All working tests have already migrated to the test suite using mutter;
move the old unported tests over too, and remove the conform test
framework, as it is no longer used.

Until meson 0.50, setting the install parameter in 'configure_file' is ignored
if 'install_dir' is set. Then until mutter doesn't depend on such meson version
cogl_installed_tests_libexecdir should be empty unless have_installed_tests is
false, or this file will be installed anyway.
See https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/4160
This is the last remaining feature necessary to achieve
parity with the Autotools build.
A few changes were made to the install locations of the
tests, in order to better acomodate them in Meson:
* Tests are now installed under a versioned folder (e.g.
/usr/share/installed-tests/mutter-4)
* The mutter-cogl.test file is now generated from an .in
file, instead of a series of $(echo)s from within Makefile.
Notice that those tests need very controlled environments
to run correctly. Mutter installed tests, for example, will
failed when running under a regular session due to D-Bus
failing to acquire the ScreenCast and/or RemoteScreen names.
Since now we don't set the swap throttled value based
on sync-to-vblank, we can effectively remove it from
Cogl. Throttling swap buffers in Cogl is as much a
historical artifact as sync-to-vblank. Furthermore,
it doesn't make sense to disable it on a compositor,
which is the case with the embedded Cogl.
In addition to that, the winsys vfunc for updating
whenever swap throttling changes could also be removed,
since swap throttling is always enabled now.
Removing it means less code, less branches when running,
and one less config option to deal with.
This also removes the micro-perf test, since it doesn't
make sense for the case where Cogl is embedded into the
compositor.

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'.
