RHEL Packaging Agent ebe9cedbc9 Fix CVE-2026-58011: range validation in g_date_time_add_full()
Backport upstream fix for CVE-2026-58011 from GNOME/glib MR !5131
to glib2 2.56.4. The patch adds range validation in
g_date_time_add_full() to prevent creation of invalid GDateTime
objects with out-of-range day values, returning NULL instead.
Includes five test cases verifying the fix.

g_date_time_add_full()
MIME-Version: 1.0

Otherwise its possible to create a non-`NULL` but invalid `GDateTime`,
which breaks all kinds of internal assumptions.
Spotted by linhlhq as #YWH-PGM9867-191. Thanks to them for providing a
suggested fix and a test case, which I have adapted and validated.
