Description Cor Nouws 2024-08-23 08:44:24 UTC 
1 - Tools > Options > Languages and Locales > General .. 
2 - Open Dropdown for Locale
3 - press key PageDown to go downwards 
  => List jumps to end, not to the part of the list with locales

tdf#131120 use a replacement for GtkComboBox

With the commit, we avoid using the problematic GtkComboBox. This widget will no longer receive any development, it is deprecated in GTK 4.10: https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/class.ComboBox.html

Apparently GtkDropDown is the widget to use in GTK4 https://docs.gtk.org/gtk4/class.DropDown.html

It doesn't seem like our gtk4 UI is using it yet.

Maybe not worth it to hack on this PageDown issue at this moment.
