The old `CC=.. CXX= .. meson ...` env var hack I removed in
3c00ca03a2 had a side effect of ensuring
that Meson always had access to a native C compiler, which unforunately
it expects in most cases. Thankfully, that will be fixed soon.
The cross file is added in the `mkDerivation`. It isn't nice putting
build tool-specific stuff here, but our current architecture gives us
little alternative.
See comment in code and the PR it references,
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/6827, for details.
We can remove entries from the cross file because they will be gotten
from env vars now.
As documented, it should be `aarch64` for AArch64.
* https://mesonbuild.com/Reference-tables.html#cpu-families
```
$ nix eval '((import <nixpkgs> {}).pkgsCross.aarch64-multiplatform.stdenv.targetPlatform.parsed.cpu.family)'
"arm"
```
The lookup table will ensure that, at any point, meson does not pick the
wrong family.
I *want* cross-specific overrides to be verbose, so I rather not have
this shorthand. This makes the syntactic overhead more proportional to
the maintainence cost. Hopefully this pushes people towards fewer
conditionals and more abstractions.

* Revert "meson: 0.46.1 -> 0.47.0"
With meson 0.47.0 (or 0.47.1, or git)
things are very wrong re:rpath handling
resulting in at best missing libs but
even corrupt binaries :(.
When we run patchelf it masks the problem
by removing obviously busted paths.
Which is probably why this wasn't noticed immediately.
Unfortunately the binary already
has a long series of paths scribbled
in a space intended for a much smaller string;
in my testing it was something like
lengths were 67 with 300+ written to it.
I think we've reported the relevant issues upstream,
but unfortunately it appears our patches
are what introduces the overwrite/corruption
(by no longer being correct in what they assume)
This doesn't look so bad to fix but it's
not something I can spend more time on
at the moment.
--
Interestingly the overwritten string data
(because it is scribbled past the bounds)
remains in the binary and is why we're suddenly
seeing unexpected references in various builds
-- notably this is is the reason we're
seeing the "extra-utils" breakage
that entirely crippled NixOS on master
(and probably on staging before?).
Fixes#43650.
This reverts commit 305ac4dade.

Upstream insists on not allowing bindir and other dir options
outside of prefix for some reason:
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/2561
We remove the check so multiple outputs can work sanely.
In common distributions, RPATH is only needed for internal libraries so
meson removes everything else. With Nix, the locations of libraries
are not as predictable, therefore we need to keep them in the RPATH. [1]
Previously we have just kept the RPATH produced by the linker, patching
meson not to remove it. This deprived us of potentially replacing it
with install_rpath provided by project so we had to re-add it manually,
and also introduced a vulnerability of keeping build paths in RPATH.
This commit restores the clean-up but modifies it so the items starting
with /nix/store are retained.
This should be relatively safe since the store is immutable, however,
there might be some unwanted retainment of build_rpath [2] if it contains
paths from Nix store.
