Use a container image instead of rebuilding it each time.

Federico Mena Quintero requested to merge federico/at-spi2-core:ci-container-image into master

This steals some of the scripts from glib/.gitlab-ci/ and adjusts them a bit for the needs of at-spi2-core.

Current status:

  • Like in glib, the maintainer creates a container image with the scripts provided, and uploads it to registry.gitlab.gnome.org. There are docs for this; I intend to expand docs about CI in general.
  • The pipeline indeed runs with that image; no packages get installed during the pipeline run.
  • Fixed some nits in the CI scripts.
  • The pipeline's runtime reduces from about 7 minutes to about 2 minutes, and doesn't fail intermittently when zypper install times out.

Next up:

  • Fix the coverage job - I can get it to work if run by hand with some changes.
  • Figure out the asan job.
  • Add the documentation/deploy jobs.
