Now that the build is done entirely by Meson, there is no need
to keep the Makefile conversion. Instead, we can ask Ninja about
the targets it exposes and forward them.
The main advantages are, from smallest to largest:
- reducing the possible namespace pollution within the Makefile
- removal of a relatively large Python program
- faster build because parsing Makefile.ninja is slower than
parsing build.ninja; and faster build after Meson runs because
we do not have to generate Makefile.ninja.
- tracking of command lines, which provides more accurate rebuilds
In addition the change removes the requirement for GNU make 3.82, which
was annoying on Mac, and avoids bugs on Windows due to ninjatool not
knowing how to convert Windows escapes to POSIX escapes.

Remove from check-block the requirement that all TARGET_DIRS are built.

Use pattern rules to clarify which targets are going to match the
rule and to provide clearer error messages.

We have an exploding complexity problem in the testing so lets just
move the more involved plugins into contrib. tests/plugins still exist
for the basic plugins that exercise the API. We restore the old
pre-meson style Makefile for contrib as it also doubles as a guide for
out-of-tree plugin builds.
While we are at it add some examples to the documentation and a
specific plugins build target.

Makefile.objs, the .d files and various CONFIG_* symbols are not
used anymore by the Make side of the build; they are only processed
by Meson. We can delete them.

check-block has its own test harness, unlike every other test. If
we capture its output, as is in general nicer to do without V=1,
there will be no sign of progress. So for lack of a better option
just move the invocation of the test back to Makefile rules.
As a side effect, this will also fix "make check" in --disable-tools
builds, as they were trying to run qemu-iotests without having
made qemu-img before.

The binaries move to the root directory, e.g. qemu-system-i386 or
qemu-arm. This requires changes to qtests, CI, etc.
