People might have GST_TRACERS=leaks set in their environment
by default, which will now trigger criticals during the build
when calling g-ir-scanner, because we unset GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH
so that the scanner doesn't load any plugins.

Starting with Meson 0.62, meson automatically populates the variables
list in the pkgconfig file if you reference builtin directories in the
pkgconfig file (whether via a custom pkgconfig variable or elsewhere).
We need this, because ${prefix}/libexec is a hard-coded value which is
incorrect on, for example, Debian.
Bump requirement to 0.62, and remove version compares that retained
support for older Meson versions.

GLib made the unfortunate decision to prevent libgobject from ever being
unloaded, which means that now any library which registers a static type
can't ever be unloaded either (and any library that depends on those,
ad nauseam).

They are part of gst_dep already and we have to make sure to always have
gst_dep. The order in dependencies matters, because it is also the order
in which Meson will set -I args. We want gstreamer's config.h to take
precedence over glib's private config.h when it's a subproject.
While at it, remove useless fallback args for gmodule/gio dependencies,
only gstreamer core needs it.

For monorepo build and ugly/bad, for advanced feature
option API like get_option('xyz').required(..) which
we use in combination with the 'gpl' option.
For rest of modules for consistency (people will likely
use newer features based on the top-level requirement).

Introduces a `libraries` variable that contains all libraries in a
list with the following format:
``` meson
libraries = [
[pkg_name, {
'lib': library_object
'gir': [ {full gir definition in a dict } ]
],
....
]
```
It therefore refactors the way we build the gir so that we can reuse the
same information to build them against 'gstreamer-full' in gst-build
when linking statically
