unneccessary and can allocate memory.
Simply using emission wrappers makes all of that go away.

Clutter had support for internal children in its early revisions, but they
were deprecated for long time (commit f41061b8df, more than 7 years ago) and
no one is using them in both clutter and in gnome-shell.
So remove any alternative code path that uses internal children.

Some of the marshallers we generate in `clutter-marshal.list` are also
available in GLib, so we don't need to generate them ourselves. Even
more, by passing NULL to `g_signal_new` in these cases will actually
internally optimize this even more by also setting the valist
marshaller, which is a little bit faster than the regular marshalling
using `GValue` and libffi.

In cogl use cogl-config.h and in clutter use clutter-build-config.h. We
can't use clutter-config.h in clutter because its already used and
installed.
