Currently mesonlib does some import tricks to figure out whether it
needs to use windows or posix specific functions. This is a little
hacky, but works fine. However, the way the typing stubs are implemented
for the msvcrt and fnctl modules will cause mypy to fail on the other
platform, since the functions are not implemented.
To aleviate this (and for slightly cleaner design), I've split mesonlib
into a pacakge with three modules. A universal module contains all of
the platform agnositc code, a win32 module contains window specific
code, a posix module contains the posix specific code, and a platform
module contains no-op implementations. Then the package's __init__ file
imports all of the universal functions and all of the functions from the
approriate platform module, or the no-op versions as fallbacks. This
makes mypy happy, and avoids `if`ing all over the code to switch between
the platform specific code.
[why]
If we build and test a library we need to make sure that we find the
currently build library object first, before an older system installed
one.
This can be broken if the library in question is installed in a custom
path, and another library we depend on also is installed there.
[how]
Just move the rpath to the current build artifacts to the front.

In Fortran it is common to use capital F in the suffix (eg. '.F90') if
the source file makes use of preprocessor statements. Such files should
probably be treated like all other fortran files by meson.
Case insensitivity for suffixes was already implemented several places
in meson before this. So most likely, the few places changed here were
oversights anyway.
There are still caveats here. Rust/cargo handles generated sources by
writing out all targets of a single repo into a single output directory,
setting a path to that via a build-time environment variable, and then
include those files via a set of functions and macros. Meson's build
layout is naturally different, and ninja makes working with environment
variables at compile time difficult.

we have two functions to do the exact same thing, and they're basically
implemented the same way. Instead, let's just use the BuildTarget one,
as it's more generally available.
This patches takes the options work to it's logical conclusion: A single
flat dictionary of OptionKey: UserOptions. This allows us to simplify a
large number of cases, as we don't need to check if an option is in this
dict or that one (or any of 5 or 6, actually).
I would have prefered to do these seperatately, but they are combined in
some cases, so it was much easier to convert them together.
this eliminates the builtins_per_machine dict, as it's duplicated with
the OptionKey's machine parameter.
These do not go into the command line, and therefore do not matter
for the purpose of avoiding unnecessary rebuilds after meson is
rerun. However, they complicate the task of finding differences
between build lines across meson reruns.
So take the easy way out and sort everything after | and ||.
With this change, there is absolutely no change in QEMU's 40000-line
build.ninja file after meson is rerun.
There are two bugs here, first is that we open coded the output args,
instead of using the compiler method. The second is that rust args are
not passed down to the backend invocation.
Using the std option, so now `rust_std=..` will work. I've chosen to use
"std" even though rust calls these "editions", as meson refers to
language versions as "standards", which makes meson feel more uniform,
and be less surprising.

I've always found ninja reporting 'a meson_exe.py custom command'
unclear and confusing. Instead say we are invoking a custom command,
wrapped by meson, and why.
Don't stop generating STATIC_LINKER rules at the first MachineChoice
which isn't available (i.e. generate a STATIC_LINKER rule, even if
STATIC_LINKER_FOR_BUILD isn't needed)
Also warn about internal errors which lead to non-existent rule
references, rather than exploding with a KeyError.
This allows the NINJA environment variable to support all the Windows special
cases, especially allowing an absolute path without extension.

extra_paths only matter for the host machine if using an exe_wrapper.
However, because CustomTarget.for_machine is always MachineChoice.HOST,
they were computed unnecessarily in as_meson_exe_cmdline.
Defer computation of extra_paths until after we have found out if the
custom target executable is really for the host or the build machine,
so that we can use exe_for_machine; for_machine then becomes unused
and can be removed.

- Exceptions raised during subproject setup were ignored.
- Allow c_stdlib in native file, was already half supported.
- Eliminate usage of subproject variable name by overriding
'<lang>_stdlib' dependency name.
