Just like libmutter-clutter, and libmutter, mark exported symbols with
an COGL_EXPORT macro. This removes the .map and .map.in files previously
used, containing a list of semi private symbols. This symbol was out of
date, i.e. pointed to non-existing symbols, and was also replaced with
COGL_EXPORT macros.
unit_test_* symbols are exported by the help of the unit test defining
macro. test_* symbols are no longer supported as it proved unnecessary.

It wasn't necessary (see other instances of -DG_LOG_DOMAIN) and somewhere
along the line it was getting turned into forward slashes becoming a syntax
error:
```
/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gobject.h:767: syntax error, unexpected '/' in
...
g_assertion_message (/"CoglPango/",
```

GList's used in legacy code were free'd using a g_slist_foreach + g_slist_free,
while we can just use g_slist_free_full as per GLib 2.28.
So replace code where we were using this legacy codepath.

Meson 0.50.0 made passing an absolute path to install_headers()'
subdir keyword a fatal error. This means we have to track both
relative (to includedir) paths for header subdirs and absolute
paths for generated headers now :-(

This basically reverts commit 54735dec, which tried to avoid the
GLib-defined types in favor the standard C ones. One exception to this
is the bool type, for which the commit introduces a new type CoglBool.
Let's just get rid of this type in favor of having consistency with the
GLib types. Note by the way that neither CoglBool nor gboolean (which
has a size of `int`) are completely compatible with bool (size `char`).

Soname of the libraries should be the major version number, while the version
triplet is currently used:
objdump -p libmutter-4.so.0.0.0 | grep SONAME
SONAME libmutter-4.so.0.0.0
While is expected to be only libmutter-4.so.0
Fix all shared libraries by setting valid version and soversion.

Map files were using wrong syntax (missing final `;` or invalid chars).
Also, the map files were only monitored for rebuilding, but not really used by
ld, so pass the ldflags with version-script so that private symbols are really
hidden.

I saw Meson fade from the sky
On the wind I heard a sigh
As snowflakes cover fallen Makefiles
I will say this last goodbye
Meson is now coming
So ends Autotools days
Future is now coming
And we must away
Over Python and without Bashisms
Through lands where never Meson touched
By silver streams that run down to the Sea
Under parsers, beneath old legacy
Over snow one winter’s morn
I turned at last to paths that lead home
And though where the road then takes me
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell
Many places I have been
Many sorrows I have seen
But I don’t regret
Nor will I forget
All Makefiles that took that road with me
I bid you all a very fond farewell.
If a library is provided in the positional arguments, then meson
defaults to installing the .pc file in a 'pkgconfig' subdirectory
in the library's install location. We want the files in the regular
$libdir/pkgconfig rather than $libdir/mutter-$api/pkgconfig, so
specify the location explicitly in the parameters.

Dependencies are added automatically, and we no longer get warnings
like:
clutter/clutter/meson.build:628: DEPRECATION: Library mutter-clutter-4
was passed to the "libraries" keyword argument of a previous call to
generate() method instead of first positional argument. Adding
mutter-clutter-4 to "Requires" field, but this is a deprecated behaviour
that will change in a future version of Meson. Please report the issue
if this warning cannot be avoided in your case.
This makes the build less verbose, as all .gir generation except for
clutters didn't pass --quiet to g-ir-scanner, making it output long
linking commands. Do this by adding a common introspection_args
variable.
While at it, put -U_GNU_SOURCE in there too, as it was always passed
everywhere as without it the scanner would log warnings.
This macro was introduced so as to be able to be built without GLib.
However, this feature was long ago removed, and in Mutter we depend on
it anyway, so let's get rid of it in favor of more consistency.
Meson uses the 'dependencies' field to determine and
parallelize build steps, but that isn't entirely true
with 'link_with'; this might cause a race condition
when generating header files while trying to build
them.
Fix that by only using 'dependencies' instead of 'link_with'.
This commit adds meson build support to mutter. It takes a step away
from the three separate code bases with three different autotools setups
into a single meson build system. There are still places that can be
unified better, for example by removing various "config.h" style files
from cogl and clutter, centralizing debug C flags and other configurable
macros, and similar artifacts that are there only because they were once
separate code bases.
There are some differences between the autotools setup and the new
meson. Here are a few:
The meson setup doesn't generate wrapper scripts for various cogl and
clutter test cases. What these tests did was more or less generate a
tiny script that called an executable with a test name as the argument.
To run particular tests, just run the test executable with the name of
the test as the argument.
The meson setup doesn't install test files anymore. The autotools test
suite was designed towards working with installed tests, but it didn't
really still, and now with meson, it doesn't install anything at all,
but instead makes sure that everything runs with the uninstalled input
files, binaries and libraries when running the test suite. Installable
tests may come later.
Tests from cogl, clutter and mutter are run on 'meson test'. In
autotools, only cogl and clutter tests were run on 'make check'.
Install include files in
$prefix/include/mutter-$apiversion/[clutter,cogl,...,meta]/, and
datafiles in /usr/share/mutter-$apiversion/.... We still would conflict
e.g. given that our gettext name is "mutter", and how keybindings are
installed, but it's a step in the right direction.
In order to minimize the amount of breakage, while at the same time
making it easier to make backward incompatible changes needed to
continue turning libmutter into a capable Wayland compositor, make the
libmutter and friends (libmutter-clutter, libmutter-cogl*) parallel
installable by adding a version number to the name. This changes
various filenames, for example what previously was libmutter.so is now
libmutter-0.so (assuming the version for now is 0), and
libmutter-clutter-1.0.so is now libmutter-clutter-0.so. The pkg-config
filenames and GObject introspection has been renamed to reflect this as
well.
This enables a downstream compositor rely on a specific version of the
libmutter API, while gracefully handling API/ABI changes by having to
update to the new version at their own pace.

Mutter (and libmutter users) are the only users of this version of
cogl, and will more or less only use the cogl-1.0, cogl-2.0 and cogl
experimental API variants, and having the possibility of having
different API versions of the same API depending on what file includes
it is error prone and confusing. Lets just remove the possibility of
having different versions of the same API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=768977
In cogl use cogl-config.h and in clutter use clutter-build-config.h. We
can't use clutter-config.h in clutter because its already used and
installed.
