/* GRegistryBackend implementation notes:
 *
 *   - All settings are stored under the path:
 *       HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GSettings\
 *     This means all settings are per-user. Permissions and system-wide
 *     defaults are not implemented and will probably always be out of scope of
 *     the Windows port of GLib.
 *
 *   - The registry type system is limited. Most GVariant types are stored as
 *     literals via g_variant_print/parse(). Strings are stored without the
 *     quotes that GVariant requires. Integer types are stored as native
 *     REG_DWORD or REG_QWORD. The REG_MULTI_SZ (string array) type could be
 *     used to avoid flattening container types.
 *
 *   - Notifications are handled; the change event is watched for in a separate
 *     thread (Windows does not provide a callback API) which sends them with
 *     g_idle_add to the GLib main loop. The threading is done using Windows
 *     API functions, so there is no dependence on GThread.
 *
 *   - Windows doesn't tell us which value has changed. This means we have to
 *     maintain a cache of every stored value so we can play spot the
 *     difference. This should not be a performance issue because if you are
 *     storing thousands of values in GSettings, you are probably using it
 *     wrong.
 *
 *   - The cache stores the value as a registry type. Because many variants are
 *     stored as string representations, values which have changed equality but
 *     not equivalence may trigger spurious change notifications. GSettings
 *     users must already deal with this possibility and converting all data to
 *     GVariant values would be more effort.
 *
 *   - Because we have to cache every registry value locally, reads are done
 *     from the cache rather than directly from the registry. Writes update
 *     both. This means that the backend will not work if the watch thread is
 *     not running. A GSettings object always subscribes to changes so we can
 *     be sure that the watch thread will be running, but if for some reason
 *     the backend is being used directly you should bear that in mind.
 *
 *   - The registry is totally user-editable, so we are very forgiving about
 *     errors in the data we get.
 *
 *   - The registry uses backslashes as path separators. GSettings keys only
 *     allow [A-Za-z\-] so no escaping is needed. No attempt is made to solve
 *     clashes between keys differing only in case.
 *
 *   - RegCreateKeyW is used - We should always make the UTF-8 -> UTF-16
 *     conversion ourselves to avoid problems when the system language changes.
 *
 *   - The Windows registry has the following limitations: a key may not exceed
 *     255 characters, an entry's value may not exceed 16,383 characters, and
 *     all the values of a key may not exceed 65,535 characters.
 *
 *   - Terminology:
 *     * in GSettings, a 'key' is eg. /desktop/gnome/background/primary-color
 *     * in the registry, the 'key' is path, which contains some 'values'.
 *     * in this file, any GSettings key is a 'key', while a registry key is
 *       termed a 'path', which contains 'values'.
 *
 *   - My set of tests for this backend are currently at:
 *       http://gitorious.org/gsettings-gtk/gsettings-test.git
 *
 *   - There is an undocumented function in ntdll.dll which might be more
 *     than RegNotifyChangeKeyValue(), NtNotifyChangeKey:
 *       http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/ntdll/reg.c#L618
 *       http://undocumented.ntinternals.net/UserMode/Undocumented%20Functions/NT%20Objects/Key/NtNotifyChangeKey.html
 *
 *   - If updating the cache ever becomes a performance issue it may make sense
 *     to use a red-black tree, but I don't currently think it's worth the time
