This is follow up work to my previous series. I've tried to make the
Meson build mirror the CMake build more closely. I've also made an
attempt at adding some instructions to the documents on using Meson.

This series cleans up and modernizes the Meson code a bit:
- It adds the license SPDX name to the proper field
- Sets a minimum version, the version is fairly old, but without setting
a version then Meson will never warn about issues, including potentially
important ones like "this happens to work in some cases but wasn't
intended and doesn't work in all cases"
- uses more modern Meson features to make things easier for consumers
- Fixes the tests using the ensure_utf8 helpers by ensuring that they're
actually built, and placing them in the correct path.
- Adds the Meson test to the CI
* meson: add support for testsuite
* meson: fix deprecation warning for run_command with unchecked return code
This would implicitly default to false, so if something bizarre happened
and the command errored out, meson would consider that fine. Now meson
emits a warning about this deprecated legacy behavior, suggests that it
will eventually change, and, most importantly, prevents a warning-free
build.
Suppress the warning by manually specifying the sensible behavior, which
is to fail on errors.
* meson: download catch2 on demand if a system version is unavailable
Produced by running `meson wrap install catch2` and checking the results
into git.
No modifications to the build files are expected; this makes use of
https://mesonbuild.com/Wrap-dependency-system-manual.html#provide-section
* style: pre-commit.ci fixes
* ci: add meson build to the CI
* ci: meson doesn't depend on ninja or or have a ninja extra
* ci: minor cleanup to Meson job

* meson: Basic meson support
With this patch, CLI11 can be used as a meson
subproject: http://mesonbuild.com/Subprojects.html
However, CMake is still required for testing and
installation. The current meson.build is not a
complete replacement.
* meson: Added meson test
* Adding Azure test
