Fix Pidgin debug window with threaded logging

I was seeing several broken `GtkTextIter`s which eventually caused a crash at random. This was due to TLS support, which writes its logs from a non-main thread. And there are probably other cases of threaded logging in GLib internals as well.

This change avoids calling GTK functions (which are not thread safe) from the log handler.

Testing Done:
Connected to a local server with TLS, that previously caused guaranteed crashes.

Produce meson-config.h in a build directory.

This should not really be run manually. It is used by Meson as a

post-configuration script to create meson-config.h which for now simply

contains information about the configuration used to create the build

directory.
