[pygobject] Construct structs using default API constructor

[Tomeu Vizoso <tomeuv src gnome org>]

commit 7c2f48bb6d67ec9a1ee5ac03a5aee34b54c6ebdd
Author: Tomeu Vizoso <tomeu vizoso collabora co uk>

    Construct structs using default API constructor
    
    If the struct has something that looks like a default constructor,
    use it instead of trying to directly allocate it, as it will fail
    if the struct fields are not exposed.
