Control: affects -1 libgnome-games-support

Please remove libgnome-games-support from Unstable.

Technically, several GTK4 games now bundle a copy of the latest
libgnome-games-support. The upstream maintainers considered it to be a
relatively small amount of code that didn't need to have the API
commitments required for a shared system library.

libgnome-games-support1 is still in Debian because it is the older
gtk3 version. There are 5 games that haven't been ported to gtk4 yet.

On behalf of the Debian GNOME team,
Jeremy Bícha
