/**
 * GtkListItemFactory:
 *
 * A `GtkListItemFactory` creates widgets for the items taken from a `GListModel`.
 *
 * This is one of the core concepts of handling list widgets such
 * as [class@Gtk.ListView] or [class@Gtk.GridView].
 *
 * The `GtkListItemFactory` is tasked with creating widgets for items
 * taken from the model when the views need them and updating them as
 * the items displayed by the view change.
 *
 * A view is usually only able to display anything after both a factory
 * and a model have been set on the view. So it is important that you do
 * not skip this step when setting up your first view.
 *
 * Because views do not display the whole list at once but only a few
 * items, they only need to maintain a few widgets at a time. They will
 * instruct the `GtkListItemFactory` to create these widgets and bind them
 * to the items that are currently displayed.
 *
 * As the list model changes or the user scrolls to the list, the items will
 * change and the view will instruct the factory to bind the widgets to those
 * new items.
 *
 * The actual widgets used for displaying those widgets is provided by you.
 *
 * When the factory needs widgets created, it will create a `GtkListItem`
 * and hand it to your code to set up a widget for. This list item will provide
 * various properties with information about what item to display and provide
 * you with some opportunities to configure its behavior. See the
 * [class@Gtk.ListItem] documentation for further details.
 *
 * Various implementations of `GtkListItemFactory` exist to allow you different
 * ways to provide those widgets. The most common implementations are
 * [class@Gtk.BuilderListItemFactory] which takes a `GtkBuilder` .ui file
 * and then creates widgets and manages everything automatically from the
 * information in that file and [class@Gtk.SignalListItemFactory] which allows
 * you to connect to signals with your own code and retain full control over
 * how the widgets are setup and managed.
 *
 * A `GtkListItemFactory` is supposed to be final - that means its behavior should
 * not change and the first widget created from it should behave the same way as
 * the last widget created from it.
 * If you intend to do changes to the behavior, it is recommended that you create
 * a new `GtkListItemFactory` which will allow the views to recreate its widgets.
 *
 * Once you have chosen your factory and created it, you need to set it
 * on the view widget you want to use it with, such as via
 * [method@Gtk.ListView.set_factory]. Reusing factories across different
 * views is allowed, but very uncommon.
