Because we were iterating over all generated sources of a target in one
go, we weren't adding the correct header_deps for generated source
compiles. We need to aggregate the header_deps first before generating
source compile targets for generated source files.
For commands that always output to stdout and don't have a "-o" or
"--output" or some other similar option, this 'capture' setting allows
the build to capture the result and place it in the output file.
Target-specific compiler options should be split into pre-processor
defines, include directories, and additional options, then
escaped/quoted and added to the appropriate portions of the project
file.
The "115 spaces backslash" test now checks that backslashes and spaces
now work properly in all three places.
Trivially correct typo fix. Didn't actually break anything because the
fallback is libdir anyway, and we always install static libraries to
libdir.

It should always be passed build_to_src otherwise the path for generated
files will always be wrong. Passing the vcxproj path as the build_to_src
only works for files in the source tree.
These need to be set via XML tags and not passed directly as
AdditionalOptions. Otherwise the project will end up with inconsistent
compiler options and the build will fail.
Since Meson internals assume that these will be set via a command-line
invocation, we need to detect the presence of various flags in
buildtype_args and buildtype_link_args and set the correct options in
the vcxproj file.
Note that this means different configurations (debug/release/etc) cannot
be enumerated in the vcxproj/sln files and chosen by the user at build
time because arbitrary build characteristics can depend on that. The
only way to support that is by doing a full parse and conversion of
Meson build files (for all build options) to vcxproj files.
The link arguments for each dependency are split into these three and
added to the vcxproj file. Without this targets cannot find the external
dependencies.
This allows us to output either the relative or absolute path as
requested. Fixes usage of configure_file inside CustomTarget commands
with the VS backends.
