GTK4: Move a few more functions into thread safety. Add API to functions that were missing it. API is used for speficying calling convention, that isn't usually required on Unix, but should be there for future use. The thread safety macros will automatically add API, so just required to add it to ones not in the thread safety system.

-- Special notes for version 3.1 --
Version 2.4 has started a transition to Unicode on OS/2. Warp 4 and 
later have fairly decent support for UTF-8 via codepage 1208, however 
there are some known input problems, which shall be worked around
in future versions.  For English or non-input applications Unicode
is the recommended version, however for applications that have not 
been converted to UTF-8 or which are experiencing input problems,
a non-Unicode version of the DLL is included.
