Windows: Fix building and running on Python 3.8+
Python 3.8.x and later changed the way how dependent DLLs can be found for a
given Python module that depends on the presence of external, non-system DLLs,
for more fine-grained DLLs searching and loading, as well as for security
purposes, which required the use of os.add_dll_directory().
Thus, the scripts in scanner/ must be updated such that:
-We are able to find and load the GObject and GLib DLLs, at least, on
initialization, via the use of 'pkg-config --variable bindir', as we already
depend on the GLib DLLs. Note that since the gobject-2.0.pc file does not
have a 'bindir' entry, we use gio-2.0.pc instead to discover the bindir of the
GObject and GLib DLLs. Likewise, we use the same technique for pkg-config
files that are dependent upon when using g-ir-scanner (or friends) on items
that are higher up in the stack.
-We are able to find any other DLLs (e.g. non-GNOME DLLs such as ZLib) that
are dependent but are not found in the path(s) given by 'pkg-config --variable
bindir' with the envvar GI_EXTRA_BASE_DLL_DIRS, as needed. Note that
GI_EXTRA_BASE_DLL_DIRS can be multiple paths, and that the results from
'pkg-config --variable bindir' takes precendence, in a LIFO manner.
