We consistently use the "dependencies" kwarg to refer to C-like
CFLAGS/LDFLAGS interfaces. And for hotdoc, we actually accept libraries
for this as well, as we may want to document their (generated?) sources,
so we want their CFLAGS too.
But we also accepted custom targets and just added a build order
dependency on these, which was odd and typically we call that "depends".
Let's deprecate this in favor of the depends kwarg.
Internally we pass this as extra_depends to the CustomTarget
initializer, so it makes sense to call it that rather than confusing the
topic by referring to "dependencies", a term that indicates
CFLAGS/LDFLAGS interfaces.
We would like to use the default value (the one python urged us not to
use), but without getting a warning for it. Luckily, we have the correct
value already, so we can pass it manually to avoid the complaint.
python 3.11 adds a warning that in 3.15, UTF-8 mode will be default.
This is fantastic news, we'd love that. Less fantastic: this warning is
silly, we *want* these checks to be affected. Plus, the recommended
alternative API would (in addition to warning people when UTF-8 mode
removed the problem) also require using a minimum python version of 3.11
(in which the warning was added) or add verbose if/else soup.
The simple, and obvious, approach is to add a warnings filter to hide
it.
It is, after all, "safe". ;) That's why it exists. There's no reason to
think listing all pkg-config entries cannot print unicode descriptions,
it's absolutely possible, and we should handle it properly if we
encounter it.
It was only trying to guess install tag, and log missing tags, for files
installed by install_data(). Do it also for all other files, especially
custom_taget() that commonly installs generated headers.
This reverts commit c94c492089.
This broke propagated deps as well as PCH in MSVC, and has not been
fixed in time for the final release of 0.64.0, so it needs to be
reverted and then brought back later.

Regression test: libccpp has both C and C++ sources. The executable only
has C sources. It should still link using the C++ compiler. When using
both_libraries the static has no sources and thus no compilers,
resulting in the executable linking using the C compiler.

This was introduced in commit 3a6e2aeed9
as part of 0.50.0, but did not contain a FeatureNew. As a result, people
would use it without realizing that they broke support for versions of
Meson included in their minimum requirements.
GeneratedLists as sources to `gnome.gdbus_codegen` worked until
version 0.60 of Meson, but broke in 0.61 because of the conversion to
typed_pos_args and typed_kwargs. Reinstate this by adding them to the
decorators and annotations.
Note that gdbus_codegen desugars to two custom_targets and therefore the
generator is invoked twice. This is not optimal, but it should not be
an issue and can be changed later.

While generators also used to work, they are a bit tricky because
gdbus_codegen desugars to two custom_targets and therefore the generator
is invoked twice. This should not be a problem, but be explicit and
leave that to a separate commit to highlight the problem.

ccache was used in all command lines but disabled using CCACHE_DISABLE
in Compiler.compile() method. Wrapping invokations still has a cost,
especially on Windows.
With sccache things are even worse because CCACHE_DISABLE was not
respected at all, making configure *extremely* slow on Windows when
sccache is installed.
Move `detect_native_windows_arch()` to `mesonlib/universal.py` and
rename it to `windows_detect_native_arch()`
Use `IsWow64Process2()` to detect native architecture if available
Use native `vcvarsarm64.bat` to initialize vsenv if available
This is based on searching for `@FeatureNew*` decorators.
There is also one correction to a version in a decorators;
`build_by_default` was added in #1303, which is 0.38.0, not 0.40.0.
We accept a list of known kwargs of required types, but also arbitrary
kwargs understood by the hotdoc program (sometimes via extensions). Now
that we can partially type-check kwargs, do so here.
Some functions cannot be fully type checked, because our API allows
fully arbitrary kwargs and treats them as data to pass through to the
underlying feature. For example, hotdoc command line arguments.
This change allows us to type check some kwargs with known types and
possibly required status, and make their values consistent(ly defaultable),
while preserving the optional nature of the additional kwargs.
