configure: automatically parse command line for meson -D options

Right now meson_options.txt lists about 90 options.  Each option
needs code in configure to parse it and pass the option down to Meson as
a -D command-line argument; in addition the default must be duplicated
between configure and meson_options.txt.  This series tries to remove
the code duplication by generating the case statement for those --enable
and --disable options, as well as the corresponding help text.

About 80% of the options can be handled completely by the new mechanism.
Eight meson options are not of the --enable/--disable kind.  Six more need
to be parsed in configure for various reasons documented in the patch,
but they still have their help automatically generated.

The advantages are:

- less code in configure

- parsing and help is more consistent (for example --enable-blobs was
  not supported)

- options are described entirely in one place, meson_options.txt.
  This make it more attractive to use Meson options instead of
  hand-crafted configure options and config-host.mak

A few options change name: --enable-tcmalloc and --enable-jemalloc
become --enable-malloc={tcmalloc,jemalloc}; --disable-blobs becomes
--disable-install-blobs; --enable-trace-backend becomes
--enable-trace-backends.  However, the old names are allowed
for backwards compatibility.

+The configure script automatically recognizes
+command line options for which a same-named Meson option exists;
+dashes in the command line are replaced with underscores.
+
+Many checks on the compilation environment are still found in configure
+rather than `meson.build`, but new checks should be added directly to
+`meson.build`.
+
+Patches are also welcome to move existing checks from the configure
+phase to `meson.build`.  When doing so, ensure that `meson.build` does
+not use anymore the keys that you have removed from `config-host.mak`.
+Typically these will be replaced in `meson.build` by boolean variables,
+``get_option('optname')`` invocations, or `dep.found()` expressions.
+In general, the remaining checks have little or no interdependencies,
+so they can be moved one by one.

+Adding checks
+-------------
+
+New checks should be added to Meson.  Compiler checks can be as simple as
+the following::
+
+  config_host_data.set('HAVE_BTRFS_H', cc.has_header('linux/btrfs.h'))
+
+A more complex task such as adding a new dependency usually
+comprises the following tasks:
+
+ - Add a Meson build option to meson_options.txt.
+
+ - Add code to perform the actual feature check.
+
+ - Add code to include the feature status in `config-host.h`
+
+ - Add code to print out the feature status in the configure summary
+   upon completion.
+
+Taking the probe for SDL2_Image as an example, we have the following
+in ``meson_options.txt``::
+
+  option('sdl_image', type : 'feature', value : 'auto',
+         description: 'SDL Image support for icons')
+
+Unless the option was given a non-``auto`` value (on the configure
+command line), the detection code must be performed only if the
+dependency will be used::
+
+  sdl_image = not_found
+  if not get_option('sdl_image').auto() or have_system
+    sdl_image = dependency('SDL2_image', required: get_option('sdl_image'),
+                           method: 'pkg-config',
+                           static: enable_static)
+  endif
+
+This avoids warnings on static builds of user-mode emulators, for example.
+Most of the libraries used by system-mode emulators are not available for
+static linking.
+
+The other supporting code is generally simple::
+
+  # Create config-host.h (if applicable)
+  config_host_data.set('CONFIG_SDL_IMAGE', sdl_image.found())
+
+  # Summary
+  summary_info += {'SDL image support': sdl_image.found()}
+
+For the configure script to parse the new option, the
+``scripts/meson-buildoptions.sh`` file must be up-to-date; ``make
+update-buildoptions`` (or just `make`) will take care of updating it.
