[OE-core] [PATCH 0/5] virgl: add SDL support and enable by default

This patchset adds two enhancements to qemu virgl support (which is
a virtualized accelerated 3D graphics support for the qemu guests):

1. SDL qemu frontend now comes with virgl fully enabled and working
(over ssh X11 forwarding as well!), so using the gtk frontend
is no longer necessary. 'oe-selftest' is adjusted to test both
frontends.

2. virgl itself is enabled by default in qemu, when 'opengl' is in
DISTRO_FEATURES. This pulls in a few components during build (particularly,
libdrm, virglrenderer and a special minimal configuration of mesa-native).
I tested the impact on build times: it is about 25-30 seconds on a 16 core
machine. 'bitbake core-image-minimal' goes from 26m45 to 27m13.

Gtk qemu frontend remains disabled by default, as it adds more to the build times.

The following changes since commit 270bd86740a080fb56d932a5c0eb70d6ce2a2b3c:

  libepoxy: enable x11 PACKAGECONFIG for native/nativesdk (2019-09-01 17:08:18 +0200)

Alexander Kanavin (5):
  bitbake.conf: propagate 'opengl' DISTRO_FEATURE to native/nativesdk
    from target
  libsdl2: enable opengl option for native/nativesdk, subject to
    'opengl' in DISTRO_FEATURES
  qemu: enable virglrenderer and glx options subject to 'opengl'
    DISTRO_FEATURE
  runqemu: add options that enable virgl with the SDL frontend
  oe-selftest: extend virgl gtk test to also check the SDL option
