zipapp only has a single entry point, so only the `meson` command will
work. `mesontest`, `mesonconf`, `mesonintrospect` won't, which is
terrible, really.
Ideally we should have a single entry point for all these instead, but
until that happens, we should not recommend zipapps.
It's much faster to do 'if a in dict' instead of 'if a in dict.keys()',
since the latter constructs an iterator and walks that iterator and then
tests equality at each step, and the former does a single hash lookup.
The intel fortran compiler "ifort" was not listed in the list of
default fortran compilers. This caused it to not be found unless
explicitly set via the FC.
This uses the ABC's in collections to implement an OrderedSet class.
Internally an OrderedDict is still wrapped so that the ordering is
maintained, this adds the full interface and behavior of an Set, but
with ordering by first insertion.
This allows us to more easily have the documentation in sync with
the source code as people will have to document new features etc
right at the time where they implement it.
Using Meson from outside a git repo results in an error when trying to
resolve submodule subprojects. Running git from inside subproject root
should be enough to fix it.

After an initial checkout, submodules aren’t initialized and thus trying
to update them fails.

Sometimes you want to link to a C++ library that exports C API, which
means the linker must link in the C++ stdlib, and we must use a C++
compiler for linking. The same is also applicable for objc/objc++ etc,
so we can keep using clike_langs for the priority order.

Ideally, all dependency objects should support this, but it's a lot of
work and isn't supported by all dependency types (like frameworks and
pkg-config), so for now just enable it for external libraries.
Grammatically, this full stop isn't needed and with file names it has a
potential to be confusing:
Installing /foo/bar/filename.1 to /foo/bar/dirname.
The full stop caused me to do a double-take more than once, so let's drop it.
