The test suite is throttled by the headless backend repaint
timer. This commit uses the headless refresh rate option to speed up
runtime by using the immediate repaint-only-on-capture mode by
default. Tests which don't support that mode yet override the refresh
value to use the highest rate possible.

Now that enum weston_renderer_type is public, there is no need for a
local enum renderer_type in the tests.

Spinning up the full desktop-shell is pointless overhead for most tests,
which don't need the full load.

There are some specific cases in which we need Weston to
behave differently when running in the test suite. This
adds a new API to allow the tests to select these behaviors.
For instance, in the DRM backend we plan to add a writeback
connector screenshooter. In case it fails for some
reason, it should fallback to the renderer screenshooter
that all other backends use. But if we add a test to
ensure the correctness of the writeback screenshooter,
we don't want it to fallback to the renderer one, we
want it to fail. With this new API we can choose to
disable the fallback behavior specifically for this test.

Currently doesn't exist a standard way to write a weston.ini inside a test.
Here, two new functions `weston_ini_setup` and `cfgln` are introduced to
help the test writer to write a weston.ini file and load it to the test.
And `internal-screenshot-test` is converted to use the new method of write
a weston.ini. This conversion serves as example and initial API test.
The tester needs to call `weston_test_harness_execute_as_client` or
`weston_test_harness_execute_as_plugin` in the same way as before.
The `weston_ini_setup` will fill the setup->config_file with the
correct path to the weston.ini file.
The main design goal is to avoid pre-made or build-made weston.ini(s)
and keep the test as self-contained as possible.

With these, a test can initialize the headless-backend with non-default scale
and transform which allows testing output scales and transforms.

This replaces the old test harness with a new one.
The old harness relied on fork()'ing each test which makes tests independent,
but makes debugging them harder. The new harness runs client code in a thread
instead of a new process. A side-effect of not fork()'ing anymore is that any
failure will stop running a test series short. Fortunately we do not have any
tests that are expected to crash or fail.
The old harness executed 'weston' from Meson, with lots of setup as both
command line options and environment variables. The new harness executes
wet_main() instead: the test program itself calls the compositor main function
to execute the compositor in-process. Command line arguments are configured in
the test program itself, not in meson.build. Environment variables aside, you
are able to run a test by simply executing the test program, even if it is a
plugin test.
The new harness adds a new type of iteration: fixtures. For now, fixtures are
used to set up the compositor for tests that need a compositor. If necessary, a
fixture setup may include a data array of arbitrary type for executing the test
series for each element in the array. This will be most useful for running
screenshooting tests with both Pixman- and GL-renderers.
The new harness outputs TAP formatted results into stdout. Meson is not
switched to consume TAP yet though, because it would require a Meson version
requirement bump and would not have any benefits at this time. OTOH outputting
TAP is trivial and sets up a clear precedent of random test chatter belonging
to stderr.
This commit migrates only few tests to actually make use of the new features:
roles is a basic client test, subsurface-shot is a client test that
demonstrates the fixture array, and plugin-registry is a plugin test. The rest
of the tests will be migrated later.
Once all tests are migrated, we can remove the test-specific setup from
meson.build, leaving only the actual build instructions in there.
The not migrated tests and stand-alone tests suffer only a minor change: they
no longer fork() for each TEST(), otherwise they keep running as before.
