QEMU binaries no longer launch successfully with recent SystemTap
releases. This is because modular QEMU builds link the sdt semaphores
into the main binary instead of into the shared objects where they are
used. The symbol visibility of semaphores is 'hidden' and the dynamic
linker prints an error during module loading:
$ ./configure --enable-trace-backends=dtrace --enable-modules ...
...
Failed to open module: /builddir/build/BUILD/qemu-4.2.0/s390x-softmmu/../block-curl.so: undefined symbol: qemu_curl_close_semaphore
The long-term solution is to generate per-module dtrace .o files and
link them into the module instead of the main binary.
In the short term we can define STAP_SDT_V2 so dtrace(1) produces a .o
file with 'default' symbol visibility instead of 'hidden'. This
workaround is small and easier to merge for QEMU 5.2 and downstream
backports.

Build all executables by default except for the known-broken ones.
This also allows running qemu-iotests without manually building
socket_scm_helper.

When cross-compiling, by default qemu_datadir is 'c:\Program
Files\QEMU', which is not recognized as being an absolute path, and
meson will end up adding the prefix again.

dtrace on macOS uses unresolved symbols with a special prefix to define
probes [1], only headers should be generated for USDT (dtrace(1)). But
it doesn't support backwards compatible no-op -G flag [2] and implicit
build rules fail.

This shows how to do some "computations" in meson.build using its array
and dictionary data structures, and also a basic usage of the sourceset
module for conditional compilation.
Notice the new "if have_system" part of util/meson.build, which fixes
a bug in the old build system was buggy: util/dbus.c was built even for
non-softmmu builds, but the dependency on -lgio was lost when the linking
was done through libqemuutil.a. Because all of its users required gio
otherwise, the bug was hidden. Meson instead propagates libqemuutil's
dependencies down to its users, and shows the problem.
