glib/2.78.x: Add patch to support Python 3.12

[jwillikers]

Specify library name and version: glib/2.78.x

The distutils module was removed in Python 3.12, requiring at least Meson 1.2.3 and a patch for glib. See the upstream PR here.

Requires conan-io/conan-docker-tools#554

---

• I've read the contributing guidelines.
• I've used a recent Conan client version close to the currently deployed.
• I've tried at least one configuration locally with the conan-center hook activated.

[jwillikers]

Oh yes, actually need to install the Python packaging module for this to work...

Note: Conan v2 builds are now mandatory. Please read our discussion about it.

The v2 pipeline failed. Please, review the errors and note this is required for pull requests to be merged. In case this recipe is still not ported to Conan 2.x, please, ping @conan-io/barbarians on the PR and we will help you.

Backporting the feature is not a good idea as the upstream no longer support it so there is no guarantee about the behavior. Let's keep trying a solution with packaging first. Thank you for checking this possibility.

FYI, this is preventing glib from building on our macOS builder, see #23029 (comment)
