I left a hack patch in a pull request for LLVM, and the result is that
LLVM doesn't link with static builds. The real problem was that some
distros have pkg-config for tinfo, other's don't, so the correct
solution is to use cpp_compiler.find_library if dependency() fails.
Unfortunately, `time.time` and file timestamps are not guaranteed to be
in sync and due to various kernel caches may be different enough to
cause rebuilds to fail [1]. This was masked by older ninja versions that
could not read sub-second timestamps.

Auto detection was based on parsing gcc's output so we have to
ensure that it is always 'C'.

Currently, run_target does not get namespaced for each subproject,
unlike executable and others. This means that two subprojects sharing
the same run_target name cause meson to crash.
Fix this by moving the subproject namespacing logic from the BuildTarget
class to the Target class.
With executable(), if the link_with argument has a string as one of it's
elements, meson ends up throwing an AttributeError exception:
...
File "/home/lyudess/Projects/meson/mesonbuild/build.py", line 868, in link
if not t.is_linkable_target():
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'is_linkable_target'
Which is not very helpful in figuring out where exactly the project is
trying to link against a string instead of an actual link target. So,
fix this by verifying in BuildTarget.link() that each given target is
actually a Target object and not something else.
Additionally, add a simple test case for this in failing tests. At the
moment, this test case just passes unconditionally due to meson throwing
the AttributeError exception and failing as expected. However, this test
case will be useful eventually if we ever end up making failing tests
more strict about failing gracefully (per advice of QuLogic).
This commit adds support for an additional `moc_extra_arguments` keyword.
It becomes especially handy, when `moc`-ed sources conditionally provide
`slots`, depending on compile time macros (i.e. defines).
