Where did you hear about the need for GSoC applicant to finish one microproject as a requirement for application? That place should have links to microprojects ideas.
https://git.github.io/General-Microproject-Information/ is one of the canonical starting point.
No microprojects done by new contributors "could help" us, as a microproject by definition is a trivial "Hello world" project that is to help new contributors dip their toes in the water, getting introduced to the development process. Look at the list archive https://lore.kernel.org/git and see what other aspiring GSoC applicants are already working on.
Have fun.
