Petr Štetiar eb6939fdeb lxc: fix huge binary sizes by backporting upstream Meson dynlink fixes
LXC after the switch to the Meson build system increased the binary sizes
significantly as each binary is basically static so shipping complete
liblxc which should be linked dynamically.

Upstream later fixed it with series of 10 commits and this fixes are
available in LXC release v6.0.0. Since we can't upstep to that release,
lets fix it by backporting those fixes only, basically making libxlc a
shared library again.

Subject: [PATCH] meson: introduce IN_LIBLXC preprocessor macro
The purpose of it is to tell us if we are compiling
liblxc or lxc test/tool/command.
This thing is needed to exclude unnecessary functions
from being compiled-in in the resulting executables
like lxc-start, lxc-attach, etc.
The problem is that lxc tools (lxc-start, lxc-stop, etc)
depend not only on the liblxc as a shared library, but also
require some non-exported symbols or helpers from liblxc
internals. So, we have to link these executables with some liblxc
object files directly which results in the dependency hell,
because linking one .c file from liblxc may end up having to
link with another one (what contains some dependency) and so on.
By using IN_LIBLXC in the liblxc internals we can selectively
omit some functions from being compiled in such cases.
