Brought low once again by my ignorance, I humbly ask...who or what is a "Gary Stu"?

That's what male Mary Sues are usually called, if you know what they are. If not, a Mary Sue (or Gary Stu) are usually characters that have very few faults or weaknesses and are very much perfect in every way.

It's particularly painful in female Mary Sues who end up being our hero's love interest, despite said hero being in love with someone else, of a different species or previously gay.

Thanks for the explainer!

It was like that when we got here!
