Update gc from 8.2.8 to 8.2.12.

Upstream release v8.2.12 is a patch release with bug fixes and portability/runtime changes. No explicit ABI/API/CLI break is documented, but the update touches sensitive low-level areas (threads, fork(), DllMain, malloc redirection, sanitizer behavior), so this should be treated as manual review rather than blind auto-merge.

Packaging checklist:

refresh Source0 to gc-8.2.12.tar.gz and verify checksum/source integrity
rebuild in the NiceOS target environment
run %check / smoke tests
validate threaded and fork-heavy workloads
verify sanitizer-enabled builds if used in QA
watch for reverse-dependency regressions
