Right now, extension specific window destruction procedures are implemented
by wrapping the ScreenRec's DestroyWindow() proc pointer: the extensions are
storing the original pointer in their private data and putting in their own one.
On each call, their proc restores the original one, calls it, and switches back
again. When multiple extensions doing so, they're forming a kind of daisy chain.
(the same is done for lots of other procs)
While that approach is looking nice and elegant on the drawing board, it's
complicated, dangerous like a chainsaw and makes debugging hard, leading to
pretty blurred API borders.
This commit introduces a simple approach for letting extension hook into the
window destruction safely, w/o having to care much about side effects with
the call chain. Extensions now can simply register their destructor proc
(and an opaque pointer) and get called back - w/o ever having to mess with
the ScreenRec's internal structures.

This is a work in progress that builds Xvfb, Xephyr, Xwayland, Xnest,
and Xdmx so far. The outline of Xquartz/Xwin support is in tree, but
hasn't been built yet. The unit tests are also not done.
The intent is to build this as a complete replacement for the
autotools system, then eventually replace autotools. meson is faster
to generate the build, faster to run the bulid, shorter to write the
build files in, and less error-prone than autotools.
v2: Fix indentation nits, move version declaration to project(), use
existing meson_options for version-config.h's vendor name/web.
