Re: [oe-core][PATCH] gtk4: update 4.14.5 -> 4.16.0

Gtk 4.16.0 has some quite invasive changes. It sets vulkan by default. 
This requires at least for hyprland to pass GSK_RENDERER=opengl to 
prevent segfault in gtk4 apps. Now, thats because hyprland does not 
support vulkan but this will presumably also happen in gnome for  older 
graphics that dont support vulkan at all.
Also the NEWS file recommends using mesa 24.2 with this release.

I added the missing release notes and sent this marked for master-next 
to clarify that this should be post styhead
