switch to meson build

Anton Akhmerov requested to merge meson into master

This is a work in progress effort to modernize our build machinery and use meson, recently adopted by the scipy stack.

In doing this I also follow the approach adopted by the scipy stack of using Tempita, Cython's built-in templating engine.

Rough plan:

  • Change the build infrastructure to use meson-python and pyproject.toml
  • Implement environment-dependent search for mumps (right now I target conda-forge) Library names can now be passed via a meson build option.
  • Figure out the development workflow (running tests etc)
  • Update CI
  • Explore conda packaging

Also closes #19 (closed) and #11 (closed) (I cleaned up a bunch of code for a good measure).
