Description:

According to upstream [hacking guide](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/-/blob/1.70.1/doc/Hacking.md#valgrind) and [CI config](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/-/blob/1.70.1/.gitlab-ci.yml#L346-356), running the test suite under Valgrind's memcheck tool should use args `--setup=valgrind`, but it doesn't actually do this in check.

Is it necessary for us to use valgrind to check for memory leaks. If not, should valgrind be removed from the checkdepends?
This task depends upon
