/** A Glib::Object property.
 *
 * This class wraps a GObject property, providing a C++ API to the GObject property
 * system, for use with classes derived from Glib::Object or Glib::Interface.
 *
 * A property is a value associated with each instance of a type and some
 * class data for each property:
 *  * Its unique name, used to identify the property.
 *  * A human-readable nick name.
 *  * A short description.
 *  * The default value and the minimum and maximum bounds (depending on the type of the property).
 *  * Flags, defining, among other things, whether the property can be read or written.
 *
 * This Property class currently supports the name, nick name, description default value and flags.
 * The minimum and maximum bounds are set to the full range of the value.
 * Because of internal implementation, flags shouldn't be set to values: Glib::PARAM_STATIC_NAME,
 * Glib::PARAM_STATIC_NICK, Glib::PARAM_STATIC_BLURB, Glib::PARAM_CONSTRUCT and
 * Glib::PARAM_CONSTRUCT_ONLY.
 *
 * The class information must be installed into the GObject system once per
 * property, but this is handled automatically.
 *
 * Each property belongs to an object, inheriting from Glib::Object.
 * A reference to the object must be passed to the constructor of the property.
 *
 * Each instance of a Glib::Object-derived type must construct the same properties
 * (same type, same name) in the same order. One way to achieve this is to
 * declare all properties as direct data members of the type.
 *
 * You may register new properties for your class (actually for the underlying GType)
 * simply by adding a Property instance as a class member.
 * However, your constructor must call the Glib::ObjectBase constructor with a new GType name,
 * in order to register a new GType.
 *
 * Example:
 * @code
 * class MyCellRenderer : public Gtk::CellRenderer
 * {
 * public:
 *   MyCellRenderer()
 *   :
 *   Glib::ObjectBase (typeid(MyCellRenderer)),
 *   Gtk::CellRenderer(),
 *   property_mybool  (*this, "mybool", true),
 *   property_myint_  (*this, "myint",    42)
 *   {}
 *
 *   virtual ~MyCellRenderer() {}
 *
 *   // Glib::Property<> can be public,
 *   Glib::Property<bool> property_mybool;
 *   // or private, and combined with Glib::PropertyProxy<>.
 *   Glib::PropertyProxy<int> property_myint() { return property_myint_.get_proxy(); }
 *
 * private:
 *   Glib::Property<int> property_myint_;
 * };
 * @endcode
