I've now added: bison curl cyrus-sasl fontconfig freetype2 gnutls
nettle png usbredir
I think this should give a decent starting point and can post a patch
to add .cirrus.yml, then someone in the GitHub qemu organization would
have to add Cirrus CI for it to start running when commits happen.

For FreeBSD Cirrus CI spins up a VM (it doesn't run the test in a
jail/container) and supports a configurable CPU count. I changed it to
specify 8 vCPUs and ran a -j8 build/test in about 15 minutes - here's
a link to the run: https://cirrus-ci.com/task/6214818623127552
