GTK4: Add experimental support for GTK4... This is in progress and doesn't
compile yet. GTK4 support will likely be less full than GTK3 due to
architectural decisions by the GTK team. Certain features have been removed
with no replacements, such as status icon support. Additionally all of the
thread safety has been removed and everything MUST run on the main thread.
I will likely implement a similar solution to what I did on MacOS where
threads will call into the main thread to do API calls, passing the
arguments between threads. Copied from GTK3 removing all existing now dead
thread safety, all deprecated code and everything supporting earlier
versions of GTK3. GTK4 is not available in any mainstream distributions
yet... hoping to have it at least functional by the time there are any.

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.
