There is no such thing as a `LINUX_DOCKER_TRIGGER` platform target nor expected OS_NAME.
BuildDefinition expects the docker publish trigger to happen for native_static
no_skip is thus computed automatically depending on project being our or not.
We dont want to skip configure on our own projetcs (limited impact, simplifies deps mgmt)
CoreKiwix.xcframework is the packaging format required by Kiwix apple (macOS/iOS) reader for libkiwix.
Naming will hopefully be revisited later (libkiwix.xcframework?)
This folder is a combination of all static archive (*.a): dependencies and libkiwix itself
for all apple-supported platforms: macOS x86_64, macOS arm64, iOS arm64 and iOS x86_64.
It also includes the headers.
Note: while iOS archs are separated in the framework, the macOS archs are bundled as a fat binary.
This thus adds:
- A new `apple_all_static` target that lists mentioned sub-platforms.
- A new `AppleXCFramework` virtual dependency and builder
- requires `libkiwix`
- merges the archives into one per target
- creates the fat binary for macOS
- creates the xcframework
- `libkiwix_xcframework-VERSION.tar.gz` because platformname is xcframework
- it only contains the xcframework but in libkiwix_xcframework-VERSION/lib folder
Because with this virtual target, there are no other files
- requires a new `xcframework` platform_name in builddef
- subplatforms deps and macOS/iOS _ok files to make_deps_archive

When we use `--disable-tools` (ie, when we are cross-compiling), ICU
will build the data only if it detects we are cross-compiling.
This make sens until we cross-compiling for wasm.
Wasm output is a script file with the interpreter in the sdk we have
installed. So ICU's configure can run the test binary and so doesn't detect
we are cross-compiling.
So we have to patch ICU Makefile to make it build the ICU data anyway.
ICU is used to:
- List locales (`locales_tree`)
- Get information about those locales in different languages (`lang_tree`)
- Remove accents (`translit`)
Tracing ICU without custom data, we also load `likelySubtags` and
`metadata`. Not sure why and what happen when missing but let's be
conservatives and include them.
This target fails on the CI because of conflict between the builded
libraries (lzma, libz) and native library.
As they are both for the same arch but with different libc, python tries
to load them and fails.
There is a real bug somewhere in our toolchain but we need to build for
x86_64 musl right now and this is done in `x86-64_musl_mixed` which pass.
So let's remove it for now.
(`x86-64_musl_dyn` fails with the docker image. It is ok with native
(fedora 38) system)
