This will be needed as soon as config-poison.h moves from configure to
a meson custom_target (which is built at "ninja" time).

This adds an implementation of a simple L2 configuration, in which a
unified L2 cache (stores both blocks of instructions and data) is
maintained for each core separately, with no inter-core interaction
taken in account. The L2 cache is used as a backup for L1 and is only
accessed if the wanted block does not exist in L1.
In terms of multi-threaded user-space emulation, the same approximation
of L1 is done, a static number of caches is maintained, and each and
every memory access initiated by a thread will have to go through one of
the available caches.
An atomic increment is used to maintain the number of L2 misses per
instruction.
The default cache parameters of L2 caches is:
2MB cache size
16-way associativity
64-byte blocks

The GBM library detection does not need to be in the configure script,
since it does not have any user-facing options (there are no
--enable-gbm or --disable-gbm switches). Let's move it to meson.build
instead, so we don't have to clutter config-host.mak with the related
switches.
Additionally, only check for GBM if it is really required, i.e. if we
either compile with OpenGL or with virglrenderer support.

Parsing boolean arguments correctly (e.g. pattern=on or source=false).
Introduced a new "track" argument that takes a [read|write] value. This
substitutes passing read or write to "arg=" that is deprecated.
Also, matches are now taken one by one through the "match" argument.

Since plugin arguments now expect boolean arguments, a plugin argument
name "sortby" now expects a value of "read", "write", or "address".
"io" arg is now expected to be passed as a full-form boolean parameter,
i.e. "io=on|true|yes|off|false|no"

Multicore L1 cache modelling is introduced and is supported for both
full system emulation and linux-user.
For full-system emulation, L1 icache and dcache are maintained for each
available core, since this information is exposed to the plugin through
`qemu_plugin_n_vcpus()`.
For linux-user, a static number of cores is assumed (default 1 core, and
can be provided as a plugin argument `cores=N`). Every memory access
goes through one of these caches, this approach is taken as it's
somewhat akin to what happens on real setup, where a program that
dispatches more threads than the available cores, they'll thrash
each other
