Generates a textual representation of Icon that can be used for
serialization such as when passing Icon to a different process or
saving it to persistent storage. Use New_For_String to get Icon
back from the returned string.
The encoding of the returned string is proprietary to G_Icon except
in the following two cases:
If Icon is a GFileIcon, the returned string is a native path
(such as "/path/to/my icon.png") without escaping if the GFile for
Icon is a native file. If the file is not native, the returned
string is the result of g_file_get_uri() (such as
"sftp://path/to/my%%20icon.png").
If Icon is a GThemedIcon with exactly one name, the encoding is
simply the name (such as "network-server").
Generate a G_Icon instance from Str. This function can fail if
Str is not valid - see To_String for discussion. Returns
Null_G_Icon on failure.
If your application or library provides one or more G_Icon
implementations you need to ensure that each GType is registered
with the type system prior to calling New_For_String.
