[cairo] cairo snapshot 1.15.12 now available

Thu Apr 12 05:48:27 UTC 2018

Federico has some additional patches for improving the testsuite that
I've been looking at, but I think they need a bit more time to study so
opted to finish up this release first.  I'll plan on another snapshot in
a month or two.
