This replaces calls to .rstrip('git'), .rstrip('svn') with a regex that
takes the leading numbers and dots, and throws away the rest. This also
moves the code up to the ConfigToolDepdency level, since these config
tools are of various quality and some of them are good, and some are
not. This shouldn't affect well behaved tools.
This should future proof LLVM against future suffixes (like someone
doing something strange like using Mercurial as a VCS).
I'm not sure this is a good idea, but at the moment it seems a bit too easy
to write something like dep.get_pkgconfig_variable('inculdedir:') (sic) and
not notice it's not doing anything useful.
Add some missing statements to list of keywords
Derive from prog-mode, so any prog-mode hooks are run
Automatically use this mode for meson.build files

The output may be a binary data stream, not subject to any locale
encoding. This avoids any encoding errors that might arise as a result.
Also fixes github issue #2868.
This is important so people can not trick Meson to select a
subproject_dir that is not in the project's source directory.
It also ensures a string is used for the path.
They now are published by the D Language Foundation, and not Digital
Mars. Therefore, their signature has changed slightly.
(We can not check for 'DMD', because that string appears in every
compiler version output to denote the frontend version used by the
compiler).
The previous change disallowed any subdirectories for subproject dirs,
and therefore broke a couple of projects making use of that.
This change still prevents people from setting subproject dirs that are
not in the project's source tree, while allowing to specify any path
within the project's directory again.
Resolves: #2719
Because FreeBSD's llvm-config adds -l/usr/lib/libexecinfo.so when asked
for system-libs, which is bogus. We'll remove the leading -l from any
argument that also ends with .so.
Instead of looking for an objc compiler. Fixes objc++ tests on
DragonFlyBSD (which has an objc but not an objc++ compiler)
Really though, the objc and objc++ tests need to be untangled so that
the objc tests can run even if an objc++ compiler is unavilable.
