### run_target
``` meson
buildtarget run_target(target_name, ...)
runtarget run_target(target_name, ...)
```
This function creates a new top-level target that runs a specified
command with the specified arguments. Like all top-level targets, this
integrates with the selected backend. For instance, with Ninja you can
run it as `ninja target_name`.
run it as `ninja target_name`. Note that a run target produces no
output as far as Meson is concerned. It is only meant for tasks such
as running a code formatter or flashing an external device's firmware
with a built file.
The script is run from an *unspecified* directory, and Meson will set
three environment variables `MESON_SOURCE_ROOT`, `MESON_BUILD_ROOT`
