Server: Use python-gi instead of old python-gobject

The python-gobject module is old, deprecated, and replaced with the
python-gi (GObject Introspection) module; use that instead.

  "python-gi | python-gobject" to "python-gi".
* mandos: Import "GLib" instead of "GObject"; change all users.
* mandos-monitor: - '' -
