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
This has the adventage that "meson --help" shows a list of all commands,
making them discoverable. This also reduce the manual parsing of
arguments to the strict minimum needed for backward compatibility.
This implements support for visual studio solution directories.
Projects will by default be put into directories that map their sub-directory
name in the source folder. No directories are created if `--layout=flat` is used.
Fixes: #2524
