Meson build: Drop dependence on Perl
* tools/tutorial/insert_example_code.py: New Python file, equivalent to
the insert_example_code.pl Perl file.
The Perl file is still used when building with Autotools.

input example: Don't include build/config.h
The configuration with Autotools or Meson sets the compiler
option -DDONT_HAVE_MKFIFO=1, if mkfifo() does not exist.
Meson does not create build/config.h.
This makes life easier for those who build with their own
Makefile or CMake file or whatever.

book/menus/popup/examplewindow: new => unique_ptr

Redo odd wording @ RadioBut.set_group(get_group())
constness isn't the issue here; rather it is the value class of the
argument of set_group(). That method needs an lvalue reference as it
modifies the Group by adding the RadioButton to it. That's why we can't
`rb2.set_group( rb1.get_group() )`. But we can store the Group returned
by get_group() in a variable and then pass that to set_group() calls.
Not that there is much reason to, given join_group(), but it works fine.
Then I got carried away and added a program listing showing it
working... which, while mostly superfluous, does provide a nice
opportunity to explain briefly that RadioButtonGroup is a handle type,
meaning that it can be declared automatically and discarded by RAII
without worrying about thusly releasing the RadioButtons from itself.
That then informs readers for the next example that creates a new Group.
This is the first use of either "lvalue" or "rvalue" in the docbook!
That's either a good thing or a slippery, slippery slope to start on...

Drop pointless/confusing class around RadioButtons
The 2nd example seems to have been trying to be like the 1st, which put
the 3 RadioButtons in a subclass of Window, for no real reason since
they were never then added to said Window... but the 2nd omitted to
declare its members and instead declared new local variables in the
constructor with m_ prefixes, which were managed unlike the 1st example!
Just drop all of that. There's no clear reason to use a containing class
here. By not doing so, we can present both examples in a comparable way.

docb: Don't recommend `new` for an in-class member
Instead, recommend an std::unique_ptr, which will destroy it via RAII,
rather than requiring that the user remember to `delete` it and have to
define a non-trivial destructor just to do that, which is just busywork.

Builder: Using derived widgets: Update for glibmm…
…2.62, which as of Kjell’s simply epic recent commits, now supports us
setting custom properties of gtkmm-derived widgets in .ui files for
Builder. Also, slightly elaborate the bit about why you would want to!
I also be optimistic here and presume that such properties could be made
editable in Glade by using a custom catalog and property classes,
though my Glade-fu is weak, so I can only hope I'm inferring that right.
