If first checking for a dependency as not-required, and then later
checking for the same dependency again as required, we would not
error out saying the dependency is missing, but just silently
re-use the cached dependency object from the first check and then
likely fail at build time if the dependency is not actually there.
With test case.
Fixes#964.
At the same time, this also adds a bunch of tests that document and keep
track of how we expect quoting to pass through via Ninja to the
compiler.
We need at least Ninja 1.6.0 for this.

On MSVC, shared libraries only export symbols that have been explicitly exported
either as part of the symbol prototype or via a module definitions file.
On compilers other than MSVC, all symbols are exported in the shared library by
default and the format for the list of symbols to export is different, so this
is only used with the VisualStudio compiler.
The module defs file path can either be relative to the current source directory
or an absolute path using meson.source_root() + '/some/path'
