Used meson modules and directory definitions were placed at the end
of the root meson build file. However, this is recommended to be
placed at the start of the file, so they are usable early.
Following meson portng guidelines[0], `source_root()` and
`build_root()` functions have also been replaced.

meson generates the config.h file with multiple defines to be used
as guards, in the same way as autotools does. However, almost all of
them are not used.
This patch removes the unused defines.

The project license has a different license from the one in the
source code files: GPL2 in the project's description, and GPL2 or
later in the source code files.
The default options for warning level and the no undefined flag when
linking have also the default options already used by meson.
This patch fixes the project license and also removes the default
options which are already used by meson.

Following the new meson porting guidelines, this patch renames the
build options. The list of changes is as follows:
- Remove the enable prefix from boolean options.
- The character separator from multi-word options has been changed
to underscore.
The warning compiler options are also removed because meson's
compiler related options should be used.
