It is better to have a consistent API and the fact is that most
getter/setter functions use the _get|set_ naming, but these didn't.
I wondered if this was such a great idea to rename these anyway because
even though we are breaking API in GIMP 3, is it the best idea to rename
when no functional change happened? After discussing with Wormnest, we
still agreed it was still better to go for consistency rather than
regret later (and be stuck with these names for many more years).
Also this fixes these warnings:

It isn't being used by any plug-in or any code in GIMP at all even.
Let's get rid of it while we can still break API, so we can cut down on
all the complexity of the gimp-param stuff a bit.
Plug-ins that work from different bindings probably want to use their
own list-type to specify arguments, rather than working with a more
cumbersome `GimpValueArray`.
This new API should make it less verbose. For example:
```
args = Gimp.ValueArray.new(5)
args.insert(0, GObject.Value(Gimp.RunMode, Gimp.RunMode.NONINTERACTIVE))
args.insert(1, GObject.Value(Gimp.Image, image))
args.insert(2, GObject.Value(Gimp.Drawable, mask))
args.insert(3, GObject.Value(GObject.TYPE_INT, int(time.time())))
args.insert(4, GObject.Value(GObject.TYPE_DOUBLE, turbulence))
Gimp.get_pdb().run_procedure('plug-in-plasma', args)
```
becomes
```
Gimp.get_pdb().run_procedure('plug-in-plasma', [
GObject.Value(Gimp.RunMode, Gimp.RunMode.NONINTERACTIVE),
GObject.Value(Gimp.Image, image),
GObject.Value(Gimp.Drawable, mask),
GObject.Value(GObject.TYPE_INT, int(time.time())),
GObject.Value(GObject.TYPE_DOUBLE, turbulence),
])
```
It's just too weird to be public. Remove its properties from the wire
protocol and from pluginrc. Instead, have all GParamSpecs' flags on
the wire and in pluginrc, so we can use stuff like
GIMP_PARAM_NO_VALIDATE.
Port the remaining few places to GIMP_PROC_ARG_STRING().
I'm sure something is broken now wrt UTF-8 validation,
will add tighter checks in the next commit.
and make them build again without any wrong symbols.
This does not enable the devel-docs build yet, I'll fix
module by module before enabling the build again.
