Re: gnulib-tool.py speeds up continuous integrations

[Simon Josefsson]

I forgot to mention: the pattern to provide re-usable GitLab CI/CD
definitions that I'm inspired by is Debian's pipeline project:

https://salsa.debian.org/salsa-ci-team/pipeline/

It is easy to setup a new project to use their reusable pipeline -- just
add the CI/CD configuration file setting pointing to their job file --
and gives a broad configurable and tweakable pipeline.  Of course, this
is only for building Debian packages, so it is a narrow focus.

I'm thinking we could do the same but for any project using gnulib.
Within some reasonable limit and assumptions, but the majority of
projects mentioned already are similar enough for this to be possible
relatively easily.

I'm thinking it should be sufficient to add gnu-ci.yml@gnulib/pipeline
(or similar) as a CI/CD configuration file setting to achieve this.
