using meson and having to link it to another project which is still
using the autotools.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
