girepository: Drop gi_repository_get_default()

Philip Withnall requested to merge pwithnall/glib:gi-repository-no-singleton into main

We now only support creating GIRepository instances as normal GObjects, not as a global singleton. This makes the semantics of the class a bit more standard and, in particular, makes it easier to ensure that everything is freed when we’re done with libgirepository. This is particularly useful for unit testing, but should also be useful when unloading modules from bindings.
