This adds a new method, partial_dependency to all dependencies. These
sub dependencies are copies of the original dependency, but with one or
more of the attributes replaced with an empty list. This allows creating
a sub dependency that has only cflags or drops link_arguments, for
example.
This halves the configure time in gst-build, the aggregate of all
GStreamer repositories.
We can't do this to Popen_safe because we can't be sure that other
programs have no side-effects and will always return the same output
for the same arguments and environment.
Strawberry Perl on Windows ships with a Perl implementation of
pkg-config embedded inside a BAT file. True horror of horrors, but
people do use it, so search for pkg-config with ExternalProgram which
has the right Windows-specific cases to deal with that.

ExtraFrameworkDependency doesn't support any method: other than auto, so
handing down the method: used from QtBaseDependency leads to (sic):
meson.build:13:2: ERROR: Unsupported detection method: qmake, allowed methods are auto and auto
At the moment, QtBaseDependency._framework_detect sets is_found if at least
one module is found. This gives the incorrect result in the case where both
found and not-found modules are given.
Fix it so it only sets is_found if all the modules given are found.
Fix dependency('qt4|5', method: 'qmake') detection when shared library
extension isn't .so
Note that OSX already has a special case to look for .framework
Unusually, the cygwin package for openmpi installs headers into
/usr/include, rather than /usr/include/openmpi
Prevent pkg-config from suppressing that -I flag, so a gfortran INCLUDE can
find those files
Also don't resolve -lfoo args only when libpaths are defined.
cc.find_library() also searches in the toolchain directories, and the
static library might be there.
A hard error makes this feature useless in most cases since a static
library usually won't be found for every library, particularly system
libraries like -lm. Instead, warn so the user can provide the static
library if they wish.
This feature will be expanded and made more extensible and more usable
in the future.

This allows for much easier cross compiler configuration for tools like
LLVM. This patch does honor the 'native' keyword, and falls back to
searching PATH if the binary name is not specified.
I'd be fine with either removing the fallback behavior, or marking it as
deprecated and removing it later.
Fixes#2921
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).
