mediainfo: split gui into mediainfo-gui subpackage #22527

Currently if you only want the CLI tool without pulling in the whole of GTK3 you need to build it yourself, so I split the 2 packages (just like I did with mp3info)

I can see why you might want it split, but the problem with splitting a package after it is in the repo is, that an update would remove one part (in this case the gui) from systems that have it already installed.
This would leave the option mediainfo as a meta package and mediainfo-cli and mediainfo-gui as subpackages.

spiritually? yes.
physically, didn't do it, it was relevant for me at some point and then it wasn't apparently? and never thought about it again?
