[Post-RIIC++] Implement linter

[JCWasmx86]

mesonlsp will stay the same. A tool called mesonlint will be introduced that can be used as a full-blown linter. Features

• Formatting with (statically linked) muon.
• Use of a config file (.meson_lint?, maybe avoid using the meson prefix too much) for passing analysis/formatting options (E.g. to disable/enable checks or to set the severity)
• CI Integration (See [Post-RIIC++] Integrate with Github Workflow commands #40)

if we could get formatting and linting upstream into Meson, I think that would be best :)

I notice mesonlint in 4.1.8. 😄 It looks like documents are few. And a pre-commit-hooks is necessary.

[JCWasmx86]

It's currently not usable/finished and was only in the release due to more important things (Vulnerability fixes). If it's finished, feel free to provide required stuff for pre-commit hooks

There is now a linter in the main branch. It supports formatting with muon and just does the same as mesonlsp, just a bit fancier.

Current status:

• Not all things from meson format are supported => Will add them to my muon fork and eventually upstream them: Conflict between muon fmt and meson format
• Too many log messages
• Not integrated with the language server
• .mesonlint.toml as config file

Things I want:

• Github Action Integration (Maybe even a Github Action just for linting, like e.g. Shellcheck)
• More fixes
• Integration with language server

The formatting options of meson format are now in muon, too thanks to the work of Annacrombie: muon-build/muon@58e3eaa

This is now implemented. If somebody wants pre-commit hooks, patches are welcome
