Let meson deal with the system differences instead of handling
it manually.
The custom dependency was added in meson 0.59, then gained
static support with 0.60, and static support for cygwin with 0.61,
which is why the meson requirement is bumped to 0.61.
Debian bullseye ships meson 0.56, so switch to bookworm which
has 1.0.1
Currently our gitlab CI is failing due to valgrind breakage. With
Arch stripping glibc, valgrind now requires debuginfod to be active.
However the gitlab CI system combined without our testsuite does not
retrieve these symbols, even when the appropriate environmental
variable is set.
Work around this by installing the glibc-debug package directly
using a slight kludge... All blame for this approach is assigned
to foutrelis!

This reverts commit e348ba3881.
With the above commit we started caching the downloaded packages. Based
on some testing and, it saves ~30s in the "step_script" stage while
adding 18s for "Restoring/Saving cache". A net saving of ~10s.
With earlier commit, we no longer use an ancient image which also pulls
base-devel - thus the packages we have to download is minimal.
Now comparing the uncached "step_script", vs the cached one - it is
slowed by 2-3 seconds (1:01 -> 1:03), while we eliminate the 18s (and
growing) caching.
Tl:Dr: With up-to date image, package caching in not worth it - be that
time, disk or network wise.

The archlinux/base have been deprecated. Since we depend on base-devel
simply use archlinux:base-devel

Arch Linux is setting up a Gitlab instance. This adds CI for the pacman
project, testing a range of configurations on Arch and basic builds on
Fedora and Debian.
Note that asciidoc is specifically not installed on the Debian run because
it is all sorts of broken... Also, the defaults have been set to meson, with
two autotools tests that will soon be removed.
