glib: update to 2.68.0

[paper42]

General

• This is a new package and it conforms to the quality requirements

Have the results of the proposed changes been tested?

• I use the packages affected by the proposed changes on a regular basis and confirm this PR works for me
• I generally don't use the affected packages but briefly tested this PR

[ericonr]

This one introduces some relevant new APIs, so I would increase the common/shlibs requirement.

If you want to make a separate PR for 2.66.8, we can merge that first. 2.68.0 is a bigger release.

[paper42]

I would prefer to work on this PR, but if someone else updates the package to 2.66.8, I can just rebase this. This update will be neccesary for Gnome 40.

I ran tests on my computer without patching them out and they all passed in a glibc and musl masterdir. I think I might be doing something wrong, because some of the tests are known to fail on musl.

A few of this tests can be fixed by adding python3-pytest to checkdepends.

I think so; how are you running them? I usually do xbulk -Q glib.

[ericonr]

I think we should include this patch: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/2010 , it was a 2.68 regression.

@Gottox do you want to take over this PR?
