configure a detection method, for those types of dependencies that have
more than one means of detection.
The default detection methods are unchanged if 'method' is not
specified, and all dependencies support the method 'auto', which is the
same as not specifying a method.
The dependencies which do support multiple detection methods
additionally support other values, depending on the dependency.
I don't really know how to explain this briefly...
If you don't decorate this with dllimport, then a Cygwin runtime relocation
is used (a so called 'pseudo-reloc'). As the relocation offset is only 32
bits, this can fail on x86_64 if the DLL happens to be loaded more than 2GB
away from the reference.
If you decorate with dllimport, then access is indirected via a pointer,
imp_square_unsigned, which is fixed up by the loader.
Including newlib's <stdlib.h> brings in a '#define __has_include 0', so
using -U__has_include on the command line isn't going to remove it (so the
fallback doesn't happen and the test fails)
Instead use a '#undef __has_include' at the end of the prefix to excerise
this.
(newlib's <stdlib.h> is derived from FreeBSD, so the same problem will
probably be seen there)

This would make it harder to parse an option to mesonconf such
as -Dfoo:bar:baz:fun=value since it could mean either of these:
* For subproject 'foo:bar:baz', set the option 'fun' to 'value'
* For subproject 'foo:bar', an invalid option 'baz:fun' was set
To differentiate between these two we'd need to create the list of
subprojects first and then parse their options later, which
complicates the parsing quite a bit.
When install_dir was set for a shared_library, the import library
would not be installed at all, which is unintended.
Instead, install it into the custom directory if it is set, otherwise
install it in the default import library installation directory.
Includes a test for this.
You can now pass a list of strings to the install_dir: kwarg to
build_target and custom_target.
Custom Targets:
===============
Allows you to specify the installation directory for each
corresponding output. For example:
custom_target('different-install-dirs',
output : ['first.file', 'second.file'],
...
install : true,
install_dir : ['somedir', 'otherdir])
This would install first.file to somedir and second.file to otherdir.
If only one install_dir is provided, all outputs are installed there
(same behaviour as before).
To only install some outputs, pass `false` for the outputs that you
don't want installed. For example:
custom_target('only-install-second',
output : ['first.file', 'second.file'],
...
install : true,
install_dir : [false, 'otherdir])
This would install second.file to otherdir and not install first.file.
Build Targets:
==============
With build_target() (which includes executable(), library(), etc),
usually there is only one primary output. However some types of
targets have multiple outputs.
For example, while generating Vala libraries, valac also generates
a header and a .vapi file both of which often need to be installed.
This allows you to specify installation directories for those too.
# This will only install the library (same as before)
shared_library('somevalalib', 'somesource.vala',
...
install : true)
# This will install the library, the header, and the vapi into the
# respective directories
shared_library('somevalalib', 'somesource.vala',
...
install : true,
install_dir : ['libdir', 'incdir', 'vapidir'])
# This will install the library into the default libdir and
# everything else into the specified directories
shared_library('somevalalib', 'somesource.vala',
...
install : true,
install_dir : [true, 'incdir', 'vapidir'])
# This will NOT install the library, and will install everything
# else into the specified directories
shared_library('somevalalib', 'somesource.vala',
...
install : true,
install_dir : [false, 'incdir', 'vapidir'])
true/false can also be used for secondary outputs in the same way.
Valac can also generate a GIR file for libraries when the `vala_gir:`
keyword argument is passed to library(). In that case, `install_dir:`
must be given a list with four elements, one for each output.
Includes tests for all these.

The configure_file command raised an exception when an input was specified as a
File, because os.path.join does not take File objects directly. This patch
converts a File object to a string and adjusts the subsequent os.path.join
calls.
In this case, the arguments to MinGW windres will contain spaces and
the test will definitely fail, so just skip it.
This effectively means that manually running the test will be fine, but
running it via run_project_tests.py will always fail (skip).
Points to the `mesonintrospect.py` script corresponding to the
currently-running version of Meson.
Includes a test for all three methods of running scripts/commands.

Now as long as you have a C compiler available in the project, it will
be used to compile assembly even if the target contains a C++ compiler
and even if the target contains only assembly and C++ sources.
Earlier, the order in which sources appeared in a target would decide
which compiler would be used.
However, if the project only provides a C++ compiler, that will be
used for compiling assembly sources.
If this breaks your use-case, please tell us.
Includes a test that ensures that all of the above is adhered to.
The paths are already relative to the target dir.
Includes a test for this which generates and builds in subdirs. If all
the generation and usage is done in the build root, this bug will
obviously not be triggered.
An empty / no-op dependency can be expressed as []. This works with
the dependencies kwarg in executable targets such as shared_library,
but now with declare_dependency, where it would error out with
"error: Dependencies must be external deps" because the deps are
not flattened in this case. This patch fixes that.
Fixes#1500
Besides fixing output capture, it also fixes a strange bug in MSBuild
where if the command list is too long, it will remove random
characters from the command list before passing it to the command.
