ci: Only build gobject-introspection if the system version is too old

We want to build GLib against a matched version of
gobject-introspection, and this version will probably be bumped quite
often as the two are developed in tandem.

However, if the CI system provides a newer version, we should probably
use that, otherwise we’re essentially downgrading part of the OS on the
CI system, and that probably will result in issues. In particular,
gobject-introspection <1.82 has a bug on MSYS2 which means it doesn’t
build (see issue #3464).

So, build gobject-introspection manually if the CI system version is too
old, otherwise use the system version. Do this programmatically so we
don’t have to repeatedly add and remove the gobject-introspection build
commands from the CI configuration as versions are bumped.

Fixes: #3464
