This adds much more comprehensive support for gobject-introspection
based bindings by registering all objects as fundamental types that
inherit from CoglObject, and all structs as boxed types.

Since the Cogl 1.18 branch is actively maintained in parallel with the
master branch; this is a counter part to commit 1b83ef938fc16b which
re-licensed the master branch to use the MIT license.
This re-licensing is a follow up to the proposal that was sent to the
Cogl mailing list:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2013-December/001465.html
Note: there was a copyright assignment policy in place for Clutter (and
therefore Cogl which was part of Clutter at the time) until the 11th of
June 2010 and so we only checked the details after that point (commit
0bbf50f905)
For each file, authors were identified via this Git command:
$ git blame -p -C -C -C20 -M -M10 0bbf50f905..HEAD
We received blanket approvals for re-licensing all Red Hat and Collabora
contributions which reduced how many people needed to be contacted
individually:
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2013-December/001470.html
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2014-January/001536.html
Individual approval requests were sent to all the other identified authors
who all confirmed the re-license on the Cogl mailinglist:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cogl/2014-January
As well as updating the copyright header in all sources files, the
COPYING file has been updated to reflect the license change and also
document the other licenses used in Cogl such as the SGI Free Software
License B, version 2.0 and the 3-clause BSD license.
This patch was not simply cherry-picked from master; but the same
methodology was used to check the source files.

gtk-doc is not smart enough to parse things like:
typedef struct

} CoglFoo;
but needs the '{' at the end of the first line.

To delimit which symbols were considered experimental we used to use
some preprocessor defines to gives experimental symbols an _EXP suffix
so that anyone monitoring the ABI for changes would easily be able to
discount changes made to clearly experimental functions.
These days we simply rely on the gtk-doc "Stability: unstable"
annotation to serve this purpose because changing the actual symbol name
made it slightly more awkward to debug Cogl using GDB and was an extra
mechanical step we decided we could do without.
This patch removes the last remaining _EXP suffix defines in Cogl
(cherry picked from commit 5a1c4a979e00accd492097cfb8f6a8d0fd8331bc)
This allows to track the number of objects allocated by Cogl. The
results are displayed on the standard output by calling :
cogl_debug_print_instances ();

This provides a mechanism for associating private data with any
CoglObject. We expect Clutter will use this to associate weak materials
with normal materials.
This patch makes it so that only the backwards compatibility
COGL_HANDLE_DEFINE macro defines a _cogl_xyz_handle_new function. The
new COGL_OBJECT_DEFINE macro only defines a _cogl_xyz_object_new
function.
CoglHandle is a common source of complaints and confusion because people
expect a "handle" to be some form of integer type with some indirection
to lookup the corresponding objects as opposed to a direct pointer.
This patch starts by renaming CoglHandle to CoglObject * and creating
corresponding cogl_object_ APIs to replace the cogl_handle ones.
The next step though is to remove all use of CoglHandle in the Cogl APIs
and replace with strongly typed pointer types such as CoglMaterial * or
CoglTexture * etc also all occurrences of COGL_INVALID_HANDLE can just
use NULL instead.
After this we will consider switching to GTypeInstance internally so we
can have inheritance for our types and hopefully improve how we handle
bindings.
Note all these changes will be done in a way that maintains the API and
ABI.
