NetworkService
Like class@Gio.NetworkAddress does with hostnames, GNetworkService
provides an easy way to resolve a SRV record, and then attempt to connect to one of the hosts that implements that service, handling service priority/weighting, multiple IP addresses, and multiple address families.
See struct@Gio.SrvTarget for more information about SRV records, and see iface@Gio.SocketConnectable for an example of using the connectable interface.

Functions
Given @connection to communicate with a proxy (eg, a #GSocketConnection that is connected to the proxy server), this does the necessary handshake to connect to @proxy_address, and if required, wraps the #GIOStream to handle proxy payload.
Asynchronous version of g_proxy_connect().
See g_proxy_connect().
Creates a #GSocketAddressEnumerator for @connectable.
Creates a #GSocketAddressEnumerator for @connectable that will return a #GProxyAddress for each of its addresses that you must connect to via a proxy.
Some proxy protocols expect to be passed a hostname, which they will resolve to an IP address themselves. Others, like SOCKS4, do not allow this. This function will return false if @proxy is implementing such a protocol. When false is returned, the caller should resolve the destination hostname first, and then pass a #GProxyAddress containing the stringified IP address to g_proxy_connect() or g_proxy_connect_async().
Format a #GSocketConnectable as a string. This is a human-readable format for use in debugging output, and is not a stable serialization format. It is not suitable for use in user interfaces as it exposes too much information for a user.
