This way, developers compile toxcore, toxav, and toxencryptsave as C++ at
least once at home, reducing the likelyhood of running into travis
failures where we compile as C++ in the windows build.
This allows us and users to reproducibly build verified versions of the
library with checksums. It will power the toktok-stack continuous build
with checked-in checksums at specific git revisions.
Still run all the jobs during cron and regular push to branch. We
disabled build for push to branch, so cron is the only place where all
builds are run. This also means we need to worry less about spending time
in nightly builds, because they occur only once a day.

This isn't adding value. We're going to redo the whole rpc test framework
in the future, after a lot of refactoring that the hstox test currently
just stands in the way of.
The ping.api.h file looks rather ugly, but it works. This is an exercise
in finding the complete set of use cases needed from apidsl for toxcore.
We'll try to make things work as much as possible, and then make apidsl
better and make the .api.h files pretty.
To prevent top-level linking of all libraries.
Problem: ```pkg-config --libs toxcore``` returns all libraries that are
required by all libtox*.so libraries. This is wrong because for a
dynamically linked executable only top-level libraries need to be
supplied. ```pkg-config --libs --static toxcore``` should return all
libraries for the statically linked executable.
For example, the ToxBot https://github.com/JFreegman/ToxBot executable
uses pkg-config and is linked with the opus library, which is wrong.
Based on #533.
This basically means: try until you run out of time (50 minutes on
Travis). On Linux, we really want the tests to pass, so there is no point
in limiting the number of retries. On windows, we don't retry, on FreeBSD
it's limited to 1.
