Previously `gi_object_info_find_signal()` used `gi_object_info_get_signal()` to retrieve the *i*th signal and compare its name to the desired name. However, `gi_object_info_get_signal()` returns an allocated object. If the names were not matching, the allocated object was simply dropped, and this resulted in a lot of unnecessary allocations compared to the desired number of allocations, which is one. To avoid much of the overhead pertaining to the creation of these allocated `GISignalInfo` objects, introduce a new function that inspects the signal blobs directly and returns an allocated `GISignalInfo` object just for the matching signal. The function is largely a copy-and-paste of `gi_base_info_find_vfunc()`, which does the same thing, only for virtual functions.
