Fix CVE-2026-58016: D-Bus introspection XML node nesting check

Backport upstream commit c9da977c178f to fix CVE-2026-58016.
The patch corrects a broken nesting check for `<node>` elements
in the D-Bus introspection XML parser (gio/gdbusintrospection.c)
and adds unit tests for invalid XML parsing
(gio/tests/gdbus-introspection.c).

Subject: [PATCH] gdbusintrospection: Fix XML parser state handling for <node>
element nesting
The check for whether a `<node>` element in D-Bus introspection XML was
nested correctly was broken. `<node>` elements can only be at the top
level, or nested immediately within another `<node>` element.
Fix the check and add some unit tests for it.
Spotted by linhlhq as #YWH-PGM9867-204. The fix is mine, and the unit test
uses example XML strings adapted from their report.
