CI: Update packages in Docker image

FeRD (Frank Dana) requested to merge ferdnyc/gtksourceview:update-ci-docgen into master

After submitting !306 (closed) I discovered that the gi-docgen installed in the CI image's /home/user/.local/bin/ is actually less recent than the Fedora 36 gi-docgen RPM, and has some incompatibilities with newer syntax. Since installing gi-docgen via dnf will install a newer version, we can just do that in the image setup, and avoid the subsequent pip command.

Also, the .gitlab-ci.yml scripting was using sudo dnf to install some additional packages that can just be part of the image, instead.

Finally, I (semi-)sorted the package list in the Dockerfile's dnf command, and added the install_weak_deps=false option to the dnf command to eliminate extraneous packages that bloat the image.
