Updated patch-configure file to remove the glib-networking test.

gimp 2.10.6 fails to configure without glib-networking:

    Error: GIMP configuration failed.

      - Error: missing dependency glib-networking
          *** Test for glib-networking failed. This is required.

This is *only* required for reading external help files over the network,
according to the warning in configure:

WARNING: Test for glib-networking cannot be performed while cross-compiling.
         Make sure glib-networking is installed, otherwise GIMP will not be
able
         to display the remote help pages through the help browser, nor wil=
l it
         be able to open remote HTTPS (or other protocol using SSL/TLS) fil=
es.
         HTTPS is becoming the expected standard and should not be consider=
ed
         optional anymore.

Rather than adding more bloat to an already big application and network acc=
ess
to a program that doesn't really need it to function, I propose to cut the =
test
out of the configure script. We have a package for the gimp manual, and gimp
can be configured to use that in the preferences.
