[GTK3] Improve VRAM viewer performance

– Fixed `g_idle_add`ed functions not returning `false` to signal that they are done and don’t want to get called again automatically
– Fixed memory leaks: `gtk_list_store_insert_with_values` *copies* string arguments and doesn’t take ownership
– Monospaced numeric values in the status bar and palette viewer
