[igt-dev] [PATCH] drm/doc: Make igts for cross-driver stuff mandatory

Compared to the RFC[1] no changes to the patch itself, but igt moved
forward a lot:

- gitlab CI builds with: reduced configs/libraries, arm cross build
  and a sysroot build (should address all the build/cross platform
  concerns raised in the RFC discussions).

- tests reorganized into subdirectories so that the i915-gem tests
  don't clog the main/shared tests directory anymore

- quite a few more non-intel people contributing/reviewing/committing
  igt tests patches.

I think this addresses all the concerns raised in the RFC discussions,
and assuming there's enough Acks and no new issues that pop up, we can
go ahead with this.
