      Pull drm ci scripts from Dave Airlie:
       "This is a bunch of ci integration for the freedesktop gitlab instance
        where we currently do upstream userspace testing on diverse sets of
        GPU hardware. From my perspective I think it's an experiment worth
        going with and seeing how the benefits/noise playout keeping these
        files useful.
      
        Ideally I'd like to get this so we can do pre-merge testing on PRs
        eventually.
      
        Below is some info from danvet on why we've ended up making the
        decision and how we can roll it back if we decide it was a bad plan.
      
        Why in upstream?
      
         - like documentation, testcases, tools CI integration is one of these
           things where you can waste endless amounts of time if you
           accidentally have a version that doesn't match your source code
      
         - but also like the above, there's a balance, this is the initial cut
           of what we think makes sense to keep in sync vs out-of-tree,
           probably needs adjustment
      
         - gitlab supports out-of-repo gitlab integration and that's what's
           been used for the kernel in drm, but it results in per-driver
           fragmentation and lots of duplicated effort. the simple act of
           smashing an arbitrary winner into a topic branch already started
           surfacing patches on dri-devel and sparking good cross driver team
           discussions
      
        Why gitlab?
      
         - it's not any more shit than any of the other CI
      
         - drm userspace uses it extensively for everything in userspace, we
           have a lot of people and experience with this, including
           integration of hw testing labs
      
         - media userspace like gstreamer is also on gitlab.fd.o, and there's
           discussion to extend this to the media subsystem in some fashion
      
        Can this be shared?
      
         - there's definitely a pile of code that could move to scripts/ if
           other subsystem adopt ci integration in upstream kernel git. other
           bits are more drm/gpu specific like the igt-gpu-tests/tools
           integration
      
         - docker images can be run locally or in other CI runners
      
        Will we regret this?
      
         - it's all in one directory, intentionally, for easy deletion
      
         - probably 1-2 years in upstream to see whether this is worth it or a
           Big Mistake. that's roughly what it took to _really_ roll out solid
           CI in the bigger userspace projects we have on gitlab.fd.o like
           mesa3d"
