gsignal: Canonicalise signal name when looking it up in an object

Previously, we’d look up the signal name as passed to (for example)
`g_signal_lookup()`, and rely on the fact that signals are inserted
twice into `g_signal_key_bsa`; once in canonical form and once not.

In preparation for only inserting signals into `g_signal_key_bsa` once,
we now try looking up a signal with the given signal name and, if that
fails, try canonicalising the name and trying again.

This is a performance hit on lookups for non-canonical names, but
shouldn’t affect the performance of lookups for canonical names. If
people want performance, they should use canonical names.
