patch and test

This is an idea for a separate Glib::Object::New to put the Glib::Object::new()
into an object subclass created by Glib::Object::Subclass.

Putting Glib::Object::New into the @ISA of the subclass helps keep the import()
of Glib::Object::Subclass out of the subclass.

Make sense to me, and my testing doesn't reveal any compatibility issues. 
muppet, what do you think?

I'm not completely sold on the name "Glib::Object::New".  I wouldn't have
guessed that it provides a default constructor.  I can't think of a better
alternative right now, though.  Nowadays, modules of this kind seem to be
called roles or mixins, but there appears no clear naming convention for them
yet.

Perhaps Glib::Object::Base::New to suggest its purpose.

I don't see much either "Base" or "Mixin" on cpan.  Where does all the
multi-inheritence hide?  Or is no-one foolish enough to try it? :-)

"Roles" are to declare that you have certain features or methods, rather than
actually implementing them, are they?
