alf - since you've been digging around platform is this something that could
easily be addressed ?
or has this already been cleaned up ?

Title:
circular build-dependency between mesa, mir

Bug description:
While testing cross-building of mir, I noticed that mir and mesa have
a build-dependency loop: installing the build-dependencies of mir
installs libmirclient-dev.
This is because mir build-depends on libegl1-mesa-dev, and libegl1
-mesa-dev depends on libmirclient-dev.
The libegl1-mesa runtime package does *not* depend on libmirclient3,
so this dependency looks spurious to me. Is there a reason this
dependency loop shouldn't be broken by dropping the dep from libegl1
-mesa-dev -> libmirclient-dev? As near as I can tell, the dependency
on libmirclient-dev is because of this section of
/usr/include/EGL/eglplatform.h:
#elif defined(MIR_EGL_PLATFORM)
#include <mir_toolkit/mir_client_library.h>
typedef MirEGLNativeDisplayType EGLNativeDisplayType;
typedef void *EGLNativePixmapType;
typedef MirEGLNativeWindowType EGLNativeWindowType;
[...]
But that's optional, and anybody defining MIR_EGL_PLATFORM would
presumably need to depend on mir themselves, no?
