[PATCH 0/4] Add meson wrap fallback for slirp & dtc

[marcandre . lureau]

From: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com>

Hi,

Meson "wrap" is a mechanism to build dependencies that doesn't rely on git
submodules and integrate external dependencies as subproject()s.

This offers developpers a simpler way to build QEMU with missing system
dependencies (ex, libslirp in my case), but also simplify the fallback build
definition of dtc/libfdt.

In constrast with QEMU configure submodule handling, the subprojects are not
downloaded automatically, and the user has to call "meson subprojects download"
himself prior to running configure/meson.

Marc-André Lureau (4):
  mtest2make.py: teach suite name that are just "PROJECT"
  build-sys: prevent meson from downloading wrapped subprojects
  build-sys: add slirp.wrap
  build-sys: replace dtc submodule with dtc.wrap
