Store the MSVC compiler target architecture ('x86', 'x64' or 'ARM' (this
is ARM64, I believe)), rather than just if it's x64 or not.
The regex used for target architecture should be ok, based on this list
of [1] version outputs, but we assume x86 if no match, for safety's
sake.

Also detect arch even if cl outputs version to stdout.
Ditto for clang-cl
Future work: is_64 is now only used in get_instruction_set_args()
Because we need to inherit them in some cases, and python's
keyword-or-positional arguments make this really painful, especially
with inheritance. They do this in two ways:
1) If you want to intercept the arguments you need to check for both a
keyword and a positional argument, because you could get either. Then
you need to make sure that you only pass one of those down to the
next layer.
2) After you do that, if the layer below you decides to do the same
thing, but uses the other form (you used keyword by the lower level
uses positional or vice versa), then you'll get a TypeError since two
layers down got the argument as both a positional and a keyword.
All of this is bad. Fortunately python 3.x provides a mechanism to solve
this, keyword only arguments. These arguments cannot be based
positionally, the interpreter will give us an error in that case.
I have made a best effort to do this correctly, and I've verified it
with GCC, Clang, ICC, and MSVC, but there are other compilers like Arm
and Elbrus that I don't have access to.
Handle clang's cl or clang-cl being in PATH, or set in CC/CXX
Future work: checking the name of the executable here seems like a bad idea.
These compilers will fail to be detected if they are renamed.
v2:
Update compiler.get_argument_type() test
Fix comparisons of id inside CCompiler, backends and elsewhere
v3:
ClangClCPPCompiler should be a subclass of ClangClCCompier, as well
Future work: mocking in test_find_library_patterns() is effected, as we
now test for a subclass, rather than self.id in CCompiler.get_library_naming()
Replace several checks against GCC_MINGW or (GCC_MINGW, GCC_CYGWIN) with
is_windows_compiler instead, so that clang and other gcc-like compilers
using MinGW work appropriately with vs_module_defs, c_winlibs, and
cpp_winlibs.
Fixes#4434.
* Enums are strongly typed and make the whole
`gcc_type`/`clang_type`/`icc_type` distinction
redundant.
* Enums also allow extending via member functions,
which makes the code more generalisable.
It's fairly common on Linux and *BSD platforms to check for these
attributes existence, so it makes sense to me to have this checking
build into meson itself. Autotools also has a builtin for handling
these, and by building them in we can short circuit cases that we know
that these don't exist (MSVC).
Additionally this adds support for two common MSVC __declspec
attributes, dllimport and dllexport. This implements the declspec
version (even though GCC has an __attribute__ version that both it and
clang support), since GCC and Clang support the MSVC version as well.
Thus it seems reasonable to assume that most projects will use the
__declspec version over teh __attribute__ version.
* The current version matching logic is brittle
with respect to Clang. LLVM and Apple Clang use
slightly different but nowadays overlapping
version ranges. Instead, we now just check whether
the compiler supports the given `-std=` variant
and try its respective fallback instead of
testing version ranges.
* GCC 4.8 and Clang 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 only understand
`-std={c,gnu}++1y` for enabling C++14 dialects.
GCC 4.8 is especially important as it is the basis
of RHEL/CentOS 7.

According to Python documentation[1] dirname and basename
are defined as follows:
os.path.dirname() = os.path.split()[0]
os.path.basename() = os.path.split()[1]
For the purpose of better readability split() is replaced
by appropriate function if only one part of returned tuple
is used.

has_argument and other similar methods of compiler objects only support
checking compiler flags. If they are used to check linker flags, the
results are very likely to be wrong and developers should be warned.
See issue #2762
Adds full_version to class Compiler. If set full_version will be printed
additionally.
Added support for CCompiler and CPPCompiler
Added support for gcc/g++, clang/clang++, icc.
CCache requires this flag when building with precompiled headers.
Without it, the preprocessor fails and CCache fallbacks to running the
real compiler.
Users still need to set 'sloppiness' to 'pch_defines,time_macros' in
their ccache.conf file for CCache to cache builds that use precompiled
headers. See the CCache manual for more info:
https://ccache.samba.org/manual.html#_precompiled_headers
