Attachment: Bug 1834678 - Upgrade meson to 1.1.0.

The old version that is currently used doesn't support lld for mac, and
tries to pass it flags for BFD ld (e.g. --as-needed).

For some reason meson checks fail because of some CFLAGS not being used
during the checks being reported as an error, so we make those errors
quiet.

Attachment: Bug 1834678 - Change the llvm-config trick for cross-compilation.

Contrary to ld64, lld doesn't ignore libraries it's given on the command
line, and -lLLVM-14 ends up as a link error when using lld.

So instead of relying on the flags llvm-config outputs to be kind of
ignored, we replace them at the source by wrapping llvm-config itself.

Using lld fails to link with anything below 10.8 because of a bug, and
10.12 is what Firefox uses.

Attachment: Bug 1834678 - Fix pkg-config call in wrench mac script.

Not that it matters, because there aren't any pkg-config in the macos
SDK anyways, but for purity's sake, while we're in the vicinity.
