Update meson.build and add wrapfiles so that all dependencies are
handled as subprojects.

This allows builds completely outside of bitbake or an SDK.

Tested: built phosphor-debug-collector repo successfully using
        `meson -Dtests build`.

Change:
-Serialize method does not use any of the watch functionalities,
so defining set in serialization header as using watch header
creates unnecessary dependency.

Test:
Added 3 test cases related to dump serialization.
Ran the UTs on docker environment.

Result:
1/1 debug_inif_test OK             1.48s

Removing autotools build infrastructure because, phosphor-debug-collector
will support meson build tool so, maintaining two build tool is
unnecessary so, removed.

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.
