[libcamera-devel] [RFC PATCH] lc-compliance: Disable clang builds

[Kieran Bingham]

On distributions with clang and gcc, the gtest library is usually
expected to be compiled with gcc. This causes a build failure due
to the abi incompatibility.

Ideally this would be solved, or detected to be incompatible, but it may
not be simple to identify the ABI used for an installed library with
meson to check if it is compatible.

Restrict lc-compliance to gcc builds only, knowing that if a fully
clang-built OS or environment later wants to enable this, a new solution
will need to be found.
