Gimp 3.0.8's meson file detects the presence of libunwind incorrectly,
making it fail on some platforms (e.g. x86 + musl + clang), even when
libunwind is explicitly disabled:

| <snip>i686-oe-linux-musl-ld: app/core/libappcore.a.p/gimpbacktrace-linux.c.o: 
in function `gimp_backtrace_get_address_info':
| 
/usr/src/debug/gimp/3.0.8/../sources/gimp-3.0.8/app/core/gimpbacktrace-linux.c:708:(.text+0xbd7):
 undefined reference to `_ULx86_init_local'

This backported patch fixes this.
