Subject: [PATCH] giscanner: add --use-binary-wrapper option
With this option, giscanner will use a wrapper executable to run
binaries it's producing, instead of running them directly. This
is useful when binaries are cross-compiled and cannot be run directly,
but they can be run using for example QEMU emulation.
Upstream-Status: Pending [review on oe-core list]
