While we can’t add markers to the macro implementations to cause lcov to
ignore them automatically, we can change our lcov configuration to
ignore all calls to them.
See https://github.com/linux-test-project/lcov/issues/44.
This causes all the un-takeable branches and un-reachable assertions to
be ignored by our code coverage, which bumps our statistics:
• Lines: 74.9% → 74.8%
• Functions: 82.3% → 82.3%
• Branches: 53.3% → 64.2%
The rationale is that nobody should be testing programmer error
handling, as g_return_*if_fail() are used to guard against — so it’s not
reasonable to count missed branches like that in code coverage
statistics.

The gresource code uses libelf if available but that also depends on mmap but isn't
guarded with HAVE_MMAP. This can make the build fail under MSYS2 where a mingw version
of libelf exists but there is no mmap.
Instead of guarting the libelf code with HAVE_LIBELF add a new macro named USE_LIBELF
which is only defined if libelf and mmap support are available.
Also install the mingw libelf version for CI so we catch similar errors in the future.
See comment in !151. Using the "--initial" option of lcov we collect
the coverage of all compiled files and merge them later into the final
report. This way we can see which files are built but never executed
by the test suite.
Because the --initial switch also collects files in the ccache directory
we have to point it to the build directory instead, which in turn breaks
--no-external. Instead of using --no-external in the collection step,
filter out any files not in the source tree in the final coverage job
through a path filter.
Use lcov for both Fedora and MSYS2 to create coverage reports and add a second
ci stage which merges the coverage and creates a html report using genhtml.
In the final stage, which is only run on master, the result is published on
gitlab pages.

Fix various warnings regarding unused variables, duplicated
branches etc by adjusting the ifdeffery and some missing casts.
gnulib triggers -Wduplicated-branches in one of the copied files,
disable as that just makes updating the code harder.
The warning indicating missing features are made none fatal through
pragmas. They still show but don't abort the build.

This builds glib using meson/ninja/ccache with mingw-w64 on a Windows
machine.
The CI scripts expect a gitlab runner to exist with the "win32" tag
which uses the default "cmd" shell by default.
Before running the tests pacman is invoked to update the system
(potentially including bash etc, thus the extra step)
Then a login shell is started with CHERE_INVOKING to not change the
cwd and finally the test script is executed.
