Build and target info is confusing in that case. However still log that
information, as it is useful in case something slips out of sync and
needs to be debugged.
* coredata: Correctly handle receiving a pipe for native/cross files
In some cases a cross/native file may be a pipe, such as when using bash
process replacement `meson --native-file
<([binaries]llvm-config='/opt/bin/llvm-config')`, for example. In this
case we copy the contents of the pipe into a file in the meson-private
directory so we can create a proper ninja dependency, and be able to
reload the file on --wipe/--reconfigure. This requires some extra
negotiation to preserve these native/cross files.
Fixes#5505
* run_unitests: Add a unit test for native files that are pipes
Using mkfifo.
This creates a new command line option to store pkg_config_path into,
and store the environment variable into that option. Currently this
works like the environment variable, for both cross and native targets.
This seems to be related to deleting the current working directory.
Simply deleting all of the trees inside the build directory instead
seems to fix it. This only appears with some combination of generated
targets, running the test case against say "1 trivial" doesn't show the
bug.

It is similar to --reconfigure but completely wipe the build directory
first. It is intended to make easier to rebuild project when builddir somehow
got corrupted.
Fixes#3542.
Write command line options into a separate file to be able to
reconfigure from scatch in the case coredata cannot be loaded. The most
common case is when we are reconfiguring with a newer meson version.
This means that we should try as much as possible to maintain backward
compatibility for the cmd_line.txt file format.
The main difference with a normal reconfigure is it will use new
default options values and will read again environment variables like
CFLAGS, etc.
This has the adventage that "meson --help" shows a list of all commands,
making them discoverable. This also reduce the manual parsing of
arguments to the strict minimum needed for backward compatibility.
