Since its introduction in commit 142ca628a7 ("ui: add a D-Bus
display backend"), dbus_display1 depends on pixman.
Unfortunatly the refactor commit 1222070e77 ("meson: ensure
dbus-display generated code is built before other units")
dropped that dependency. Recently commit 6cc5a6159a ("ui/dbus:
win32 support") expose this problem:

  In file included from include/ui/console.h:4,
                   from ui/dbus.h:31,
                   from ../audio/dbusaudio.c:36:
  include/ui/qemu-pixman.h:12:10: fatal error: pixman.h: No such file or directory
     12 | #include <pixman.h>
        |          ^~~~~~~~~~

Restore the missing dependency on pixman.

I fail to understand how this would help.  dbus-display1 unit is pure
GIO/GDBus code, no pixman involved. The derived library dependency is then
used to build and link the dbus ui/ module.

audio/dbus currently requires pixman because it compiles against units from
ui/dbus, which introduces some indirect pixman dependency from ui/console.

It would be worth working on making pixman optional altogether (
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1172), I will try to look at
it.

thanks

meson dependencies

like so, also include the set of -Iinclude-path-options to use when building the items 
that use it.  Therefore, for the moment, Phil is correct.

While dbus-display1 might not use pixman itself, ui/dbus.h certainly does.
Perhaps the usage in ui/dbus.h is the greater mistake.
