The commit style checker had a hard-coded assumption that the changes
were made against the master branch. For backports that is not the case
though and that's why the script fails for backports as soon as the
master and the backport branch have diverged.
This new check will fail if there is a c++ source code file that is not
formatted according to our project's formatting standards (specified via
.clang-format file).
This commit introduces a new plugin framework into the codebase of the
Mumble client. Note that "plugin" here really refers to a (more or less)
general purpose plugin and is therefore not to be confused with the
previously available positional data plugins (only responsible for
fetching positional data from a running game and passing that to
Mumble).
The plugin interface is written in C, removing the compiler-dependence
the old "plugins" had. Instead plugins can now be written in an
arbitrary language as long as that language is capable of being compiled
into a shared library and also being capable of being C-compatible.
As already indicated a plugin is essentially a shared library that
provides certain functions that allow Mumble to interface with it.
Inside Mumble the so-called PluginManager is responsible for managing
the plugins and relaying events to the respective callbacks. Plugins
themselves can also interact with Mumble on their own initiative by
using the provided API functions.

Tests that require an active internet connection will now be omitted on
CI as they recently caused a bunch of CI jobs to fail just because some
external server was unreachable.
It seems that nobody read the comment that was inserted into the PR.
Thus this was now changed to a checkbox that will be visible after
having created the PR.
Now that Travis CI decided to stop offering their services for free, we
had to look for an alternative solution. GitHub Actions seems to fit the
picture really well and has the benefit of being tightly integrated into
GitHub (obviously).
For now only shared builds for Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 are included. The
scripts and the framework for also including static builds is part of
this commit as well but as it stands the static build always failed and
therefore it was given up upon for now.
Adding support for other OS will require a few tweaks and a couple of
new scripts but in general the framework was built with this kind of
extension in mind.
