Before python 3.5.4 typing didn't have the NoReturn type, use a string
to forward declare it.
aside: I can't wait to be able to use python 3.7's
__future__.annotations and not have to deal wit hthis anymore.
Fixes#5822
When g-ir-scanner is overriden, we can't call it at configure time
but we know what options are avalaible (as it started using meson
after checked options where added) so do not try to call it to retrieve
the version as it will fail.

It is often desirable to use ~ for home directory in -D compilation args.
Why the transform to pathlib.Path and back to str? Because this is one of many
places where the list(map(str,..))) will be eliminated upon Python 3.6 being
minimum Meson Python requirement.
This is a mixin class for DynamicLinkers that aims to provide only the
most basic posix-like linker arguments, in other words bits that gnu ld,
apple's ld, solaris's ld, and other completely disjoint linkers that are
used on Unix-like OSes share.
Ifort can generate dependency information (.d files), it just does it
differently than GNU compilers do. This also fixes a bug caused by
adding the dependency generation commands to the GNULike class later in
this series.
These two functions are different only in the classes that they use, a
couple of simple in-line ternaries takes care of that and reduces code
duplication.
Clang doesn't really like having no-undefined plus the address sanitizer, but
gcc doesn't mind. This all happens to work with clang + gnu ld, but with clang
+ apple ld this turns into a dumpster fire. Just add b_lundef=false to make
everyone happy.
