The libvulkan_intel_tests (the tests library) is missing the WSI (et
al) dependencies. A quick check is to add anv_deps instead of
hand-rolling it.

Suspecting that the dep_llvm in libgallium
(src/gallium/aux/meson.build) should be switched to whole_libraries.
As-is things get discarded (since they're unused), when creating the
static library. Thus as the final stage creating the pipe-driver DSOs
we're missing the -lLLVMfoo

Not 100% sure on the latter one - will need to play with it.
