Colin Walters 4b71be0ef0 repository: Add new public gi_type_info_extract_ffi_return_value() API
Dealing with FFI and return values is very tricky; this API allows
sharing the bits to do it between gobject-introspection and gjs (and
potentially other FFI binding consumers).

**NOTE** I swapped the order of the arguments, under the premise that
out arguments should generally be last.
