GObject introspection is a middleware layer between C libraries (using
GObject) and language bindings. The C library can be scanned at compile
time and generate a metadata file, in addition to the actual native C
library. Then at runtime, language bindings can read this metadata and
automatically provide bindings to call into the C library.
