Yeah, we need to iron out the wrinkles, but at least the macros make sense
now and
correctly build projects using meson as build system. With our macros it
was a mess
of setting up with meson and then building directly with ninja what
resulted in rebuilds
during install and hard to track build issues.

My take is that we need to update global macros to set compiler paths and
our rust tricks,
patch meson to comply with the rest of our macros and drop %meson macro from
PLD rpm global macros.
