    Release an extra reference on GtkExpander:child
    
    The child of a GtkExpander is owned directly by the expander whenever
    the "expanded" flag is unset.
    
    We are adding an additional reference to the child of an expander when
    expander is not expanded.
    
    Additionally, if a GtkExpander is disposed while not expanded, we need
    to explicitly release the reference on the child widget that we own.
    
    This reference leak was masked in GTK3 by GtkContainer removing each
    child from the parent container by recursively calling
    gtk_widget_destroy().
