This PR significantly improves the handling of the boost library
tags and also ensures that the found libraries are always compatible
(have the same ABI tag). The current setup can also be extended to
filter for additional features (static linking with the runtime, etc.).
Additionally, BOOST_ROOT is better supported (it is now guaranteed
that all found files belong to a single root directory).
Finally, boost.py is now fully annotated (and checked with mypy).
This leads to better version parsing. An concrete example use case is
llc. When invoking llc with "--version", the output is
```
LLVM (http://llvm.org/):
LLVM version 9.0.1
...
```
The old version parsing recognizes the dot in the first line as version.
This commit also tries to adapt the two regexes to each other.

Sometimes qt can be installed not as framework on MacOS. One way to
achieve this behaviour is to use conan package manager.
Allow falling back to simple library search if framework was
not found. In addition, allow to find the debug version of qt debug
libraries which have "_debug" suffix added to them.
Fixes#5091
I've tested this on FreeBSD, and dragonfly's userland is close enough
I'm willing to call it good without testing. OpenBSD and NetBSD also
have a zlib in their base configurations, but I'm not confident enough
to enable those without testing.
This comes pre-installed, but currently we don't have a way to detect it
without relying on pkg-config or cmake. This is only valid with the
apple clang-based compilers, as they do some special magic to get
headers.
There is a comment saying we do it because we used to do it. But it's
wrong and lead to using system library when cross compiling.
Factor out the code we use to find pkg-config, because it is the same
use-case.
The CMake config files / modules have to be checked
case insensitive in some cases, otherwise some dependencies
will not be found even though they are installed.
Instead of using dependencies as their own factories, which is rather
odd, lets just add a dedicated DependencyFactory class. This should be
able to take over for a lot of the factory type dependencies really
easily, and reduce the amount of code we have.
Currently PkgConfig takes language as a keyword parameter in position 3,
while the others take it as positional in position 2. Because most
dependencies don't actually set a language (they use C style linking),
using a positional argument makes more sense. ExtraFrameworkDependencies
is even more different, and duplicates some arguments from the base
ExternalDependency class.
For later changes I'm planning to make having all of the dependencies
use the same signature is really, really helpful.
This moves most of the execution code from the CMakeInterpreter
into CMakeExecutor. Also, CMakeTraceParser is now responsible
for determining the trace cmd arguments.
fixes#6096.
Didn't use CMake because Curses is a real corner-case for CMake that
would require Curses-specific enhancements to Meson's CMake interface.
The latest Windows 10 release in May 2019 added zero-sized files that
act as stubs which when launched from cmd.exe spawn the Windows Store
to install those apps. This also includes python.exe and python3.exe:
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/python/python-in-the-windows-10-may-2019-update/
Unfortunately, `import('python').find_installation('python3')` will
then think that python3.exe is available on Windows. Or, worse, if the
user has a fresh installation of Windows 10 and then installs the
Python 3 using the official installer (not the Windows Store app), we
will *still* pickup this stub because it will be first in `PATH`.
Always remove the WindowsApps directory from `PATH` while searching.

declare_dependencies
This allows dependencies declared in subprojects to set variables, and
for those variables to be accessed via the get_variable method, just
like those from pkg-config and cmake. This makes it easier to use
projects from subprojects in a polymorphic manner, lowering the
distinction between a subproject and an external dependency every
further.
