Motivation for this change

There was a previous fix for this in
#71571

Addresses: #71571 (again)

But some things, most notably pygtk, still rely on deprecated pango
APIs that are not available past 1.43, this backports the CVE
fix to this version.

Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Tested locally with inkscape, lilypond, pygtk and 1-2 small tools relying on pygtk, such as claws-mail.

LGTM, should be back-portable?
