This is so that, for instance, people using weston as their main Wayland
compositor can invert the sense of two finger scrolling or change
pointer acceleration using weston.ini, rather than having to edit C
code.
All of the options that libinput itself exposes through its API are now
exposed in weston.ini. The new options are called `tap-and-drag`,
`tap-and-drag-lock`, `disable-while-typing`, `middle-emulation`,
`left-handed`, `rotation`, `accel-profile`, `accel-speed`,
`scroll-method`, `natural-scroll`, and `scroll-button`. I have
successfully tested everything except for `rotation`, out of a lack of
hardware support.
weston now depends directly on libevdev for turning button name strings into
kernel input codes. This was needed for the `scroll-button` config
option. (weston already depends indirectly on libevdev through
libinput, so I figured people would be OK with this.) As a practical
matter for debian-style packagers, weston now has a build dependency on
libevdev-dev.
Right now, the code applies the same options to all attached devices
that a given option is relevant for. There are plans for multiple
[libinput] sections, each with different device filters, for users who
need more control here.

Helps people avoid wayland-egl if they don't want it.
Makes the check for wayland-egl explicit on the site instead of relying
on gl-renderer checking for it.

Check the egl, glesv2 and gbm dependencies locally instead of relying on
the dep_* variables from the top level meson.build or
libweston/meson.build (dep_gbm).
This should make these dependencies now explicitly checked when the app
is built, rather than relying on other components doing the checks. If
the drm-backend was disabled, this would have probably hit an error
using the undeclared variable dep_gbm.

Remove IN_WESTON in favour of the already defined UNIT_TEST which is
used to modify a compilation unit to expose more functions for unit
tests to prod at.
Originally IN_WESTON meant that compilation unit was being compiled for
use in the Weston compositor, but it probably never really did anything
more than change what WL_EXPORT means in matrix.c.
This patch not only simplifies the logic, but it fixes the Meson build
of test-matrix: IN_WESTON was defined there even when matrix.c was being
built outside of Weston, which caused it to depend on libwayland
headers, which were not included in the Meson build of test-matrix.
Test-matrix has no reason to depend in libwayland in any way, so this
patch fixes that.

Meson is a build system, currently implemented in Python, with multiple
output backends, including Ninja and Make. The build file syntax is
clean and easy to read unlike autotools. In practise, configuring and
building with Meson and Ninja has been observed to be much faster than
with autotools. Also cross-building support is excellent.
More information at http://mesonbuild.com
Since moving to Meson requires some changes from users in any case, we
took this opportunity to revamp build options. Most of the build options
still exist, some have changed names or more, and a few have been
dropped. The option to choose the Cairo flavour is not implemented since
for the longest time the Cairo image backend has been the only
recommended one.
This Meson build should be fully functional and it installs everything
an all-enabled autotools build does. Installed pkg-config files have
some minor differences that should be insignificant. Building of some
developer documentation that was never installed with autotools is
missing.
It is expected that the autotools build system will be removed soon
after the next Weston release.
