Hi,

this is the third version of this patch series that adds GitLab CI definitions to the Git project. Please refer to the cover letter for v1 of this series [1] for the motivation and intent -- I won't repeat it here as it's a bit on the longer side.

Changes compared to v2:
    - Patch 5: This is a new preparatory step to unify the setup of some
      environment variables. It also fixes some smallish issues, like
      e.g. the fact that some envvars were set _after_ the export.
    - Patch 6: Another new preparatory step. It makes our infra around
      certain helper functions that have the intent to interact with the
      project repository, e.g. to cache good trees. We now detect the
      case when there is no Git or when the project is not a Git repo
      and bail out gracefully.
    - Patch 7: The last new preparatory patch. Installs a bunch of
      dependencies which are required for the test runtime in the Alpine
      based job. This increases test coverage.
    - Patch 8: Several smaller improvements:
        - Added a note why we install sudo and shadow in linux-musl now.
        - Fixed an issue where the HOME directory was part of the
          project directory, and thus Git complained about newly added
          untracked files.
        - Added the "pedantic" job that does a pednatic compilation on
          Fedora.
        - Added more test time dependencies.
        - Made the "echo -e" invocation portable by using printf
          instead.

What I didn't address yet is a suggestion by Phillip, namely to unify the logic that sets up unprivileged builds. I don't have the infra available to test any such change that would ultimately also impact GitHub Workflows and Azure Pipelines and thus do not feel comfortable to refactor this. I agree with the suggestion though, so I propose to rather handle it at a later point in time.

A test run of this patch series can be found at [2].
Thanks!
Patrick
