Patch from a series of patches to rename EAPI symbols to specific
library DSOs.
EAPI was designed to be able to pass
```__attribute__ ((visibility ("default")))``` for symbols with
GCC, which would mean that even if -fvisibility=hidden was used
when compiling the library, the needed symbols would get exported.
MSVC __almost__ works like GCC (or mingw) in which you can
declare everything as export and it will just work (slower, but
it will work). But there's a caveat: global variables will not
work the same way for MSVC, but works for mingw and GCC.
For global variables (as opposed to functions), MSVC requires
correct DSO visibility for MSVC: instead of declaring a symbol as
export for everything, you need to declare it as import when
importing from another DSO and export when defining it locally.
With current EAPI definitions, we get the following example
working in mingw and MSVC (observe it doesn't define any global
variables as exported symbols).
Example 1:
dll1:
```
EAPI void foo(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI void foo()
{
printf ("foo\n");
}
```
This works fine with API defined as __declspec(dllexport) in both
cases and for gcc defining as
```__atttribute__((visibility("default")))```.
However, the following:
Example 2:
dll1:
```
EAPI extern int foo;
EAPI void foobar(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo = 5;
foobar();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI int foo = 0;
EAPI void foobar()
{
printf ("foo %d\n", foo);
}
```
This will work on mingw but will not work for MSVC. And that's why
EAPI is the only solution that worked for MSVC.

Elua is now disabled by default. There are some other changes:
1) Elua scripts are only installed if Elua is enabled
2) Lua bindings are only installed if Elua is enabled
3) Elua with interpreter is clearly experimental and will message
This doesn't fully work yet as e.g. Eolian bindings require
the bitop module only present in luajit for now.
In order to build, you will need to install
https://github.com/q66/cffi-lua
in order to provide the FFI. It needs to be built for the Lua
version you are building EFL with.
Summary: EAPI must be defined to dllexport when building DLL, and to dllimport when using these DLL. To achieve this, define EFL_BUILD for each library and module, and set DLL_EXPORT unconditionally. Static library are and will be not supported

Currently, edje.pc gets its lua Requires from the -Dlua-interpreter argument.
If -Dlua-interpreter=lua, an unversioned lua entry ends up in Requires, which
cannot always be satisifed. The evas filters meson.build handles this case by
generating a version-specific entry. This patch copies that logic into the top
level meson.build, and passes the result to the edje subproject.

Summary:
it the .pc file of luajit carries linker flags that causes compilation
fails on macos, thus we need to split up the .pc file into our own
dependency, and use it with causion

this patch is for selecting lua interpreter such as luajit, lua51
and in addition, little more changes to unify lua dependency over efl

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.
