Interfaces can only be implemented by GObject classes not records. Every class inherits from GObject.Object which implements IDisposable. So implementing IDisposable on interfaces is possible. In case of GirCore every instance of an object has a native counterpart. As the dotnet runtime does not know how big this native counterpart is the user should be able to explicitly dispose all instances which is easier if IDisposable is available on interfaces. Fixes: #1202
