## New `not_found_message` for dependency
You can now specify a `not_found_message` that will be printed if the
specified dependency was not found. The point is to convert constructs
that look like this:
```meson
d = dependency('something', required: false)
if not d.found()
message('Will not be able to do something.')
endif
```
Into this:
```meson
d = dependency('something',
required: false,
not_found_message: 'Will not be able to do something.')
```
Or constructs like this:
```meson
d = dependency('something', required: false)
if not d.found()
error('Install something by doing XYZ.')
endif
```
into this:
```meson
d = dependency('something',
not_found_message: 'Install something by doing XYZ.')
```
Which works, because the default value of `required` is `true`.
