Thread: Add meson.build to version_stamp.pl

Thinking ahead a bit, we need to add meson.build to version_stamp.pl.

Maybe someone can think of a better sed expression, but this one seems 
good enough to me for now.

I think it would be better to not rely on the line numbers, but instead
limit it to the project() stanza, something like this:

sed_file("meson.build",
    qq{-e "/^project(/,/^)/ s/ version: '[0-9a-z.]*',/ version: '$fullversion',/"}
);

Good idea.  I was wondering for a moment whether we should put the version
into some file instead, and reference that from meson.build - but the
convenient way to do that is only in 0.56, which we currently don't want to
require...  We could work around it, but it doesn't seem necessary for now.

Yea, that looks nicer.
