* This function will be rarely used. It is used with pointer-based
* typedefs and non-pointer types where the value of the variable
* represents a resource that must be freed. Two examples are #GStrv
* and file descriptors.
*
* @none specifies the "none" value for the type in question. It is
* probably something like %NULL or `-1`. If the variable is found to
* contain this value then the free function will not be called.
*
* |[
* G_DEFINE_AUTO_CLEANUP_FREE_FUNC(GStrv, g_strfreev, NULL)
* ]|
*
* This macro should be used unconditionally; it is a no-op on compilers
* where cleanup is not supported.
*
* Since: 2.44
