There are two possible interpretations of "expected failure": either
the test *must* fail (exactly the inverse of an ordinary test, with
success becoming failure and failure becoming success), or the test
*may* fail (with success intended, but failure possible in some
environments). Autotools had the second interpretation, which seems
more useful in practice, but Meson has the first.
Instead of using should_fail, we can put the tests in one of two new
suites: "flaky" is intended for tests that succeed or fail unpredictably
according to the test environment or chance, while "failing" is for
tests that ought to succeed but currently never do as a result of a
bug or missing functionality. With a sufficiently new version of Meson,
the flaky and failing tests are not run by default, but can be requested
by running a setup that does not exclude them, with a command like:
meson test --setup=x11_unstable --suite=flaky --suite=failing
As a bonus, now that we're setting up setups and their excluded suites
programmatically, the gsk-compare-broadway tests are also excluded by
default when running the test setup for a non-broadway backend.
When running the tests in CI, --suite=gtk overrides the default
exclude_suites, so we have to specify --no-suite=flaky and
--no-suite=failing explicitly.
This arrangement is inspired by GNOME/glib!2987, which was contributed
by Marco Trevisan.

Flatpak CI is failing because of unknown option "print-backends".
print-backends was renamed to print in c4d350c260
and subsequently was removed in a4aa6d79ad
(replaced by print-cups and print-cloudprint as auto options)
We only need a C compiler and not the whole toolchain,
and gst-plugins-bad was split into libraries and plugins.
pkg-config -> pkgconf.
This should speed the CI setup up a bit.
CI currently fails with "fatal error LNK1318: Unexpected PDB error; OK (0) ''"
Google tells me it might be related to hitting a memory limit. Let's try
disabling debug for now.
This makes the hotspot of DND surfaces work when using the Vulkan and
OpenGL renderers.
This bumps the CI image used to the newly built image. This is needed to
install a new enough libwayland-client.so needed for wl_surface.offset.
This is done by adding wayland as a meson subproject, building it
on-demand if the version in the system is not new enough. As
libwayland-client.so is pulled in implicitly when linking to gtk4, the
compile step needs LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to make ld find the right library
to link to.
This is supposed to test the most fallback GL stuff, so we might want to
set even more env vars here.
Also enable the run for the Fedora builder in CI.
We don't want people to build Vulkan support when they just want to get
GTK built.
This is in particular true for GTK as a CI subproject or for people
using jhbuild.
Worse, just having Vulkan support compiled in tends to cause crashes
in the Inspector, even if you are not using it.
GTK supports webm playback, which means a backend should always be
compiled.
The ffmpeg backend however is incomplete (no audio) and as such, we
don't want people to end up with it accidentally.
Since we don't want to drag an entire gstreamer build into our ci
on MacOs or msvc, explicitly disable the gstreame media backend there.
v32 of the image includes wayland-protocols 1.21, and
other updates from Fedora 34.
While we are at it, drop gtk-doc from the image, and drop
the separate DOCS_IMAGE - no longer used.
Right now, we land inside a 404 if we go to:
https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/gtk/
as we have all our API references in a sub-level. We should have a
landing page for the root, similar to developer.gnome.org/references/.
