In order to facilitate testing, we need to have builds for people to test.

linux and mac builds, as they are they are the easiest to get up and running
vsg and vsgXchange needs to be built on the fly until they are more widely supported downstream
make use of version and hash check to improve security
make use of caching to prevent abuse of resources and fast builds
RelWithDebInfo so that there is some debugging, including for vsg/vsgXchange

There are a few questions though which can be spun off into other tickets:

Are we okay with the fact that builds made here are named OpenMW, does this bother anyone?
All 3 major builds: windows, macos and linux must eventually be supported
Android builds are possible but we need a champion that can help there
Same with windows, we need a champion that can help make sure builds are good
For linux, initially Ubuntu builds are fine but we need to have fully generic builds, I suggest flatpak

It's still not 100% what I want.

Problems are:

flatpak build does not allow for Internet connection, as a result, we can't use Robert's custom glslang compiler thing, thus no shader compiler. Trying to build glslang from scratch and have vsg use it is a nightmare because Robert wants his version only.
macos build does no contain the necessary libs. Something has changed between upstream openmw and vsgopenmw; still needs to be investigated.
no windows builds at all, yet

Use system glslang psi29a/VulkanSceneGraph#5
