cmake: get language from Meson project if not specified as depedency(..., langugage: ...)
deps: add threads method:cmake
dependency('threads', method: 'cmake') is useful for cmake unit tests
or those who just want to find threads using cmake.
cmake: project(... Fortran) generally also requires C language
Fortran: check for undeclared variables by forcing implicit none everywhere
C/C++: check for unused parameters and return types
removed unused variables from test cases
ci: do missing return and unused arg check with Github Actions
Solaris doesn't ship static libraries, so the test can't rely on libz.a
existing on Solaris.

The test used by the new define_variable parameter was using the
includedir directory. However, in order to get a successful test,
the includedir variables needs to be relative to the prefix
variable, otherwise the replacemente will not have any effect.
This changes uses the prefix variable itself because we can
assure that it will be present.
pkg-config enables to define variables by using the define-variable
option. This allows some packages to redefine relative paths, so
files can be installed in the same relative paths but under prefix.
This class now consolidates a lot of the logic that each external
dependency was duplicating in its class definition.
All external dependencies now set:
* self.version
* self.compile_args and self.link_args
* self.is_found (if found)
* self.sources
* etc
And the abstract ExternalDependency class defines the methods that
will fetch those properties. Some classes still override that for
various reasons, but those should also be migrated to properties as
far as possible.
Next step is to consolidate and standardize the way in which we call
'configuration binaries' such as sdl2-config, llvm-config, pkg-config,
etc. Currently each class has to duplicate code involved with that
even though the format is very similar.
Currently only pkg-config supports multiple version requirements, and
some classes don't even properly check the version requirement. That
will also become easier now.
The old caching was a mess of spaghetti code layered over pasta code.
The new code is well-commented, is clear about what it's trying to do,
and uses a blacklist of keyword arguments instead of a whitelist while
generating identifiers for dep caching which makes it much more robust
for future changes.
The only side-effect of forgetting about a new keyword argument would
be that the dependency would not be cached unless the values of that
keyword arguments were the same in the cached and new dependency.
There are also more tests which identify scenarios that were broken
earlier.
All our cached_dep magic was totally useless since we ended up using
the same identifier for native and cross deps. Just nuke all this
cached_dep code since it is very error-prone and improve the
identifier generation instead.
For instance, this is broken *right now* with the `type_name` kwarg.
Add a bunch of tests to ensure that all this actually works...

Currently only strings can be passed to the link_depends argument of
executable and *library, which solves many cases, but not every one.
This patch allows generated sources and Files to be passed as well.
On the implementation side, it uses a helper method to keep the more
complex logic separated from the __init__ method. This also requires
that Targets set their link_depends paths as Files, and the backend is
responsible for converting to strings when it wants them.
This adds tests for the following cases:
- Using a file in a subdir
- Using a configure_file as an input
- Using a custom_target as an input
It does not support using a generator as an input, since currently that
would require calling the generator twice, once for the -Wl argument,
and once for the link_depends.
Also updates the docs.
In this test, we try to manually link against the generated library to
create an executable and then run it to verify that it works.
Also test for all possible library versioning in the versioning tests on
Windows. Even though they yield the same dll naming, we should still
test it.
Just checking that the version retrieved from the pkg-config file
matches is not enough. It's nearly tautological since it just checks
that we aren't returning garbage in dep.version(). Instead, check in the
test executable that the pkg-config version retrieved matches the
ZLIB_VERSION exported by zlib.
Also don't require zlib 1.2.8 since RHEL (EPEL) 7 still has 1.2.7 and we
don't really need 1.2.8 anyway.
Sometimes we want to restrict the acceptable versions to a list of
versions, or a smallest-version + largest-version, or both. For
instance, GStreamer's opencv plugin is only compatible with
3.1.0 >= opencv >= 2.3.0
In the case the main project set a subproject for a dependency another
subprojects uses, that other subproject should rather use the first
subproject rather that using native dependency.
For example in gst-all we set all GStreamer modules as subprojects
and, gst-plugins-base is set after gstreamer core, and
we want gst-plugins-base to always use GStreamer core from the subproject
and not the possibly avalaible native one.
