[gimp] devel-docs: add CI info in developer docs.

    devel-docs: add CI info in developer docs.
    
    Also remove the now deprecated Jenkins tutorial. We have not had this CI
    system running for some time now, and the Gitlab CI has totally replaced
    it.

 ## GIMP extensions (*.gex*)
 
+## Continuous Integration
+
+For most of its continuous integration (macOS excepted), GIMP project
+uses Gitlab CI. We recommend looking the file
+[.gitlab-ci.yml](/.gitlab-ci.yml) which is the startup script.
+
+The main URL for our CI system is
+[build.gimp.org](https://build.gimp.org) which redirects to Gitlab
+pipelines page.
+
+Note that it is important to keep working CI jobs for a healthy code
+source. Therefore when you push some code which breaks the CI (you
+should receive a notification email when you do so), you are expected to
+look at the failed jobs' logs, try and understand the issue(s) and fix
+them (or ask for help). Don't just shrug this because it works locally
+(the point of the CI is to build in more conditions than developers
+usually do locally).
+
+Of course, sometimes CI failures are out of our control, for instance
+when downloaded dependencies have issues, or because of runner issues.
+You should still check that these were reported and that
+packagers/maintainers of these parts are aware and working on a fix.
+
+### Automatic pipelines
+
+At each commit pushed to the repository, several pipelines are currently
+running, such as:
+
+- Debian testing autotools and meson builds (autotools is still the
+  official build system while meson is experimental).
+- Windows builds (cross or natively compiled).
+
+Additionally, we test build with alternative tools or options (e.g. with
+`Clang` instead of `gcc` compiler) or jobs which may take much longer,
+such as package creation as scheduled pipelines (once every few days).
+
+The above listing is not necessarily exhaustive nor is it meant to be.
+Only the [.gitlab-ci.yml](/.gitlab-ci.yml) script is meant to be
+authoritative. The top comment in this file should stay as exhaustive
+as possible.
+
+### Manual pipelines
+
+It is possible to trigger pipelines manually, for instance with specific
+jobs, if you have the "*Developer*" Gitlab role:
+
+1. go to the [Pipelines](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/pipelines)
+   page.
+2. Hit the "*Run pipeline*" button.
+3. Choose the branch or tag you wish to build.
+4. Add relevant variables. A list of variables named `GIMP_CI_*` are
+   available (just set them to any value) and will trigger specific job
+   lists. These variables are listed in the top comment of
+   [.gitlab-ci.yml](/.gitlab-ci.yml).
+
+### Merge request pipelines
+
+Special pipelines happen for merge request code. For instance, these
+also include a (non-perfect) code style check.
+
+Additionally you can trigger Windows installer or flatpack standalone
+packages to be generated with the MR code as explained in
+[gitlab-mr.md](gitlab-mr.md).
+
+### Release pipeline
+
+Special pipelines happen when pushing git `tags`. These should be tested
+before a release to avoid unexpected release-time issues, as explained
+in [release-howto.txt](release-howto.txt).
+
+### Exception: macOS
+
+As an exception, macOS is currently built with the `Circle-CI` service.
+The whole CI scripts and documentation can be found in the dedicated
+[gimp-macos-build](https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/gimp-macos-build)
+repository.
+
+Eventually we want to move this pipeline to Gitlab as well.
