Autotools is slow. It is so slow that it takes some of the joy out of
hacking on the ndctl project. A fellow developer points out that QEMU
has moved to meson, and systemd has moved as well. An initial conversion
of ndctl to meson shows speed gains as large as an order of magnitude
improvement, and that result motivates the formal patches below to
complete the conversion.

Given that this change breaks scripts built for automating the autotools
style build, the old autotools environment is kept working until all the
meson conversion bugs have been worked out, and downstream users have
had a chance to adjust.

Other immediate benefits beside build speed is a unit test execution
harness with more capability and flexibility. It allows tests to be
organized by category and has a framework to support timeout as a test
failure.
