During evaluation of codeblocks, we start off with an iteration of
nodes, and then while evaluating them we may update the global
self.current_node context. When catching and formatting errors, we
didn't take into account that the node might be updated from the
original top-level iteration.
Switch to formatting errors using self.current_node instead, to ensure
we can point at the likely most-accurate actual cause of an error.
Also update the current node in a few more places, so that function
calls always see the function call as the current node, even if the most
recently parsed node was an argument to the function call.

"targetting" is verb-derived adjective, which sort-of-works here, but
makes the whole sentence awkward, because there's no verb. Let's just
use present simple.
"tried to use" implies that the attempt was not successful, i.e. that meson
ignored the feature. But that is not what happens, apart from the warning the
feature works just fine. The new message is also shorter ;)
Automatically generate additional variables and write them into the
generated pkg-config file.
This means projects no longer need to manually define the ones they
use, which is annoying for dataonly usages (it used to forbid setting
the base library-relevant "reserved" ones, and now allows it only for
dataonly. But it's bloat to manualy list them anyway).
It also fixes a regression in commit
248e6cf473 which caused libdir to not be
set, and to be unsettable, if the pkg-config file has no libraries but
uses the ${libdir} expansion in a custom variable. This could be
considered likely a case for dataonly, but it's not guaranteed.
If a pkg-config dependency has multiple libraries in it, which is the
most common case when it has a Requires: directive, or when it has
multiple -l args in Libs: (rare), then we don't add -Wl,-rpath
directives to it when linking.
The existing test wasn't catching it because it was linking to
a pkgconfig file with a single library in it. Update the test to
demonstrate this.
This function was originally added for shared libraries in the source
directory, which explains the name:
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/2397
However, since now it is also used for linking to *all* non-system
shared libraries that we link to with absolute paths:
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/3092
But that PR is incomplete / wrong, because only adding RPATHs for
dependencies that specify a single library, which is simply
inconsistent. Things will work for some dependencies and not work for
others, with no logical reason for it.
We should add RPATHs for *all* libraries. There are no special length
limits for RPATHs that I can find.
For ELF, DT_RPATH or DT_RUNPATH are used, which are just stored in
a string table (DT_STRTAB). The maximum length is only a problem when
editing pre-existing tags.
For Mach-O, each RPATH is stored in a separate LC_RPATH entry so there
are no length issues there either.

When generating pkgconfig file for a library that links to an
uninstalled static library built by custom_target() Meson was crashing
when trying to access some attributes that does not exist on that class.
Also fix is_internal() implementation, it only really make sense on a
CustomTargetIndex or if CustomTarget has only a single output.
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.
