Add a CairoScript interpreter library and use it to replay the test output
for the CairoScript backend. The library is also used by the currently
standalone Sphinx debugger [git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~ickle/sphinx].
The syntax/operator semantics are not yet finalized, but are expected to
mature before the next stable release.
A new meta-surface backend for serialising drawing operations to a
CairoScript file. The principal use (as currently envisaged) is to provide
a round-trip testing mechanism for CairoScript - i.e. we can generate
script files for every test in the suite and check that we can replay them
with perfect fidelity. (Obviously this does not provide complete coverage
of CairoScript's syntax, but should give reasonable coverage over the
operators.)
Since CAN_TEST_PS_SURFACE does not currently require spectre, we were
attempting to compile in spectre support for any2ppm even on systems
without libspectre installed. Fix that by adding a separate flag for
CAIRO_HAS_SPECTRE.
In order to achieve substantial speed improvements the external conversion
utilities are rewritten as a daemon that communicates with the test suite
over a local socket. This is faster as it avoids the libtool and dynamic
linker overhead for each invocation, the caches persist between tests and
we no longer require a round trip through libpng.
The daemon is started automatically by the test suite and if communication
cannot be established then it falls back to using a pipe to a normal
conversion utility. The daemon will then persist for 60 seconds waiting
for further connections.
Of course any memory leak (stares at poppler) is exacerbated.
