This replaces all of the Apache blurbs at the start of each file with an
`# SPDX-License-Identifier: Apache-2.0` string. It also fixes existing
uses to be consistent in capitalization, and to be placed above any
copyright notices.
This removes nearly 3000 lines of boilerplate from the project (only
python files), which no developer cares to look at.
SPDX is in common use, particularly in the Linux kernel, and is the
recommended format for Meson's own `project(license: )` field
This properly sets the project version in projects meson generates from
cmake projects. This allows dependency fallbacks to properly check the
version constraints in dependency calls when falling back to a cmake
subproject. Before this would fail, because the project version was
undefined.

This has no actual effect on the codebase as type checkers (still)
support both and negligible effect on runtime performance since
__future__ annotations ameliorates that. Technically, the bytecode would
be bigger for non function-local annotations, of which we have many
either way.
So if it doesn't really matter, why do a large-scale refactor? Simple:
because people keep wanting to, but it's getting nickle-and-dimed. If
we're going to do this we might as well do it consistently in one shot,
using tooling that guarantees repeatability and correctness.
Repeat with:
```
com2ann mesonbuild/
```
We have a lot of these. Some of them are harmless, if unidiomatic, such
as `if (condition)`, others are potentially dangerous `assert(...)`, as
`assert(condtion)` works as expected, but `assert(condition, message)`
will result in an assertion that never triggers, as what you're actually
asserting is `bool(tuple[2])`, which will always be true.
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.
Fixes#7082
The file API will automatically be used when CMake >= 3.14
is detected. This new API is meant as a replacement for the
now deprecated CMake server API.
The new API (mostly) provides the same information in a
different format. Thus only a slight bit of refactoring was
necessary to implement this new backend
