Overview of changes in GLib 2.71.2

• Rework glib-compile-resources to output compiler-specific files to reduce
  compilation time; see the new --compiler option (work by Emmanuele Bassi) (#2492)

• Add a cross-platform API for aligned memory allocations (g_aligned_alloc(),
  g_aligned_alloc0() and g_aligned_free()) (work by Emmanuele Bassi) (#2574)

• Deprecate force_posix_threads configure option, since it was a workaround
  for static linking on Windows (#2592)

• Add GBindingGroup and GSignalGroup APIs (work by Christian Hergert and
  Garrett Regier) (!2235)

• Implement FD remapping support for g_spawn_async_with_pipes_and_fds() on
  Windows (work by Marc-André Lureau) (!2458)
