For usability, the default build type in meson is static, so that
binaries can be run from the build directory easily. However, static
builds take more space, so for build-testing purposes default to using
shared builds where possible.

The default test script covers only default host cc compiler, either gcc or
clang, the fix is to increase the coverage by adding one more to cover
clang and the others for gcc.

On some linux distributions, eg: CentOS, the ninja executable has a
different name: ninja-build, this patch is to check and adapt to it
accordingly.

For cross-builds the CC environmental variable only applies for compiling
native binaries i.e. pmdinfogen, so setting it to a cross-build compiler
will only cause problems. Leave the value unset in the script to use the
platform-default compiler.

To simplify testing with the meson and ninja builds, we can add a script
to set up and do multiple builds. Currently this script sets up:
* clang and gcc builds
* builds using static and shared linkage for binaries (libs are always
built as both)
* a build using the lowest instruction-set level for x86 (-march=nehalem)
* cross-builds for each cross-file listed in config/arm
Each build is configured in a directory ending in *-build, and then for
the build stage, we just call ninja in each directory in turn. [i.e. we
assume every directory starting with "build-" is a meson build, which is
probably an ok assumption].
