I got this warning on a build:
> WARNING: Passed invalid keyword argument preset. This will become a hard error in the future.
I had to grep in meson code to understand that "preset" was the name of
the invalid argument. This is not obvious at all depending on the
argument name (here it looked like it was about argument presets).
Let's make it clearer by putting it in quotes.
This avoids printing several 'Found:' messages during configure, and
also avoids doing several searches for the same binary. This is already
done by the interpreter for `find_program` calls from build files.
Also move it to the module-wide __init__.py file so it can be used by
other modules as-needed.
Also use it for g-ir-scanner where it was missed in one place, also fix
exception name in the same place.
It is often useful to be able to check if a specific object is of a type
defined in a module. To that end, define all such targets in
modules/__init__.py so that everyone can refer to them without poking
into module-specific code.
