teco-gtk-label.gob to plain C
* Using modern GObject idioms and macros greatly reduces the necessary boilerplate code.
* The plain C versions of our GObject classes are now "final" (cannot be derived)
This means we can hide the instance structures from the headers and avoid using
explicit private fields.
* Avoids some deprecation warnings when building the Gtk UI.
* GOB2 is apparently no longer maintained, so this seems like a good idea in the long run.
* The most important reason however is that there is no precompiled GOB2 for Windows
which prevents compilation on native Windows hosts, eg. during nightly builds.
This is even more important as Gtk+3 is distributed on Windows practically
exclusively via MSYS.
(ArchLinux contains MinGW gtk3 packages as well, so cross-compiling from ArchLinux
would have been an alternative.)

* Added a Freedesktop file - only as part of the debian package yet.
`make install` won't install a Desktop file since it would have to be
generated.
* Just like when installing manually, you can have a Curses and Gtk installation
side by side using the same .teco_ini.
* Common data between the Curses UI (sciteco-curses) and Gtk UI are in a new
architecture-independant package sciteco-common.
* The Gtk+ binaries are prefixed with `g` (gsciteco, gtedoc.tes, ggrosciteco.tes).
* Debian source and binary packages can be built using `./distribute.mk debian`
as usual.
It should also be possible to push everything to the PPA for the next release,
although that is not yet tested.

* required a new changelog entry since the target release is now v2.0.0
* Glib dependency bumped

* the new "?" (help) command can be used to look up
help topics.
* help topics are index from $SCITECOPATH/women/*.woman.tec
files.
* looking up a help topic opens the corresponding "womanpage"
and jumps to the position of the topic (it acts like an anchor
into the document).
* styling is performed by *.woman.tec files.
* Setting up the Scintilla view and munging the *.tec file
is performed by the new "woman.tes" lexer.
On supporting UIs (Gtk), womanpages are shown in a variable-width
font.
* Woman pages are usually not hand-written, but generated from manpages.
A special Groff post-processor grosciteco has been introduced for this
purpose. It is much like grotty, but can output SciTECO macros for styling
the document (ie. the *.woman.tec files).
It is documented in its own man-page.
* grosciteco also introduces sciteco.tmac - special Troff macros
for controlling the formatting of the document in SciTECO.
It also defines .SCITECO_TOPIC which can be used to mark up
help topics/terms in Troff markup.
* Woman pages are generated/formatted by grosciteco at compile-time, so
they will work on platforms without Groff (ie. as on windows).
* Groff has been added as a hard compile-time requirement.
* The sciteco(1) and sciteco(7) man pages have been augmented with
help topic anchors.

* it also sets the compatibility level to 7 which was required
when building for Ubuntu Lucid. This version cannot be supported
however since its libglib version is too old.

* prepared for upload to Ubuntu PPA
* debian package will not be in autoconf source distro
* will only build as a non-native package based on a source bundle
that contains scintilla, scinterm and has patches applied
