As executing our test suite is notoriously slow on Windows we use matrix
jobs in our CI systems to slice up tests and run them via multiple jobs.
On Meson this is done with a comparatively complex PowerShell invocation
as Meson didn't yet have a native way to slice tests like this.
I have upstreamed a new `--slice` option [1] that addresses this use
case though, which has been merged and released with Meson 1.8. Both
GitLab and GitHub CI have Meson 1.8.2 available by now, so let's update
the jobs to use that new option.

gitglossary documents Git pathspecs. One type of pathspec is the "glob"
pathspec, prefixed with the magic word "glob".
Regarding glob pathspecs, gitglossary says, '"**/foo" matches file or
directory "foo" anywhere, the same as pattern "foo".' That last phrase
('the same as pattern "foo") is incorrect. "**/foo" and "foo" are not
equivalent. "**/foo" matches foo anywhere, but "foo" does not.
This change removes the incorrect phrase from the glob pathspec doc.

Replace signal() with an equivalent invocation of sigaction(), but

to be interrupted when children complete still works as designed.
This change has the added benefit of using BSD signal semantics reliably

A future change will start using sigaction to setup a SIGCHLD signal
handler.
The current code uses signal(), which returns SIG_ERR (but doesn't
seem to set errno) so instruct sigaction() to do the same.
A new SA flag will be needed, so copy the one from Cygwin; note that
the sigaction() implementation that is provided won't use it, so
its value is otherwise irrelevant.

Check if "devfal" fits into an integer variable with the given
"precision", but don't check "extra", as its value is only used to clear
bits, so cannot lead to an overflow. Not checking continues to allow
e.g., using -1 to clear all bits even if the value variable has a
narrower type than intptr_t.

In 4cba20fbdc (meson: prefer shell at "/bin/sh", 2025-04-25) we have
addressed an issue where the shell path embedded into Git was looked up
via PATH, which easily led to unportable shell paths other than the
usual "/bin/sh" location. The fix was to simply add '/bin' to the search
path explicitly, which made us prefer that directory over the PATH-based
lookup.
This fix causes issues on MINGW64 though, which uses Windows-style
paths. "/bin" is not an absolute Windows-style path, but Meson expects
the directories to be absolute. This leads to the following error:
meson.build:248:15: ERROR: Search directory /bin is not an absolute path.
Fix this by instead searching for both '/bin/sh' and 'sh', which also
causes us to prefer '/bin/sh' over a PATH-based lookup. Meson does
accept that path alright on MINGW64, even though it's not an absolute
Windows-style path, either.
Furthermore, this continues to work alright with cross-files, as well,
in case one wants to explicitly override the shell path:
