Since we pass a method: 'foo' to every one of these
config-tool/pkg-config dependencies, we do not ever need to check which
type_name it has; change these to asserts instead.
In the process, we discover a bug! We kept checking for type
'configtool' instead of 'config-tool', so these tests all
short-circuited and checked nothing. Once moved to an assert, the
asserts failed.
Add a new lookup for a known system dependency and make it assert that
too.
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
We now pass the current subproject to every FeatureNew and
FeatureDeprecated call. This requires a bunch of rework to:
1. Ensure that we have access to the subproject in the list of
arguments when used as a decorator (see _get_callee_args).
2. Pass the subproject to .use() when it's called manually.
3. We also can't do feature checks for new features in
meson_options.txt because that's parsed before we know the
meson_version from project()
