    Log Message:
    Pass the absolute/real repo path to the make install-sbbs.mk command-line

    the nested make -C call to exec/GNUmakefile (remember that thing?) fails otherwise:
    make -C /home/gitlab-runner/builds/z3jxwBK1/0/main/sbbs/sbbs/exec MAKEFLAGS= os=linux RELEASE=1 BAJAPATH=../src/sbbs3/gcc.linux.x64.exe.release/baja
    make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'ftp.bin', needed by 'all'. Stop.

    ... because make -C changes the working dir to the exec dir, so "../src/sbbs3/..." ends up being an valid path to the baja executable.
    It'd probably be good to convert REPODIR in the install makefile to an
    absolute path automatically, but this seemed like a first-level fix, at least.

    This is going to slow down the windows-x86 build (of sbbs3 solution).

    CI: run a pipeline when the CI definition itself changes

    The .rules changes: list covered the sources a build consumes -- src/,
    3rdp/, ctrl/text.dat, exec/tests/ and the makefile globs -- but not the pipeline definition. A commit touching only .gitlab-ci.yml or .gitlab-ci-unix.yml therefore matched no rule and created no pipeline at
    all, so a CI change could not test itself: it sat unvalidated until some
    later commit happened to touch src/ or 3rdp/, which is exactly when a
    mistake in it is most surprising.

    The commit that added the termgfx door jobs hit this: it changed only the
    two CI files, so nothing ran, and the jobs it defined stayed unproven.

    Match .gitlab-ci*.yml so such a commit runs the pipeline it edits. The
    glob covers both the top-level file and the included per-platform one.

    CI: build the Win32 doors

    Nothing covered the doors' MSVC builds, so three of the eight had been
    broken for a while with no pipeline to say so (128a6b52d9). One job per
    door that has an MSVC build -- the same set src\doors\build.bat calls
    buildable on Windows -- which also gives syncrpg and syncscumm their
    first CI job on any platform.

    Modelled on the .<os>-termgfx-door jobs: each door is driven through its
    own build.bat, the documented entry point that encodes its CMake flags,
    and needs nothing from the library jobs since these trees build xpdev,
    termgfx and their vendored engine as sub-targets. The Clans is the
    exception with no build.bat of its own, so it goes through the umbrella
    script, which already carries the MSBuild probe.
