Since 2.79.0 libglib2 needs to be bootstrapped without introspection
support before gobject-introspection can be built, the added
libglib2-bootstrap sub-package takes care of that. See NEWS at [1].

Open points from my point of view are related to details of the
bootstrap process and dependency handling:

Libglib2 with introspection depends on gobject-introspection, but
adding a "select" would create a circular dependency that can't be
disabled. How should this be handled? Should libglib2 be built without
introspection (and bootstrap) if gobject-introspection isn't enabled,
or otherwise configurable?

Do we to use BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_QEMU_USER_MODE_ARGS in the Meson
exe_wrapper? If yes, how? LIBGLIB2_MESON_EXTRA_BINARIES does not allow
spaces, a wrapper script might be a workaround (but should probably be
generic if that's the way to go).

What about platforms where BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_QEMU_USER_ARCH_SUPPORTS
isn't 'y', so the exe_wrapper can't work? Should those fall back to
building without introspection? I suppose that'd be a point in favor
of making introspection conditional in libglib2.

Thanks in advance for the review,
Fiona
