Currently this tells people that the settings should not be touched, but
we should just rely on the description of what it should be set to, and
leave it up to the user. With the previous patch, makepkg aborts if an
invalid value is set, greatly reducing the danger of it being badly
configured.
Also make this clearer by indicating when it would be useful to change
the settings -- i.e. disable compression -- and ensure their described
defaults are based on the ones established during ./configure or meson
setup.

If an alternative rootdir is specified in either meson or configure it's
not respected in the generated man pages.

A number of pages don't actually exist as html inside the source tree,
and need to be generated even though they are manpages.
This caused the website.tar.gz target to only work inside a dirty tree
initially created by autotools.

Provide both build systems in parallel for now, to ensure that we work
out all the differences between the two. Some time from now, we'll give
up on autotools.
Meson tends to be faster and probably easier to read/maintain. On my
machine, the full meson configure+build+install takes a little under
half as long as a similar autotools-based invocation.
Building with meson is a two step process. First, configure the build:
meson build
Then, compile the project:
ninja -C build
There's some mild differences in functionality between meson and
autotools. specifically:
1) No singular update-po target. meson only generates individual
update-po targets for each textdomain (of which we have 3). To make
this easier, there's a build-aux/update-po script which finds all
update-po targets and runs them.
2) No 'make dist' equivalent. Just run 'git archive' to generate a
suitable tarball for distribution.
