i was comparing the bindir results of aurtofoo vs meson and some
things were missing/poking out at me. this makes them be in sync -
install the ewl_wl+test obnaries, ensure to chmod +x+r etc. scritps
AND install them
the inital work for this commit was coming from `Mark van der Putten`.
In order to not have more options for this, the idea came up to use
mesons autodetection using PATH.
If a cross file is specified, the binaries are used from the system,
rather than from the intree. (Which means --cross-file has the
dependency of efl on the buildsystem)

a new shiny buildtool that currently completes in the total of ~ 4 min..
1 min. conf time
2:30 min. build time
Where autotools takes:
1:50 min. conf time
3:40 min. build time.
meson was taken because it went quite good for enlightenment, and is a traction gaining system that is also used by other mayor projects. Additionally, the DSL that is defined my meson makes the configuration of the builds a lot easier to read.
Further informations can be gathered from the README.meson
Right now, bindings & windows support are missing.
It is highly recommented to use meson 0.48 due to optimizations in meson
that reduced the time the meson call would need.
