The `ccache` tool can be very effective at reducing compilation times
when re-running pipelines with only minor changes each time. For example
a fresh 'build-system-fedora' job will typically take 20 minutes on the
gitlab.com shared runners. With ccache this is reduced to as little as
6 minutes.
Normally meson would auto-detect existance of ccache in $PATH and use
it automatically, but the way we wrap meson from configure breaks this,
as we're passing in an config file with explicitly set compiler paths.
Thus we need to add $CCACHE_WRAPPERSPATH to the front of $PATH. For
unknown reasons if doing this in msys though, gcc becomes unable to
invoke 'cc1' when run from meson. For msys we thus set CC='ccache gcc'
before invoking 'configure' instead.
A second problem with msys is that cache misses are incredibly
expensive, so enabling ccache massively slows down the build when
the cache isn't well populated. This is suspected to be a result of
the cost of spawning processes under the msys architecture. To deal
with this we set CCACHE_DEPEND=1 which enables ccache's 'depend_only'
strategy. This avoids extra spawning of the pre-processor during
cache misses, with the downside that is it less likely ccache will
find a cache hit after semantically benign compiler flag changes.
This is the lesser of two evils, as otherwise we can't use ccache
at all under msys and remain inside the job time limit.
If people are finding ccache to hurt their pipelines, it can be
disabled by setting the 'CCACHE_DISABLE=1' env variable against
their gitlab fork CI settings.

If not set explicitly, gitlab assumes 'when: on_success" as the
publishing criteria for artifacts. This is reasonable if the
artifact is an output deliverable of the job. This is useless
if the artifact is a log file to be used for debugging job
failures.
This change makes the desired criteria explicit for every job
that publishes artifacts.

We use a fixed container tag of 'latest' so that contributors' forks
don't end up with an ever growing number of containers as they work
on throwaway feature branches.
This fixed tag causes problems running CI upstream in stable staging
branches, however, because the stable staging branch will publish old
container content that clashes with that needed by primary staging
branch. This makes it impossible to reliably run CI pipelines in
parallel in upstream for different staging branches.
This introduces $QEMU_CI_CONTAINER_TAG global variable as a way to
change which tag container publishing uses. Initially it can be set
by contributors as a git push option if they want to override the
default use of 'latest' eg
git push gitlab <branch> -o ci.variable=QEMU_CONTAINER_TAG=fish
this is useful if contributors need to run pipelines for different
branches concurrently in their forks.

By using --enable-fdt=system we can make sure that the configure
script does not try to check out the "dtc" submodule. This should
help to safe some precious CI minutes in the long run.
While we're at it, also drop some now-redundant --enable-slirp
and --enable-capstone statements. These used to have the "=system"
suffix in the past, too, which has been dropped when the their
corresponding submodules had been removed. Since these features
are auto-enabled anyway now (since the containers have the right
libraries installed), we do not need the explicit --enable-...
statements anymore.

We already limit the scope of the cross system build to reduce the
cross build times. With the recent addition of more targets we are
also running into timeout issues for some of the cross user builds.
I've selected a few of those linux-user targets which are less likely
to be in common use as distros don't have pre-built rootfs for them.
I've also added the same CROSS_SKIP_TARGETS variable as is
occasionally used to further limit cross system builds.

This converts the main build and container jobs to use the
base job rules, defining the following new variables
- QEMU_JOB_SKIPPED - jobs that are known to be currently
broken and should not be run. Can still be manually
launched if desired.
- QEMU_JOB_AVOCADO - jobs that run the Avocado integration
test harness.
- QEMU_JOB_PUBLISH - jobs that publish content after the
branch is merged upstream
As build-tools-and-docs runs on master we declare the requirement of
building amd64-debian-container optional as it should already exits
once we merge.

Personal repos may not have release tags (v6.0.0, v6.1.0, etc) and this
causes cross_system_build_job to fail when pretty-printing a unique
qemu-setup-*.exe name:
version="$(git describe --match v[0-9]*)";
^^^^^^^^^^ fails ^^^^^^^^^^^
mv -v qemu-setup*.exe qemu-setup-${version}.exe;
Fall back to the short commit hash if necessary. This fixes CI failures
that Greg Kurz and I experienced in our personal repos.

The windows cross builds still take way too long in gitlab CI, so need
more targets to be skipped. We don't want to hurt coverage of other
cross builds more though, so we let jobs fine tune with a new env
variale $CROSS_SKIP_TARGETS.
We take the set of targets that are considered relatively niche or
very old architectures, and skip approx half of them in win32 builds
and the other half of them in win64.
