[Bug 2089309] [NEW] xdgmime: buggy type definitions may cause infinite recursion

[Vladimir Ulianitsky]

Public bug reported:

The issue was
[reported](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/3516) in the
glib repo. It was found that the fix had already been implemented, so
I'm asking for a backport of the fix from
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/3714 (and by
extension,
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdgmime/-/merge_requests/29)
