To preserve CI shared runner credits we don't want to run
pipelines on every push.
This sets up the config so that pipelines are never created
for contributors by default. To override this the QEMU_CI
variable can be set to a non-zero value. If set to 1, the
pipeline will be created but all jobs will remain manually
started. The contributor can selectively run jobs that they
care about. If set to 2, the pipeline will be created and
all jobs will immediately start.
This behavior can be controlled using push variables
git push -o ci.variable=QEMU_CI=1
To make this more convenient define an alias
git config --local alias.push-ci "push -o ci.variable=QEMU_CI=1"
git config --local alias.push-ci-now "push -o ci.variable=QEMU_CI=2"
Which lets you run
git push-ci
to create the pipeline, or
git push-ci-now
to create and run the pipeline

This converts the main build and container jobs to use the
base job rules, defining the following new variables
- QEMU_JOB_SKIPPED - jobs that are known to be currently
broken and should not be run. Can still be manually
launched if desired.
- QEMU_JOB_AVOCADO - jobs that run the Avocado integration
test harness.
- QEMU_JOB_PUBLISH - jobs that publish content after the
branch is merged upstream
As build-tools-and-docs runs on master we declare the requirement of
building amd64-debian-container optional as it should already exits
once we merge.

This folds the static checks into using the base job
template rules, introducing one new variable
- QEMU_JOB_ONLY_FORKS - a job that should never run
on an upstream pipeline. The information it reports
is only applicable to contributors in a pre-submission
scenario, not time of merge.

This folds the Cirrus job rules into the base job
template, introducing two new variables
- QEMU_JOB_CIRRUS - identifies the job as making
use of Cirrus CI via cirrus-run
- QEMU_JOB_OPTIONAL - identifies the job as one
that is not run by default, primarily due to
resource constraints. It can be manually invoked
by users if they wish to validate that scenario.

Currently job rules are spread across the various templates
and jobs, making it hard to understand exactly what runs in
what scenario. This leads to inconsistency in the rules and
increased maint burden.
The intent is that we introduce a common '.base_job_template'
which will have a general purpose 'rules:' block. No other
template or job should define 'rules:', but instead they must
rely on the inherited rules. To allow behaviour to be tweaked,
rules will be influenced by a number of variables with the
naming scheme 'QEMU_JOB_nnnn'.
