Motivation for this change

The many-years abandoned GStreamer 0.10 branch no longer builds so let's remove it. Hopefully nothing used it these days.

GConf has been abandoned for years too and would not work without user running the daemon.

cc #39975 #93540

Erm, this flat-out breaks the build, though? Are there some flags to pass?

At least 28 builds fine.

From the error message, it sounds like it revealed an underspecified dependency that was previously masked by propagation:

./vidxanm.cpp:23:10: fatal error: X11/Intrinsic.h: No such file or directory
   23 | #include <X11/Intrinsic.h>
      |          ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.

Did not have time to look into it yet, though.

Edit: Looks like it does not affect the build.

One of the builds seems to complain explicitly about gstreamer not found, though.

Seems to build now, after removing a configure flag.

Let's see what it breaks (or rather reveals as broken).
