Cairo is a hard dependency on the whole at least because tests seem to
require it, but this will help if someone adds an option to disable
building tests to get rid of Cairo.

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.

Now that we use AC_SYS_LARGEFILE, we need to pull in config.h at least
whereever we use mmap(). Fixes at least the test-suite and simple-shm
on 32 bit systems.
Instead of having a custom fork of the vpxenc tool in weston, we can
just dump raw YUV data in the YUV4MPEG2 format and feed that into the
upstream vpxenc. This also works with theora_encoder and probably many
other encoders.
