A Python script that downloads a release of the Meson build system to
./meson-portable/. Use it in your projects if your meson.build uses new
Meson features not widely available in Linux distro repositories yet and you
don't want to require users to pip install meson. Also use it to freeze a
specific version of Meson that you know works correctly.
Copy the the file getmeson.py into your source tree. Update VERSION
and SHA256 at the top of the script when you want to change the
version it downloads.
-n signals a dry run (print what is going to be downloaded).
Exit code of 0 is good, it means you already have Meson or the download was successful. Exit code of 1 means that something went wrong.
