    gtype: suppress valgrind memory leak warnings
    
    The problem occurs because we keep a pointer inside the allocated block,
    instead of a pointer to the start of the block. This memory exists for
    the lifetime of the application, so let's silence it.
    
    This is probably abuse of VALGRIND_MALLOCLIKE_BLOCK(), which is really
    intended for use in memory allocators, but gtype.c already uses it in
    two other places, and it's a practical solution. I wrote another larger
    fix for this issue that involves keeping an array of extra pointers when
    running under valgrind. This is simpler.
    
    Fix suggested by Philip Withnall
    
    ```
    ==180238== 16 bytes in 1 blocks are possibly lost in loss record 3,078 of 16,075
    ==180238==    at 0x483BB1A: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:762)

    ==180238==    by 0x4002149: ??? (in /usr/lib64/ld-2.30.so)
    ```
    
    Fixes #2076
