Subprojects can use meson.add_dist_script() if meson.version() >= 0.58.0

* meson.build:
* MSVC_NMake/meson.build:
* docs/manual/meson.build:
* docs/reference/meson.build:
* sigc++/meson.build:
Call add_dist_script() in a subproject, if meson.version() >= 0.58.0.
* tools/handle-built-files.py:
* tools/tutorial-custom-cmd.py:
Use MESON_PROJECT_DIST_ROOT if it exists, else MESON_DIST_ROOT.
It exists if meson.version() >= 0.58.0.
