It is a programmer error to attempt to look up a non-existent source.
More specifically: source IDs can be reissued after a source has been
destroyed and therefore it is never valid to use this function with a
source ID which may have already been removed. An example is when
scheduling an idle to run in another thread with g_idle_add(): the
idle may already have run and been removed by the time this function
is called on its (now invalid) source ID. This source ID may have
been reissued, leading to the operation being performed against the
wrong source.
Finds a #GSource given a pair of context and ID.
