[gnome-shell/wip/smcv/gir-api-versions] Specify API versions for all public GIR APIs, except GLib

    Specify API versions for all public GIR APIs, except GLib
    
    If one of these libraries breaks its GIR API in future, then upgrading
    packages unrelated to gnome-shell might pull in the newer version,
    causing gnome-shell to crash when it gets a newer GIR API that is
    incompatible with its expectations. For example, this seems to be
    happening in Debian testing at the moment, when GNOME Shell 41.4
    imports GWeather and can get version 4.0 instead of the version 3.0 that
    it expected.
    
    Adding explicit API versions at the time the newer version is released
    is too late, because that will still let the newer version of the GIR API
    break pre-existing GNOME Shell packages. Prevent similar crashes in
    future by making the desired versions explicit.
    
    This is done for all third-party libraries except GLib, similar to the
    common practice in Python code; if GLib breaks API, then that will be
    a disruptive change to the whole GLib/GObject ecosystem, regardless.
    
    Gvc, Meta, Shell, Shew, St are not included because they're private
    (only exist in a non-default search path entry).
    
    Clutter and Cogl *are* included, because we need to import the fork of
    them that comes with Meta, as opposed to their deprecated standalone
    versions.
