------- Additional Comments from Marco Barisione
<marco.barisione at collabora.co.uk>
- Add GOwnPtr, it behaves like OwnPtr but frees the memory using g_free (or
different functions if the glib structs need to be freed with something else).
- Add GRefPtr, it behaves like RefPtr but uses g_object_ref/unref (or other
functions if needed).
- I didn't add a GPassRefPtr as its use would be very limited.
- The private data of GObjects exported by WebKit GTK are now correctly
initialised and destroyed. I had to use placement new and calling directly the
destructor as the memory is allocated and destroyed by GLib so we cannot call
new/delete.
- Switched the existing code to use the new smart pointers.
