32a5acde5b tests: add mechanism to change Weston's behavior when running certain tests
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.

b35c21f70c compositor: turn weston main() into a lib
This takes everything that was in 'weston' the executable a turns it into
library. A new trivial 'weston' executable is written.

Creating the library will allow future improvements:

- we can link weston plugins against the library, meaning that they no longer
  need unresolved symbols to be allowed during linking

- tests do not have to fork() and exec() 'weston', they can just link to the
  library and call wet_main() after setting things up; this will help with
  using a debugger

install_rpath is set so that we can install the library into weston's module
directory, away from the normal libraries in a system. This is one library we
do not intend for others to use.

The library has no stable ABI and is not versioned.
