A large number of core features require Tracker to work, and many of the
new features using Tracker don't have any fallback support, failing to
build when Tracker is not available, so make tracker a hard requirement.

As of 0.40.0, Meson has the ability to initialize subprojects that are
git submodules. This removes the need for a separate script to achieve
that.

EXIF and Exempi are currently only being detected due to an oversight.
This commit makes Meson define the preprocessor macros needed to use the
libraries.

As some users or developers might choose to install repo builds, they
would also have to compile the installed GSettings schema manually. This
commit adds a script that does that post-install.

Some build servers don’t have git installed, which makes the tarball
build fail when trying to update the libgd submodule. This commit adds a
check for the existence of the root meson.build of libgd before running
git.

Since Continuous does not have GTK-Doc and jhbuild users don’t usually
care about generating documentation, it makes sense to disable it by
default.

We know we have deprecations functions, and they require a major work
as porting to gtk4.
That's truly a different task to what we are doing every day, and the
multiple warnings obscure all real warnings to the task that is
relevant at that point.
This is making contributors skip the warnings, rather than actually look
at them.
For that, ignore deprecation warnings for now until someone wants to
work in the gtk4 port, and we also assume you read the documentation
when introducing new code in order to avoid deprecations.
Since testing is planned to be done with actual views and no one has
built Nautilus with the empty view enabled recently, it is safe to say
that it should go. This commit removes the empty view.

Since it’s 2017 already, Nautilus should use a build system that doesn’t
take longer to set up the build than it takes to actually build. An
observed build time using Ninja of roughly one-fifth of what it took
Autotools is more than reason enough to add support for Meson. Along
with that, this commit adds a convenience script to generate a tarball
for releases, since we use libgd as a submodule and Meson does not
handle source distributions.
