Unify present or absent test.json file cases in gather_tests
Make expected stdout mandatory in test.json for some test categories
Use a trivial TestCategory class rather than a tuple, to make it easier
to default category attributes
This is especially useful for Conan, where only the boost.pc
file is provided and manually setting BOOST_ROOT is not a
good solution since it is in a private cache directory.
See #5438
Simmilar to gcc, the list of pre-processor defines can be fetched with
`-dM -E` option. The way cpu_family is determined on linux relies on
this list.
Fixes incorrect value of cpu_family on linux, when crosscompiling:
```
CC="clang -m32" meson ./build
```

D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.

Ideally we wouldn't need to have the default dict here and could just
rely on it being set as soon as project is called. There is a corner
case exercised by test case common/35 run program, which is that if a
FeatureNew or FeatureDeprecated is called to generate the meson version
it will be unset, to work around this I've changed the type from a dict
to a default dict with '' as the default value.
A better fix would probably be to store all of the
FeatureNew/FeatureDeprecated checks until the end, then evaluate them,
but for now this results in no loss of functionality, only more
functionality, even if it isn't prefect.
