This refresh switches the CI for contributors to be triggered by merge
requests. Pushing to a branch in a fork will no longer run CI pipelines,
in order to avoid consuming CI minutes. To regain the original behaviour
contributors can opt-in to a pipeline on push
git push <remote> -o ci.variable=RUN_PIPELINE=1
This variable can also be set globally on the repository, through the
web UI options Settings -> CI/CD -> Variables, though this is not
recommended. Upstream repo pushes to branches will run CI.
The use of containers has changed in this update, with only the upstream
repo creating containers, in order to avoid consuming contributors'
limited storage quotas. A fork with existing container images may delete
them. Containers will be rebuilt upstream when pushing commits with CI
changes to the default branch. Any other scenario with CI changes will
simply install build pre-requisite packages in a throaway environment,
using the ci/buildenv/ scripts. These scripts may also be used on a
contributor's local machines.
With pipelines triggered by merge requests, it is also now possible to
workaround the inability of contributors to run pipelines if they have
run out of CI quota. A project member can trigger a pipeline from the
merge request, which will run in context of upstream, however, note
this should only be done after reviewing the code for any malicious
CI changes.

The MinGW-w64 project has effectively replaced the original
MinGW project, and distributions such as Fedora have been shipping
packages based on the former for years now.

Unless you create such an commit, cirrus-ci.com will not pick up the
github project and cirrus-run will fail.

We use cirrus-run to trigger Cirrus CI jobs from GitLab CI jobs,
making it possible to extend our platform coverage to include
FreeBSD without having to maintain our own runners; additionally,
we'll be able to ditch Travis CI and, since results for Cirrus CI
jobs are reflected back to the GitLab CI jobs that triggered them,
we will be able to get all information from a single dashboard.
The FreeBSD and macOS job definitions can be improved further: for
example, we will want to enable caching to speed up builds, and
ultimately we should figure out a way to generate at least part of
them, notably the list of packages to be installed, using lcitool.
All of that will happen in later patches: for now, this is good
enough to start using Cirrus CI.
