In 11aa1cfa5af9a77a0a9f726bd38f1b7db659c0bf the patch was accidentally
moved into a versioned directory with the wrong version (2.82.0
instead of 2.82.4) and thus not applied. However, there have been no
issues reported.

The patch description mentions being needed to fix build errors in
package/atk and package/libnice. It was originally added in
b094f88a4d501101bfba9b65491209e6a0fe0397, and amended for libnice in
2c916b400bc608512db790d97df010ca666b6dd2. package/atk was removed in
2c3ca7bea1de76163aeef432412eb14551ed0581, because atk has been merged
into at-spi2-core. Both at-spi2-core and libnice are Meson packages,
as was atk at the time of its removal.

Both current packages build with the following configuration (tested
using utils/test-pkg):

BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3=y
BR2_PACKAGE_GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION=y
BR2_PACKAGE_LIBNICE=y
BR2_PACKAGE_AT_SPI2_CORE=y

Evidently the patch is no longer needed, presumably because the
correct search path for GIR files is set by other means, and we can
remove it instead of fixing the version number of the patch directory.

I admit it is a bit unsatisfying that it's unclear exactly *what*
fixed that search path. Another bit of evidence I have is that when
working on that libglib2 2.82.x and gobject-introspection 1.82.0
version bump it was primarily for package/python-gobject, which also
uses Meson, so it probably was either that bump or a Meson bump at
some point before.

TestPythonPy3NetworkmanagerGoi (accessing NM using python-gobject)
passes with this patch.

For stable branches it's probably easiest to verify at-spi2-core and
libnice build using test-pkg and the config snippet above.
