gitk: introduce support for the Meson build system

Upstream Git has introduced support for the Meson build system.
Introduce support for Meson into gitk, as well, so that Git can easily
build its vendored copy of Gitk via a `subproject()` directive. The
instructions can be set up as follows:

  $ meson setup build
  $ meson compile -C build
  $ meson install -C build

Specific options, like for example where Gitk shall be installed to, can
be specified at setup time via `-D`. Available options can be discovered
by running `meson configure` either in the source or build directory.
