+       Bug 559706 - Interface prerequisites

+       * common.mk: Dep on libgirepository.la for scanner libs so that
+       we rebuild things even if just gdump.c changes.
+       * girepository/gdump.c: Dump prerequisites.
+       * giscanner/ast.py: Add prerequisite list.
+       * giscanner/girparser.py: Parse them from gdump.
+       * giscanner/girwriter.py: Write them.
+       * giscanner/glibtransformer.py: Resolve them.
+       * tests/*: Test.
