Remove out scope Nixpkgs issue #32790 from motivation

Switching to a separate wrapper derivation for every package that uses
GLib is a bloat, as discussed in the RFC meeting.

We have numerous issues regarding wrappers and our wrapper shell hooks. Here's
a list of them, sorted to categories.
## Closure related
- [issue 95027](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/95027)
@jtojnar & @yegortimoshenko How
hard would it be to test all of our wrapped `gobject-introspection` using
packages that the equivalent, `GI_GIR_PATH` environment should work? If our
wrappers were declarative, and they were a separate derivation, at least we
wouldn't have to rebuild tons of packages to do so - we'd have to rebuild only
the wrappers. Plus, since all of the environment is available to us via
`builtins.toJSON`, it should be possible to write a script that will compare
the environments to make the transition easier to review.
