dconf: parse GVariant values to check for equality whenever possible Direct string comparisons are an inaccurate way to compare two GVariant representations. For example, 'foo' and "foo" (including the quote marks, which are part of the representation) are equal GVariants but if you just do a string compare (remember, including the quotes) they'll be interpreted. We therefore want to use the `gi.repository` Python library to parse GVariant representations before comparing them whenever possible. However, we don't want to assume that this library will always be available or require it for Ansible to function, so we use a straight string comparison as a fallback when the library isn't available. This may result in some false positives, i.e., Ansible thinking a value is changing when it actually isn't, but will not result in incorrect values being written into `dconf`.
