In a separate branch, this test has become quite complicated and
involves multiple files and its own configure options. Instead of
cluttering up the clutter source tree it has now been moved to its own
repo at:

We currently check for the IN_DESTRUCTION flag inside the
add_child_internal() function.
This check disallows calling methods that change the stacking order
within the destruction sequence, by triggering a critical warning first,
and leaving the actor in an undefined state, which then ends up being
caught by an assertion.
The reproducible sequence is:
- actor gets destroyed;
- another actor, linked to the first, will try to change the
stacking order of the first actor;
- changing the stacking order is a composite operation composed
by the following steps:
1. ref() the child;
2. remove_child_internal(), which removes the reference;
3. add_child_internal(), which adds a reference;
- the state of the actor is not changed between (2) and (3), as
it could be an expensive recomputation;
- if (3) bails out, then the actor is in an undefined state, but
still alive;
- the destruction sequence terminates, but the actor is unparented
while its state indicates being parented instead.
- assertion failure.
The obvious fix would be to decompose each set_child_*_sibling() method
into proper remove_child()/add_child(), with state validation; this may
cause excessive work, though, and trigger a cascade of other bugs in
code that assumes that a change in the stacking order is an atomic
operation.
Another potential fix is to just remove this check here, and let code
doing stacking order changes inside the destruction sequence of an actor
continue doing the work.
The third fix is to silently bail out early from every
set_child_*_sibling() and set_child_at_index() method, and avoid doing
work.
I have a preference for the second solution, since it involves the least
amount of work, and the least amount of code duplication.

This solves a crash on GNOME Shell, as compute the extents
for some StWidgets could lead to call st_widget_get_theme_node,
and it is a fatal error to call this on a widget that it not
beed added to a stage.
Make it like the clutter-version.h.in template. Since we aren't having
Windows-specific items in here (such as CLUTTER_FLAVOUR), perhaps we
could get the dllexport stuff in clutter-version.h.in, where it can be
used when necessary, and this file would be gone.
GLib introduced macros that allows defining the lower and upper bounds
of the API to be used by application code.
The lower bound allows to define the minimum version that will trigger
deprecation warnings; the upper bound defines the maximum version that
will trigger compiler warnings for unavailable symbols.
This scheme allows gradually porting application code to a new version
of the API, especially in case of resynchronization after multiple
development cycles.
It's the conformance test suite: there's no need to namespace the files,
just like there's no need to namespace the units.
This commit does not change the Cogl tests: they will be moved to Cogl
over time, and it's easier to do if we leave them as they are.
Now that ClutterActor has a default paint volume, subclasses may wish
to retrieve it without chaining up to the parent's implementation of
the get_paint_volume() function.
The get_default_paint_volume() returns a ClutterPaintVolume pointer
to the paint volume as computed by the default implementation of the
get_paint_volume() virtual function; it can only be used immediately,
as it's not guaranteed to survive across multiple frames.
Creating PaintVolume instances is not possible, and it's not recommended
anyway. It is, though, necessary to union paint volumes, especially with
2D boxes, in some cases.
Clutter should provide a simple convenience function that allows
unioning volumes to boxes in a moderately efficient way.

It should be possible to adapt the abicheck.sh script so that it
actually tests the ABI of libclutter-1.0.so taking into account
the backends that were compiled into Clutter, and avoid expected
failures if Clutter was not built with a specific backend.
