The linkers currently do not support ninja compatible output of
dependencies used while linking. Try to guess which files will be used
while linking in python code and generate conservative dependencies to
ensure changes in linked libraries are detected.
This generates dependencies on the best match for static and shared
linking, but this should not be a problem, except for spurious
rebuilding when only one of them changes, which should not be a problem.
Also makes sure to ignore any libraries generated inside the build, to
keep the optimisation working where changes in a shared library only
cause relink if the symbols have changed as well.
This caching is only for a single run, so it doesn't help reconfigure.
However, it is useful for subproject setups where different subprojects
will run the same compiler checks.
The cache is also per compiler instance and is not used for functions
that want to read or run the outputted object file or binary.
For gst-build, this halves the number of compiler checks that are run
and reduces configuration time by 20%.
Fixes "warning: --output and -o have no effect when -C or --ccode is set"
get_always_args() adds -C which is already disabling the direct compilation
ability of valac for which -o is used.
Copy the algorithm used by autoconf.
It computes the upper and lower limits by starting at [-1,1] and
multiply by 2 at each iteration. This is even faster for small numbers
(the common case), for example it finds value 0 in just 2 compilations
where old algorithm would check for 1024, 512, ..., 0.
Recent versions of systemd (starting with v238) started to check for the
existence of the statx structure using the cc.sizeof() operation. The cc
compiler implementation fails to detect this structure because it's size
limit is 128, meaning it will fail for any type larger than 128 bytes in
the following way during cross-compilation checks:
meson.build:10:2: ERROR: Cross-compile check overflowed
Increase the size limit for data types to 1024 bytes, which should give
plenty of room for even large data structures. This is obviously not
guaranteed to be an upper bound, but given the binary search algorithm
implemented in the cross-compile check, raising the limit too high may
significantly increase the time required for this check on smaller data
types.

Change the code to store D properties as plain data. Only convert them
to compiler flags in the backend. This also means we can fully parse D
arguments without needing to know the compiler being used.
Older versions of GDC had broken support for the -MQ flag (resulting in
a compiler error). New versions of GDC have this issue fixed (some older
versions received a backport). Starting with GCC 7.1 we can assume
dependency generation to always work reliably.
A hard error makes this feature useless in most cases since a static
library usually won't be found for every library, particularly system
libraries like -lm. Instead, warn so the user can provide the static
library if they wish.
This feature will be expanded and made more extensible and more usable
in the future.

After PR #2662, running test case common/125 shared module/ on Cygwin gets
me:
$ ninja -C _build
ninja: Entering directory `_build'
[7/7] Linking target prog.exe.
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/6.4.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: warning: --export-dynamic is not supported for PE+ targets, did you mean --export-all-symbols?
Also, fix doc for correct version of first apperance.
Future work: Notwithstanding the hint that ld gives, these options are not
equivalent, and it's not clear we should be using it here:
--export-all-symbols is the default behaviour, and if the exports are
restricted by explicit annotations or a .def file, this option might be
overriding that...
According to Python documentation[1] dirname and basename
are defined as follows:
os.path.dirname() = os.path.split()[0]
os.path.basename() = os.path.split()[1]
For the purpose of better readability split() is replaced
by appropriate function if only one part of returned tuple
is used.

has_argument and other similar methods of compiler objects only support
checking compiler flags. If they are used to check linker flags, the
results are very likely to be wrong and developers should be warned.
Otherwise we will try to use the objc compiler when linking projects
with both objc and C++.
Technically we should use the objc++ linker when doing this, but on
most (all?) systems the objc++ linker is `c++`, which is the same
as the C++ linker.
Closes https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/2468

additionally.
