briaguya e1462b07e6 fix and improve test builds on distros workflow (#6748)
* Make distro test matrix dynamic

Resolve Ubuntu LTS and Fedora releases from endoflife.date at workflow
run time so the matrix tracks in-support versions automatically, and use
Debian's rolling oldstable/stable/testing tags. Switch install-step
gating from image-string equality to a packageManager key on each
distro entry. Drop the fedora:39 nlohmann workaround now that fedora:39
is no longer in the matrix.

* Bootstrap git and read apt deps from apt-deps.txt

Add a per-package-manager step that installs git first so the checkout
can fetch submodules inside the container, then move checkout above the
main install steps so they have repo files on disk. The apt install now
sources its package list from .github/workflows/apt-deps.txt, matching
generate-builds.yml. Drop the redundant echo-the-command-then-run-it
lines from each install step.

* Move libzip deps into apt-deps.txt

The libzip family (libzip-dev, zipcmp, zipmerge, ziptool) was previously
appended to each workflow's apt install line because the appimage build
needs libzip without crypto support. Add it to apt-deps.txt instead and
have the appimage build job apt-remove libzip-dev before its from-source
rebuild, mirroring the existing tinyxml2 pattern.

* Drop libopengl-dev from distro test workflow

libglew-dev (in apt-deps.txt) already pulls in the OpenGL headers via
libgl-dev / libglvnd-dev, and generate-builds.yml has been building
without libopengl-dev for a long time. The line was originally added on
a guess; removing it brings the test workflow into alignment.

* Move git, cmake, lsb-release into apt-deps.txt

These are real build-time deps (git for submodule checkout, cmake for
the build, lsb-release for soh CMakeLists distro detection). Moving them
into apt-deps.txt makes the file a single canonical answer to what apt
packages are needed to build, and reduces the distro test workflow's
apt install line to just the compiler plus the file.

* Move apt deps file out of .github and point BUILDING.md at it

Rename .github/workflows/apt-deps.txt to linux-build-deps/apt.txt so the
canonical list lives at a path users can reasonably be told to look at.
Update both workflows to the new path. BUILDING.md grows a "Clone the
repo and enter the directory" section before Install dependencies so
its apt commands can source from the file via $(cat ...) — the clone
snippet is dropped from the later Build block to avoid duplication.

* Add cmake version verification section to BUILDING.md

Older distros ship cmake too old for this project; point users at how to
check their version against the project's minimum and link to a few ways
to install a newer cmake (pypi, kitware apt repo, Homebrew).

* Add cmake verify/update step to distro test workflow

ubuntu:22.04 and debian:oldstable ship cmake older than the project's
minimum (3.26+), failing at configure time. Add a step before Build SoH
that compares the installed cmake to the project minimum and, if too
old, installs a newer cmake via pipx (per-distro pipx package). The new
cmake's bin dir is added to GITHUB_PATH so the Build SoH step picks it
up. Mirrors the BUILDING.md guidance pointing users at pypi cmake.

* Set ccache on PATH once per job in generate-builds

Replace the repeated per-step `export PATH="/usr/lib/ccache:..."` with
a single "Add ccache to PATH" step in each Linux job that writes both
ccache dirs to GITHUB_PATH. From there it persists for every subsequent
step in that job, so each from-source build (SDL, SDL_net, tinyxml2,
libzip) and the final cmake compile pick up ccache automatically.

* Extract tinyxml2 from-source build into a composite action

generate-builds had the same 13-line tinyxml2 install block in both the
generate-soh-otr and build-linux jobs, and the distro test workflow is
about to need the same logic conditionally. Move it into a composite
action at .github/actions/install-tinyxml2 and have generate-builds use
it. The action only builds and installs from source; removing the
distro package stays in the caller since that command is package-manager
specific.

* Add tinyxml2 troubleshooting tip to BUILDING.md

Older distros ship tinyxml2 pre-10.0.0 which doesn't include the cmake
config file the project's find_package call needs. Point users at either
brew or the install-tinyxml2 composite action script when they hit the
"Could not find a package configuration file" error.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Install latest tinyxml2 in distro test workflow when missing

ubuntu:22.04 ships libtinyxml2-dev 9.0.0, which is before tinyxml2
started providing a cmake config file, so find_package(tinyxml2) fails.
Add a step (apt-only) that checks for tinyxml2Config.cmake on disk and,
if missing, removes the distro package and calls the install-tinyxml2
composite action to build 10.0.0 from source.

* Extract SDL2_net from-source build into a composite action

Same shape as the install-tinyxml2 action: generate-builds had identical
SDL2_net install blocks in both the generate-soh-otr and build-linux
jobs, and the distro test workflow is about to need the same logic
conditionally. Move it into a composite action at
.github/actions/install-sdl2-net. The cp of /usr/local/lib/libSDL* into
the multiarch lib dir stays in the caller since it's appimage-specific.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Refactor cmake-config troubleshooting tip and add SDL2_net

Restructure the troubleshooting tip into a generic "older distros ship
packages without the cmake config files" framing with a list of known
failing package versions, then two paths to install a newer version:
Homebrew (with a note about CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH) or building from source
using the install-* composite actions as reference. Add SDL2_net to the
list alongside tinyxml2.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Install latest SDL2_net in distro test workflow when missing

ubuntu:22.04 ships libsdl2-net-dev 2.0.x, which is before SDL2_net
started providing a cmake config file, so find_package(SDL2_net) fails
silently and the link step errors on the missing SDL2_net::SDL2_net
target. Mirror the tinyxml2 pattern: an apt-only check for
sdl2_net-config.cmake on disk that triggers the install-sdl2-net
composite action when missing.

