Emilio Cota e3feb2cc22 util: import GTree as QTree
The only reason to add this implementation is to control the memory allocator
used. Some users (e.g. TCG) cannot work reliably in multi-threaded
environments (e.g. forking in user-mode) with GTree's allocator, GSlice.
See https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/285 for details.

Importing GTree is a temporary workaround until GTree migrates away
from GSlice.

This implementation is identical to that in glib v2.75.0, except that
we don't import recent additions to the API nor deprecated API calls,
none of which are used in QEMU.

I've imported tests from glib and added a benchmark just to
make sure that performance is similar. Note: it cannot be identical
because (1) we are not using GSlice, (2) we use different compilation flags
(e.g. -fPIC) and (3) we're linking statically.

As a sanity check, the same benchmark when Glib's version
is >= $glib_dropped_gslice_version (i.e. QTree == GTree):
