`crafter-build test` builds a project's tests side by side, and a
project whose tests each copy its externalDependencies hands every one
of them the same unpinned dependency. Each test's Build() pulled the
shared clone. Before the clone had a lock, those pulls ran at the same
time and broke its .git/FETCH_HEAD, which failed every test of
Crafter.Graphics (issue #34). Since 653dd0b they wait for each other,
but every one is still a network round trip: 26 tests cost 26 pulls of
each dependency, one after another, and for a CMake dependency as many
configure checks and builds.
depResults already records one build pass, keyed by the PcmDir of every
dependency configuration built in it. An external dependency now goes
in the same map, keyed by the directory its build leaves
(ExternalBuildDir: the clone, or for CMake its build directory). The
first configuration that needs it fetches and builds it; the others
wait for that and take its outcome. Keying on the build directory
rather than the clone keeps a CMake declaration from taking the outcome
of a header-only declaration of the same clone, which only fetched it.
A fresh depResults is a fresh pass, so the next build still pulls, and
every caller of Build() gets this: RunTests, a plain build, and the
pragma dependencies LoadProject builds.
To make that possible BuildExternal is split. BuildExternal is now the
shared work, lock, fetch, configure and build, and returns the error.
ExternalOutputs computes what one declaration compiles and links with,
because two declarations of one clone can differ in includeDirs,
libDirs and libs; ExternalBuildResult loses its error field. The work
no longer stops between steps when the configuration that started it
is cancelled: others may be waiting on it, and a run cut short would
leave them a clone nobody fetched. A dependency configuration's Build()
already runs to completion for the same reason.
The promise and future the dependency threads used to build or wait for
a configuration are now one helper, OncePerPass, which both kinds use.
An exception thrown in BuildExternal used to escape its thread into
std::terminate; it is now a build error, as for a dependency.
With eight tests that share a local dependency, a test run fetched it
eight times before this and fetches it once now (SharedExternalFetch,
next commit).

- Shaders record the files glslang opened (a depfile) and their settings
(source path, stage, entry point, defines, include directories) in the
build directory, and rebuild when an included file or a setting changes,
not only the shader's own source.
- An executable relinks when its link command changed, not only when an
object is newer: a link flag in project.cpp, or a dependency's library
that moved (an ExternalDependency built into a new cache directory). The
command is recorded beside the objects; its flags come from ordered sets,
so the order the dependency threads finish in can't change it.
- An external's newest artifact counts its libDirs and versioned .so names.
- Submodules are checked out at the revisions the fetched commit records,
from the URLs its .gitmodules gives, after every clone, switch, checkout
and pull, so a pinned commit builds against its own submodules, and one
moved by hand is put back; with no .gitmodules, git isn't asked.
- Each external clone's fetch and build hold a file lock: parallel builds
pulled into one clone at once ("cannot lock ref").
- mingw:
- -stdlib=libstdc++ always;
- the std module's source is found through libstdc++.modules.json in the
mingw toolchain's own library directories (the generic lib/ holds the
host's Linux one), asking the compiler once a run;
- a toolchain that isn't there is a build error saying where it looked,
not std::terminate;
- CRAFTER_MINGW_DIR names the prefix, the directory holding
x86_64-w64-mingw32/ and lib/gcc/;
- inside the Flatpak the host's /usr mingw is used.
- RunScript's exit-status check reads as the one range it is.
- Tests: ConcurrentExternalFetch, ExternalArtifactTime, GitSubmodules,
LinkFlagsChange, MingwMissing, ShaderIncludeChange; ShaderCompile and
ToolchainResolve extended.
