gvariant: Change type of ‘y’ variants from guchar to guint8

This fits better with the convention in the rest of GLib where arbitrary
8-bit values are represented as guint8, avoiding the potential confusing
of a name which references ‘char’s.

This is not an API break, as both guint8 and guchar are unconditionally
typedeffed to unsigned char.
