girepository: Make gi_repository_find_by_gtype() deterministic
When faced with a `GType` which is present in multiple typelibs, the old
implementation was not deterministic, as it iterated over a hash table
of typelibs. The iteration order of a hash table is not deterministic.

Use the new `ordered_typelibs` and `ordered_lazy_typelibs` arrays to
iterate instead, making the order deterministic.

Add a unit test to check this. In particular, to check that symbols
which are present in both `Gio` and `GioUnix` are correctly resolved as
being from `GioUnix`.
