Currently meson only considers what compiler/linker were used by a
Target's immediate sources or objects, not the sources of libraries it's
linked with by the link_with and link_while keywords. This means that if
given 3 libraries: libA which is C++, libB which is C, and libC which is
also C, and libC links with libB which links with libA then linking libC
will be attempted with the C linker, and will fail.
This patch corrects that by adding the compilers used by sub libraries
to the collection of compilers considered by meson when picking a
linker.
This adds a new process_compilers_late method to the BuildTarget class,
which is evaluated after process_kwargs is called. This is needed
because some D options need to be evaluated after compilers are
selected, while for C-like languages we need to check the link* targets
for language requirements, and link* targets are passed by kwargs.
This implementation is recursive, since each Target adds it's parent's
dependencies.
Add new 'docbook' argument which generates Docbook documentation for
each D-Bus interface. The docbook argument will be used as prefix
in `PREFIX`-NAME.xml pattern, and NAME will be replaced by the D-Bus
interfaces.
Of course D compilers have different flags to set some important
D-specific settings. This adds a simple method to change these flags in
a compiler-agnostic way in Meson.
This replaces the previous `unittest_args` method with a more generic
variant.
Otherwise we might end up with wrapper holders in the Build object and
pickling will then fail, defeating the purpose of the holder objects.

* add support for cups dependencies
libcups has its own cups-config tool rather than using pkg-config.
This adds support for cups-config, based on pcap-config and
sdl2-config implementations.
This change also includes the unit test case and documentation for
cups dependency object implementation, and libcups2 dep to CI image.
Actually, GDC supports shared libraries since version 6.2, but on Debian
there are still issues with that version due to the standard library not
being compiled with PIC.
Therefore, we make a very conservative assumption here and only enable
the tests for GDC >= 7.0
Listing all languages inside meson.build for the Yelp-based manual
localisation is error-prone, and it also requires parsing and modifying
Meson files from external tools.
Just like we do for i18n, we can use an ancillary `LINGUAS` file in the
help source sub-directory to list all the help languages.
In version 3.6.0, clang added -Wignored-optimization-argument. Without
setting this flag to -Werror, "ignored optimization arguments" such as
(for example) -fpeel-loops, are accepted but warned about, leading to
noisy builds if meson thinks the flag is supported.

99% of all mkenums uses in C libraries use the same basic template,
so add a mkenums_simple() function that takes care of everything for
us based on that template.
Features:
- optional function declaration decorator such as GLIB_AVAILABLE
- optional extra header prefix (e.g. for include needed for decorator)
- optional extra body prefix (e.g. for additional includes)
- optional function name prefix (e.g. to add leading underscores)
Fixes issue #1384
gnome.compile_resources() was not parsing custom target sources
properly. It was using the custom target name as the output of the
custom target instead of looking at the list of outputs.
Also modify the GNOME framework test to expose this.
