Re: buildfarm + meson

At this stage I think I'm prepared to turn this loose on a couple of my buildfarm animals, and if nothing goes awry for the remainder of the month merge the dev/meson branch and push a new release.

There is still probably a little polishing to do, especially w.r.t. log file artefacts.

A few things I've found:

. We don't appear to have an equivalent of the headerscheck and cpluspluscheck GNUmakefile targets

. I don't know how to build other docs targets (e.g. postgres-US.pdf)

. There appears to be some mismatch in database names (e.g. regression_dblink vs contrib_regression_dblink). That's going to cause some issues with the module that adjusts things for cross version upgrade.

cheers
