doc: Tweak text about get_option('foodir') in reference manual [skip ci]
...
* The example for executable()'s install_dir: should use join_paths()
* Clarify how to use directory options which are potentially not prefix
relative
This is mentioned in https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1637 and see
also https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/200373/ for an example of this
usage, and the possible confusion that can arise.

Allow passing a compiler object to run_command()
...
Sometimes it is needed to run the current compiler with specific options
not to compile a file but rather to obtain additional info. For example,
GCC has several -print-* options to query it about the paths to
different libraries and development files. One use case is to get the
location of development files for GCC plugins, which is not easily
obtainable by other means:
gcc -print-file-name=plugin
For this purpose, it would be convenient if the compiler object returned
by meson.get_compiler(lang) could be used in run_command() directly.
This commit implements it.

Allow for missing install_dir in install_data()
...
The documentation doesn't require it and the interpreter code works around the
possibility of it being None. The ninja backend code however fails with
File "/home/whot/code/meson/mesonbuild/backend/ninjabackend.py", line 796, in generate_data_install
dstabs = os.path.join(subdir or None, plain_f)
File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/posixpath.py", line 78, in join
a = os.fspath(a)
TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType
If install_dir is missing, default to datadir/projectname

Don't use --export-dynamic on Cygwin
...
After PR #2662 , running test case common/125 shared module/ on Cygwin gets
me:
$ ninja -C _build
ninja: Entering directory `_build'
[7/7] Linking target prog.exe.
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/6.4.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: warning: --export-dynamic is not supported for PE+ targets, did you mean --export-all-symbols?
Also, fix doc for correct version of first apperance.
Future work: Notwithstanding the hint that ld gives, these options are not
equivalent, and it's not clear we should be using it here:
--export-all-symbols is the default behaviour, and if the exports are
restricted by explicit annotations or a .def file, this option might be
overriding that...
