Instead of invoking meson-add-wants.sh once for each wants that has
to be added, we pass all wants to a single invocation of
meson-add-wants.sh and in meson-add-wants.sh, loop over the
arguments.
This saves about 300ms on the install step.

MESON_INSTALL_QUIET is set when --quiet is passed to meson install.
Make sure we check the variable in our custom install scripts and
don't output anything if it is set.
We had all kinds of indentation: 2 sp, 3 sp, 4 sp, 8 sp, and mixed.
4 sp was the most common, in particular the majority of scripts under test/
used that. Let's standarize on 4 sp, because many commandlines are long and
there's a lot of nesting, and with 8sp indentation less stuff fits. 4 sp
also seems to be the default indentation, so this will make it less likely
that people will mess up if they don't load the editor config. (I think people
often use vi, and vi has no support to load project-wide configuration
automatically. We distribute a .vimrc file, but it is not loaded by default,
and even the instructions in it seem to discourage its use for security
reasons.)
Also remove the few vim config lines that were left. We should either have them
on all files, or none.
Also remove some strange stuff like '#!/bin/env bash', yikes.
We would create a useless empty directory under build/.
It seems we were lucky and all symlinks were installed into directories
which were alredy created because we installed something into the same
location earlier.
While at it, also add '-v' to 'mkdir -p'. This will print the names of
directories as they are created (just once), making it easier to see all of
what the install script is doing.
Shell scripts should be executable so that meson reports their
invocation succinctly (does not print 'sh' '-e').
Python scripts should not be executable so that meson does the
detection of the right python binary itself.
Add -u everywhere to catch potential errors.
This is the equivalent of $(SYSTEM_UNIT_ALIASES) and $(GENERAL_ALIASES)
in Makefile.am.
ninja-build uninstall does not remove the symlinks, see
https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1602.
I don't consider this a blocker: after all either one installs into $DESTDIR,
where uninstallation doesn't make much sense, or into a real system, where a
successfull uninstallation would likely destroy the system.
v2:
- remove bashisms
- add various forgotten symlinks and fix service/timer/target confusions