* Document minimum GCC and Clang versions

Minimums pinned empirically by walking up versions on the test-gcc-10
test branch until each compiler built clean. The version numbers live
in linux-build-deps/minimum-{gcc,clang}-version.txt so the workflow can
read them and BUILDING.md can link to a single source of truth.

Test runs that pinned the floors:
- GCC 9 failure (missing <compare> header):
  https://github.com/briaguya0/Shipwright/actions/runs/27491491936
- GCC 10 success:
  https://github.com/briaguya0/Shipwright/actions/runs/27490774081
- Clang 15 failure (structured-binding-capture in lambda):
  https://github.com/briaguya0/Shipwright/actions/runs/27491715930
- Clang 16 success:
  https://github.com/briaguya0/Shipwright/actions/runs/27492790573

* Add verify-compiler and install-newer-compiler actions

Two composite actions that work together to keep the compiler used by
the build at or above the project minimum. verify-compiler reads
linux-build-deps/minimum-${compiler}-version.txt, compares against the
installed default, and emits four outputs: needs_install,
available_in_distro, cc, cxx, version. install-newer-compiler consumes
those and installs ${compiler}-${version} either from the distro repos
(apt or zypper) or via apt.llvm.org for clang on apt distros. Any
combination without a known install path fails with "Minimum version
not readily available. An alternative installation method for
${compiler} ${version} is needed."

Validated on the test-verify-compiler branch via two dedicated test
workflows that exercise every reachable matrix combination and assert
expected outputs / install outcomes:

- verify-compiler: https://github.com/briaguya0/Shipwright/actions/runs/27510863067
- install-newer-compiler: https://github.com/briaguya0/Shipwright/actions/runs/27512420765

* Wire verify-compiler and install-newer-compiler into distro test workflow

Between the dependency-install step and the cmake verify step, run
verify-compiler and (conditionally) install-newer-compiler so distros
that ship a compiler below the project minimum get a newer one. Build
SoH's CC/CXX env now reads the resolved binary names from
verify-compiler's outputs instead of using matrix.cc/cxx directly, so a
freshly-installed gcc-N/clang-N actually gets used by cmake.

* Add fmt/clang consteval workaround tip to BUILDING.md

Point users at the fmtlib/fmt#4807 issue and the
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-DFMT_CONSTEVAL=constexpr workaround when they hit the
"call to consteval function" error while building with clang. Affects
distros that ship libfmt 10.x with newer clang.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Probe fmt/clang consteval compat and apply workaround when needed

Self-checking version of the BUILDING.md tip: between the dep-install
steps and Build SoH, try to compile the minimal repro from
fmtlib/fmt#4807. If the compile fails, the build job adds
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=-DFMT_CONSTEVAL=constexpr to cmake's invocation;
otherwise the flag stays empty. The probe uses the resolved CXX from
verify-compiler, so it works regardless of whether the compiler came
from the distro or a freshly-installed newer version.

* Move Arch packages into linux-build-deps/pacman.txt

Mirror the apt pattern: extract the Arch package list to
linux-build-deps/pacman.txt (everything except the compiler) and point
both BUILDING.md and the distro test workflow at it. Also brings the
workflow's Arch install up to parity with BUILDING.md — it was missing
opusfile and libvorbis.

Add linux-build-deps/README.md explaining that apt.txt is verified on
every push but the other per-distro lists can drift, and inviting PRs /
issues / Discord messages when something's missing.

* Move Fedora packages into linux-build-deps/dnf.txt

Mirror the apt/pacman pattern: extract the Fedora package list to
linux-build-deps/dnf.txt (everything except the compiler and the
gcc-c++ companion package) and point both BUILDING.md and the distro
test workflow at it. Brings the workflow's Fedora install up to parity
with BUILDING.md — it was missing SDL2_net-devel, nlohmann-json-devel,
opusfile-devel, and libvorbis-devel. Also drops the leftover wget that
was only needed for an old from-source workaround.

* Move openSUSE packages into linux-build-deps/zypper.txt

Mirror the apt/pacman/dnf pattern: extract the openSUSE package list
to linux-build-deps/zypper.txt and point the distro test workflow at
it. The list adds SDL2_net-devel and the audio family (libogg-devel,
libvorbis-devel, libopus-devel, opusfile-devel) that the workflow's
inline list was missing — package names verified in a Tumbleweed
distrobox.

Also adds a new openSUSE section to BUILDING.md (it wasn't there
before), with libstdc++-devel in the clang line because clang on
openSUSE doesn't pull in libstdc++ headers transitively the way it
does on other distros.

* Add in-support openSUSE Leap releases to the distro test matrix

Fetch openSUSE cycles from endoflife.date and include any with an EOL
date in the future as opensuse/leap:${cycle} images alongside the
rolling Tumbleweed entry. Today that's just Leap 16.0 (15.6 went EOL
2026-04-30); new Leap releases will appear automatically as they ship
and old ones drop off as they EOL.

* Move Nix flake into linux-build-deps/flake.nix

Extract the flake.nix content out of BUILDING.md's inline code block
into linux-build-deps/flake.nix and update the Nix section to point at
it. Users run `nix develop ./linux-build-deps` from the repo root
instead of copying the flake out to a file they have to maintain
themselves.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Add build-nix job to distro test workflow

Verifies that `nix develop ./linux-build-deps` produces a shell that
builds SoH. Runs on its own (no distro matrix) and uses
cachix/install-nix-action per nix.dev's CI guidance.

* Drop LINUX_RUNNER override from distro test workflow

vars.LINUX_RUNNER isn't referenced anywhere else in .github/ — the
override is dead code. Replace all three call sites with plain
ubuntu-latest.
