weston fails to build with neatvnc 0.8.0

Original bug report: https://bugs.debian.org/1065816

Hello,

neatvnc 0.8.0 was uploaded in Debian/sid which makes weston not buildable in Debian.

Based on the neatvnc's changelog, the unique breaking change is: "nvnc_client_get_hostname has been replaced with nvnc_client_get_address" since this is not used in weston, increasing the max version at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/weston/-/blob/main/libweston/backend-vnc/meson.build?ref_type=heads#L6 is enough to fix the build.

I don't know what is the policy here, I am wondering if this arbitrary upper limit of required version of neatvnc is needed.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
