When using binutils's windres, we can instruct it to invoke the preprocessor
in such a way that it writes a depfile, so that dependencies on #included
files are automatically tracked.
Not implemented for MSVC tools, so skip testing it in that case.
Expose depend_files: from the custom_target this creates.
This is the change suggested in #2815, with tests and documentation added.
Fixes#2789 (duplicate #2830)
Currently, this test only tries to load a predefined icon, so the resource
compilation and linking can be completely removed from the meson.build and
it still passes.
Change to try to load the icon contained in the resources we compile.
In this case, the arguments to MinGW windres will contain spaces and
the test will definitely fail, so just skip it.
This effectively means that manually running the test will be fine, but
running it via run_project_tests.py will always fail (skip).
