Due to a design problem and misunderstanding between the Avocado
framework and QEMU, Avocado is fetching many asset artifacts it
shouldn't be fetching, exhausting the jobs CI timeout.
Since Avocado artifacts are cached, this is not an issue with old
forks, which already have populated the cache and do not need to
download new artifacts to run the tests.
However this is very confusing to new contributors who start to
fork the project and keep having failing CI pipelines.
As a temporary kludge, add the QEMU_CI_AVOCADO_TESTING variable
to allow old forks to keep running the Avocado tests, while still
allowing new forks to use the mainstream set of CI tests.
Keep the tests enabled by default on the mainstream namespace
which is old enough to have a populated cache, hoping we will
keep this cache long enough until the Avocado/QEMU design issue
is fixed.

It has been over two years since RHEL-8 was released, and thus per the
platform build policy, we no longer need to support RHEL-7 as a build
target.
The build-user-centos7 job was to detect a failure specific to CentOS
7 and there are already other linux user jobs for other platforms.
Thus we can drop this job rather than move it to CentOS 8.

it across from the upstream registry. We disable this rule from
running on the qemu-project itself so it doesn't accidentally wipe out

Both, the build-crypto-old and the check-crypto-old jobs finish reasonably
fast, and the build artifacts are only used for the single corresponding
check jobs, so there is no reason for doing the check step in a separate
job here. Thus let's stop wasting artifacts space and job scheduler over-
head by simply merging the test step into the build jobs.

And while we're at it, also add a proper "needs:" line to the
job so that it can be started as soon as possible instead of always
waiting for the previous stage to finish.

Define a new variable LD_JOBS, that can be used to select
the maximum number of linking jobs to be executed in parallel.
If the variable is not defined, maintain the default given by
make -j
Currently, make parallelism at build time is based on the number
of cpus available.
This doesn't work well with LTO at linking, because with LTO the
linker has to load in memory all the intermediate object files
for optimization.
The end result is that, if the gitlab runner happens to run two
linking processes at the same time, the job will fail with an
out-of-memory error,
This patch leverages the ability to maintain high parallelism at
compile time, but limit the number of linkers executed in parallel.

Currently, our check-system-* jobs are recompiling the whole sources
again. This happens due to the fact that the jobs are checking out
the whole source tree and required submodules again, and only try
to use the "build" directory with the binaries and object files as an
artifact from the previous stage - which simply does not work right
anymore (with the current version of meson). Due to some changed
time stamps, meson/ninja are always trying to rebuild the whole tree.
In the long run, we could likely use "meson test --no-rebuild", but
there is still some work going on in that area to improve the user
experience. So until this has been done, simply avoid recompiling the
sources with a trick: pass NINJA=":" to the make process in the test
jobs. Also check out the submodules manually before updating the
timestamps in the build folder, so that the binaries are definitely
newer that all the source files.
This saves ca. 10 - 15 minutes of precious CI cycles in each run.

Since the meson build system rework, the configure script prefers the
git submodules over the system libraries. So we are testing compilation
with capstone, fdt and libslirp as a submodule all over the place,
burning CPU cycles by recompiling these third party modules and wasting
some network bandwidth in the CI by cloning the submodules each time.
Let's stop doing that in at least a couple of jobs and use the system
libraries instead.
While we're at it, also install meson in the Fedora container, since
it is new enough already, so we do not need to check out the meson
submodule here.
