The test.json format currently has three keys related to skipping tests:
* `skip_on_jobname`
* `skip_on_os`
* `skip_on_env`
While `skip_on_env` marks the test itself as skipped, i.e. they don't get run when the
conditions are met, the other two skip options are just marking the test as "expected to be skipped"
if the conditions apply, i.e. they want to see `MESON_SKIP_TEST` in the output and things will
fail if that doesn't happen. They don't actually skip the tests as the names imply.
To make this clearer rename the keys:
* `skip_on_jobname` -> `expect_skip_on_jobname`
* `skip_on_os` -> `expect_skip_on_os`
`skip_on_env` stays the same, since that actually skips.
The docs were also confused about this, so adjust that too.
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
The system tool is always the wrong thing to use and cause hard to debug
issues when trying to link system libraries with cross built binaries.
The ExternalDependency base class already had a method to deal with
this, used by PkgConfigDependency and QtBaseDependency, so it should
make things more consistent.
