The idea is to make it easier and more obvious how to get the runtime GTK+/GLib versions. I'm not sure it adds much over the Debug Messages window except that the textbox can get quite long to scroll and its contents can be cleared.
Since I already made the patch, I figured I'd add a PR for it.

Tested and works fine. One could argue that this information could be expected directly under the Geany version but gets the job done just as well.
