The build is conditional on:
* using the Meson build
* passing the `-Denable-docs=true` configuration switch
* having `doxygen` installed
Currently, the generated HTML is kind of empty, but it works.

To avoid a symbols file on Windows, Epoxy annotates all the publicly
visible symbols directly in the source, but uses the default symbol
visibility everywhere else. This means that only some symbols are
annotated as `EPOXY_IMPORTEXPORT`, and generally only on Windows.
Additionally, Epoxy has a private 'PUBLIC' pre-processor macro for
internal use, which duplicates the `EPOXY_IMPORTEXPORT` but contains
more logic to detect GCC, in case we're building with GCC on Windows.
This would be enough, except that EGL is also available on Windows,
which means we'd have to annotate the exported `epoxy_*` API inside
epoxy/egl.h as well. At that point, though, we should probably avoid
any confusion, and adopt a single symbol visibility policy across the
board.
This requires some surgery of the generated and common dispatch sources,
but cuts down the overall complexity:
- there is only one annotation, `EPOXY_PUBLIC`, used everywhere
- the annotation detection is done at Epoxy configuration time
- only annotated symbols are public, on every platform
- annotated symbols are immediately visible from the header

Meson adds `-Wall` for us with `warning_level=1`.

We need to explicitly link against gdi32 in order to access
SetPixelFormat and ChoosetPixelFormat, and the order of the linking is
relevant when using static libraries. This is a slight workaround to the
order of compiler arguments generated by Meson, and it's supposed to go
away in the near future.

Instead of using a generator and having to deal with tweaking the
inclusion paths, we can use a custom target rule, which will do the
right thing and put the generate files where we expect them to be.
Due to how Meson and Ninja work we need to be a bit more careful as to
how we deal with dependencies and generated files, especially since
Epoxy is built on the assumption that the only inclusion path for the
headers lies under the 'include' sub-directory.
First of all, we need to split the dispatch table generation into two
separate steps, one for the headers and one for the source files.
Additionally, we need to munge the paths of the non-generated headers
so that we reference them by their correct path.
These changes are necessary to ensure that Epoxy can be built on a
system without Epoxy installed already; the previous Meson-based build
system relied on the headers being installed in a system directory.

Meson is a Python-based build system that generates build rules of
Ninja, Visual Studio, and XCode. It's designed to be fast, and have a
small, non-Turing complete language to describe the build process,
tests, and dependencies. It's simpler than CMake, and faster than
autotools.
As a direct comparison in terms of speed, three build and check runs for
libepoxy from a clean Git repository clone yield these results on my
Kabylake Core i7 7500U (nproc=4):
- Autotools (make)
Run #1 (cold) real: 22.384s, user: 20.011s, sys: 3.689s
Run #2 (warm) real: 22.429s, user: 20.220s, sys: 3.708s
Run #3 (warm) real: 22.068s, user: 19.743s, sys: 3.594s
- Meson (ninja)
Run #1 (cold) real: 5.932s, user: 9.371s, sys: 1.625s
Run #2 (warm) real: 6.273s, user: 10.066, sys: 1.740s
Run #3 (warm) real: 5.796s, user: 9.233s, sys: 1.607s
Which means that Meson and ninja are approximately 4x faster than
autotools.
In terms of simplicity, the autotools build takes six files and a total
of 645 lines; Meson requires 3 files, and 361 lines to achieve the same
result. Additionally, Meson automatically builds in a separate build
directory and does not leave files inside the source directory; and Meson
does not use libtool.
Since Meson is quite new and still actively developed, we're going to
leave the autotools build in place for a while, with the intention of
switching to Meson in the future.
