By generating stubs using https://github.com/hpvb/dynload-wrapper we
can dynamically load libpulse and libasound on systems where it is available.
Both are still a build-time requirement but no longer a run-time dependency.
For maintenance purposes the wrappers should not need to be re-generated
unless we want to bump pulse or asound to an incompatible version. It is
unlikely we will want to do this any time soon.
This closes#20978
Configured for a max line length of 120 characters.
psf/black is very opinionated and purposely doesn't leave much room for
configuration. The output is mostly OK so that should be fine for us,
but some things worth noting:
- Manually wrapped strings will be reflowed, so by using a line length
of 120 for the sake of preserving readability for our long command
calls, it also means that some manually wrapped strings are back on
the same line and should be manually merged again.
- Code generators using string concatenation extensively look awful,
since black puts each operand on a single line. We need to refactor
these generators to use more pythonic string formatting, for which
many options are available (`%`, `format` or f-strings).
- CI checks and a pre-commit hook will be added to ensure that future
buildsystem changes are well-formatted.
The reordering of the SConscript includes allows to ensure that
stuff like the builtin zlib headers will be available for libpng.
Also moved glew back into global env, otherwise windows seems
not to find it... Kind of shooting in the dark with this multi-env
setup.
