A test case can be part of a test suite (just like we already
have 'syntax-check'). This then allows developers to run only a
subset of tests. For instance - when using valgrind test setup
(`meson test -C _build/ --setup valgrind`) it makes zero sense to
run syntax-check tests or other script based tests (e.g.
check-augeas-*, check-remote_protocol, etc.). What does makes
sense is to run compiled binaries.
Strictly speaking, reaching that goal is as trivial as annotating
only those compiled tests (declared in tests/meson.build) and
running them selectively:
meson test -C _build/ --setup valgrind --suite $TAG
But it may be also desirable to run test scripts separately.
Therefore, introduce two new tags: 'bin' for compiled tests, and
'script' for script based tests and annotate each test()
accordingly.

Historically, we declared pointer type to our types:
typedef struct _virXXX virXXX;
typedef virXXX *virXXXPtr;
But usefulness of such declaration is questionable, at best.
Unfortunately, we can't drop every such declaration - we have to
carry some over, because they are part of public API (e.g.
virDomainPtr). But for internal types - we can do drop them and
use what every other C project uses 'virXXX *'.
This change was generated by a very ugly shell script that
generated sed script which was then called over each file in the
repository. For the shell script refer to the cover letter:

Right now, the logic that takes care of deciding whether expensive
tests should be run or not is not working correctly: more
specifically, it's not possible to use something like
$ VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=1 ninja test
to override the default choice, because in meson.build we always
pass an explicit value that overrides whatever is present in the
environment.
We could implement logic to make this work properly, but that
would require some refactoring of our test infrastructure and is
arguably of little value given that running
$ meson build -Dexpensive_tests=enabled
is very fast, so let's just stop telling users about the variable
instead and call it a day.

Update the remaining 'make check' references after the
switch to meson/ninja.
The reference in testsuites.html.in was kept with a note that it is
the process for Libvirt 6.6.0 and older.

This part contains a lot of useful tips, but presenting all of them
at the same time obfuscated the central message which is, 'make check'
and 'make syntax-check' must pass after each patch in a series. Let's
move them to a separate page.
