There are other reasons why it needs to be dynamic, just thought I'd
mention it.

I guess that is pretty robust way of checking it - although we will
increment the plugin ABI if we add any filetypes, as other plugins
might rely on GEANY_MAX_FILE_TYPES as well.

If there's going to be a change, it should be to make filetypes a
dynamic array (necessary for loading custom filetypes). But if you want
you could write a filetypes_foreach() function for the plugin API, that
might be useful.
BTW which GLib functions do you mean?
