Attempts to determine whether or not the host pointed to by
connectable can be reached, without actually trying to connect to
it.
This may return true even when #GNetworkMonitor:network-available
is false, if, for example, monitor can determine that
connectable refers to a host on a local network.
If monitor believes that an attempt to connect to connectable
will succeed, it will return true. Otherwise, it will return
false and set error to an appropriate error (such as
gio.types.IOErrorEnum.HostUnreachable).
Note that although this does not attempt to connect to
connectable, it may still block for a brief period of time (eg,
trying to do multicast DNS on the local network), so if you do not
want to block, you should use gio.network_monitor.NetworkMonitor.canReachAsync.
