GLib 2.74.x and GTK 4.8.x both correspond to the GNOME 43 cycle. Keeping
GLib on the 2.74.x branch avoids a CI regression when GLib git main
depends on a newer Meson version than the one GTK's CI installs, which
has happened in 2.75.x as a result of GNOME/glib!3077.

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.
Add support for the tiff format, which is flexible
enough to handle all our memory texture formats
without loss.
As a consequence, we are now linking against libtiff.
Using libpng instead of the lowest-common-denominator
gdk-pixbuf loader. This will allow us to load >8bit data,
and apply gamma and color correction in the future.
For now, this still just provides RGBA8 data.
As a consequence, we are now linking against libpng.
There is no reason to fallback to find_library for cairo and still rely
on pkg-config for all other dependencies, and just when using MSVC. When
building and pkg-config is not working it is preferable to fallback to a
subproject just like for all other dependencies.
Also add cairo.wrap now that meson support has been merged upstream.
Sysprof has moved to a new ABI which removes GLib from the capture library
so that GLib itself can link against sysprof-capture.
This bumps the library ABI so we can keep things coordinated between all
the new tracing layers in the stack.
To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.

ATK served us well for nearly 20 years, but the world has changed, and
GTK has changed with it. Now ATK is mostly a hindrance towards improving
the accessibility stack:
- it maps to a very specific implementation, AT-SPI, which is Linux and
Unix specific
- it requires implementing the same functionality in three different
layers of the stack: AT-SPI, ATK, and GTK
- only GTK uses it; every other Linux and Unix toolkit and application
talks to AT-SPI directly, including assistive technologies
Sadly, we cannot incrementally port GTK to a new accessibility stack;
since ATK insulates us entirely from the underlying implementation, we
cannot replace it piecemeal. Instead, we're going to remove everything
and then incrementally build on a clean slate:
- add an "accessible" interface, implemented by GTK objects directly,
which describe the accessible role and state changes for every UI
element
- add an "assistive technology context" to proxy a native accessibility
API, and assign it to every widget
- implement the AT context depending on the platform

The third version of xdg-shell introduces support for explicit popup
repositioning. If available, make use of this to implement popup
repositioning.
Note that this does *NOT* include atomic parent-child state
synchronization. For that,
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/issues/13 will
be needed.
This currently uses my own fork of wayland-protocols which adds meson
support, so that we can use it as a subproject. Eventually when
wayland-protocols' meson support lands upstream, we should change it to
point there.
Silence some meson warnings while at it to make CI happy.
This also bumps the glib requirement, since g_warning_once() is used.
Instead of requiring sassc to be installed add meson subprojects
which build libsass and sassc (currently both forks of mine, tested
under linux/mingw/msvc) when needed.
This allows us to drop the generated .css files and build scripts from git.
See #1502
We rely on a specific minimum version of gtk-doc to be able to build the
GTK API reference for the new API. In order to be able to use gtk-doc as
a subproject, though, we need to use a recent version of Meson.
