    In this commit enabled meson build infrastructure which is taking less
    time than autotools to build.
    
    Changes:
      - Same default value used for all build time configure option.
      - All external library checks are added into meson as well.
      - In meson, no need to mention list of files which are not required
        to install because, by default nothing will be installed.
      - Auto generated files are added into custom target and that will
        trigger when some target dependent with that.
      - In meson, enabled to treat warning as error so, modified few sources
        which are producing un-used variables.
            - Fixes made by removing those function parameters identifier alone.
    
    By using meson, can able to see below built improvement time between meson
    and autotools.
    
    meson:
        - time sh -c 'meson builddir -Dhost-dump-offload-transport=pldm
           -Dubifs-workaround=enabled; ninja -C builddir/'
                real    0m12.244s
                user    0m57.575s
                sys     0m7.793s
    
    autotools:
        - time sh -c 'autoreconf -i;
          ./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS} --enable-ubifs-workaround
           --with-host-dump-offload-transport=pldm; make'
                real    1m16.539s
                user    1m2.738s
                sys     0m9.645s
    
    TestedBy:
        - meson builddir
          ninja -C builddir
    
        - meson builddir -Dubifs-workaround=enabled
          ninja -C builddir
    
        - meson builddir -Dubifs-workaround=disabled
          ninja -C builddir
    
        - meson builddir -Dhost-dump-offload-transport=pldm
          ninja -C builddir
    
        - meson builddir -Dhost-dump-offload-transport=pldm \
                         -Dubifs-workaround=enabled
          ninja -C builddir
    
    Note: Need to update openbmc phosphor-debug-collector recipe to use meson
          instead autotools, this will be updated once this patch got merged
          and also autotools build infrastructure will be removed as well.
