Redundant declarations are explicitly allowed in C11, and glibc 2.39's implementation of `_Static_assert` uses them, so we need to avoid failing on these in order to build successfully on Debian 13 prereleases. Signed-off-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@collabora.com>

For historical reasons g_qsort_with_data() "only" works with up to 2**31 items, so it won't necessarily work for pathologically large arrays and therefore is deprecated. The advantage of g_qsort_with_data() and its replacement g_sort_array() is that GLib guarantees that they are a stable sort (will not permute items that already compare equal), which is not a guarantee for glibc's qsort() and qsort_r(). However, in each of these places we are sorting the keys from a hash table, which are unique anyway, so there is no advantage to a stable sort. Signed-off-by: Simon McVittie <smcv@collabora.com>
