The `combinatorics` module was kindly provided by R. Behrends.

and changed only files gimplgob.nim and gen.nim and the generated gisup4.nim and gisup3.nim files.
The example programs still compile and seems to run. To install this new version you have to do
nimble install gintro@#head currently. When Mr. GavR has tested this version carefully, we may make it the
official version 0.9.7.

When gobject-introspection was first processing libnice, it loads old libsoup 2.4 and when then processing linsoup 3.0
name conflicts lead to error messages and the install process hung. Now we process always libsoup in version 2.4 and 3.0
before libnice, this seems to work. For libsoup 2.4 we generate a module called libsoup.nim as before, and the
