Running `touch` on a tracked file in Git, to update its timestamp, and
then running `meson dist` would cause dist to fail:
ERROR: Repository has uncommitted changes that will not be included in the dist tarball
Use --allow-dirty to ignore the warning and proceed anyway
Unlike `git status` and `git diff`, `git diff-index` doesn't refresh the
index before comparing, so stat changes are assumed to imply content
changes. Run `git update-index -q --refresh` first to refresh the index.

This replaces all of the Apache blurbs at the start of each file with an
`# SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0` string. It also fixes existing
uses to be consistent in capitalization, and to be placed above any
copyright notices.
This removes nearly 3000 lines of boilerplate from the project (only
python files), which no developer cares to look at.
SPDX is in common use, particularly in the Linux kernel, and is the
recommended format for Meson's own `project(license: )` field
And avoid passing variables around several functions just to finally get
where they need to be. These function signatures were kind of ugly...
Also the use of dataclasses makes a big chunk of this file now typed
properly.
We need to remember its value when reconfiguring, but the Build object
is not reused, only coredata is.
This also makes CLI more consistent by allowing `-Dvsenv=true` syntax.
Fixes: #11309
Instead of reading intro-buildoptions.json, a giant json file containing
every option ever + its current value, use the private file that is
internally used by msetup for e.g. --wipe to restore settings.
This accurately tracks exactly the options specified on the command
line, and avoids lengthy summary messages containing all the overridden
defaults.
It also avoids passing potentially incompatible options, such as
explictly specifying -Dpython.install_env while also having a non-empty
-Dpython.{x}libdir
Fixes#10181
Fixes various inconsistencies:
- gitattributes is respected
- export-subst
- export-ignore
- submodules with relative paths are not checked out relative to the
local clone (which does not work anyway)
- no need to manually remove gitfiles with inaccurate heuristics

"meson setup" is resolving symlinks for the build directory in
validate_core_dirs. For consistency with it, do the same when
the build directory is passed via -C to devenv, dist, init, install
and test.
This ensures for example that the path to test dependencies is
computed correctly in "meson test".

This is problematic when we meson is installed in the different
root(say C:) while building from another root(say D:).
This is how it is done in mesonpep517 and causes problems
because of that.
On Windows this would fail because of missing DLL:
```
mylib = library(...)
exe = executable(..., link_with: mylib)
meson.add_install_script(exe)
```
The reason is on Windows we cannot rely on rpath to find libraries from
build directory, they are searched in $PATH. We already have all that
mechanism in place for custom_target() using ExecutableSerialisation
class, so reuse it for install/dist/postconf scripts too.
This has bonus side effect to also use exe_wrapper for those scripts.
Fixes: #8187
Currently mesonlib does some import tricks to figure out whether it
needs to use windows or posix specific functions. This is a little
hacky, but works fine. However, the way the typing stubs are implemented
for the msvcrt and fnctl modules will cause mypy to fail on the other
platform, since the functions are not implemented.
To aleviate this (and for slightly cleaner design), I've split mesonlib
into a pacakge with three modules. A universal module contains all of
the platform agnositc code, a win32 module contains window specific
code, a posix module contains the posix specific code, and a platform
module contains no-op implementations. Then the package's __init__ file
imports all of the universal functions and all of the functions from the
approriate platform module, or the no-op versions as fallbacks. This
makes mypy happy, and avoids `if`ing all over the code to switch between
the platform specific code.
This allows the NINJA environment variable to support all the Windows special
cases, especially allowing an absolute path without extension.

Since we parse buildoptions.json to pass options, we end up passing
-Dbuildtype and also -Doptimization and -Ddebug which triggers the
warning:
WARNING: Recommend using either -Dbuildtype or -Doptimization + -Ddebug [...]
Filter out buildtype. It is redundant.
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
Debian's lintian checker complaints when upstream tarballs contain an
.hgtags file.
This excludes ".hg[a-z]*". This is mostly consistent with the git
handling in del_gitfiles() which deletes .git*. hg archive --help shows
an example of -X ".hg*". However, instead of ".hg*", I have used
".hg[a-z]*" to keep the automatically added hg_archival.txt. This file
may be useful to link the tarball to the Mercurial revision for either
manual inspection or in case any code interprets it for a --version or
similar.
This also excludes .hgignore and other things like .hgflow, which seems
desirable.
