It is quite confusing seeing these two in a call like this one:
$ meson build $MESON_OPTS $MESON_ARGS
One has to ask 'how are they different' and 'shouldn't these be
merged'. In fact, these variables hold very different things and we
should make it more obvious. The problem is that renaming MESON_OPTS to
something more meaningful, like 'MESON_CROSS_OPTS' which is what
MESON_OPTS really does would require changes to lcitool and would
impact Dockerfile generation which in turn might have an impact on
other projects which rely on this lcitool functionality which is risky.
Instead, provide a docstring for the former to supplement the latter
and join the two variables in a single one MESON_ARGS which is then
passed to meson's command line so it's a little less confusing.

Although it is currently consistent with the other variables we define
when running ci in a local container environment, it isn't consistent
with the variable naming we use in GitLab recipes. Since the idea is
to unite the two, we're likely going to drop a few other variables from
the local env configuration anyway, hence this renaming.

There's no harm in always building in system mode, i.e. setting the

Even though 'setup' is assumed when no other command is given, we're
being explicit in our GitLab recipes, so do the same for the local
build.sh script too.

build.sh is not the place where this should be mentioned as the
official entrypoint for this script locally is ci/helper which can
download the right image from our upstream CI registry. Since the idea
is to ultimately drop the usage of a Makefile for the local executions,
this patch doesn't provide an alternative place for the comment in
question as the functionality is going to be altered substantially in
the future.

This is necessary for the follow up patch, because the default

Add meson required bits to the ci logic in the repo to be able to run
a meson build in a container.
This patch also drops several environment variables we don't need with
meson anymore.

This deletes all trace of gnulib from libvirt. We still
have the keycodemapdb submodule to deal with. The simple
solution taken was to update it when running autogen.sh.
Previously gnulib could auto-trigger refresh when running
'make' too. We could figure out a solution for this, but
with the pending meson rewrite it isn't worth worrying
about, given how infrequently keycodemapdb changes.

Instead of hardcoding build instructions into the Makefile,
move them to a separate script that's mounted into the
container.
This gives us a couple of advantages: we no longer have to
deal with the awkward quoting required when embedding shell
code in a Makefile, and we also provide the users with a way
to override the default build instructions with their own.
