    tests/docker: Use Fedora containers for MinGW cross-builds in the gitlab-CI · 93cc0506
    Thomas Huth authored
    
    According to our support policy, we do not support Debian 9 in QEMU
    anymore, and we only support building the Windows binaries with a
    very recent version of the MinGW toolchain. So we should not test
    the MinGW cross-compilation with Debian 9 anymore, but switch to
    something newer like Fedora. To do this, we need a separate Fedora
    container for each build that provides the QEMU_CONFIGURE_OPTS
    environment variable.
    Unfortunately, the MinGW 64-bit compiler seems to be a little bit
    slow, so we also have to disable some features like "capstone" in the
    build here to make sure that the CI pipelines still finish within a
    reasonable amount of time.
