142571d0b8 build: Collect gi-docgen's common arguments
And only enable `--fatal-warnings` if `-Dwerror` has been set, just like
we do for the introspection data generation.

99c7ba7840 Install documentation in the appropriate place
We're already installing each reference into its own namespaced
directory, so we don't need to add further path elements.

Additionally, with the changes in:

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/devhelp/-/merge_requests/20
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gi-docgen/-/merge_requests/54

we can browse the GTK API references in DevHelp.

0ba2a3a191 Generate GTK API reference(s) with gi-docgen
Stop using gtk-doc, and switch to gi-docgen.

The gi-docgen tool generates API references through the introspection
data, which has various benefits:

 - it does not parse C code
 - it does not generate and run C code to introspect types at build time
 - it does not present a different API from the one we're exporting

Additionally, gi-docgen:

 - does not generate DocBook XML in order to generate HTML
 - does not go through xsltproc
 - parses proper Markdown

Which makes it markedly faster than gtk-doc has ever been.

91c8f6b7df build: Try to fix docs+subprojects
Apparently, subprojects don't have pkgconfig variables :(

103080c384 build: Remove an unneeded version check
We are requiring a newer meson than we were checking
for here.

a8eae7afaa build: Move the gtk-doc dep to the toplevel
We want to include the gtk-doc subproject in release
tarballs, using --include-subprojects, but that only
works if we've actually built the subproject. And
enabling gtk-doc for dist builds is problematic -
it tends to break meson dist.

So declare the gtk-doc dependency independent of
-Dgtk_doc, and use --force-fallback-for for it.

This adds dependencies that would otherwise be unnecessary.

1205f74106 Always use gtk-doc as a subproject for now
We need the support for actions syntax, among
other things.

058f82d03d Add gtk-doc as a subproject
We rely on a specific minimum version of gtk-doc to be able to build the
GTK API reference for the new API. In order to be able to use gtk-doc as
a subproject, though, we need to use a recent version of Meson.

4eaf860e86 meson: Rename documentation option to gtk_doc
This name is what most of the stack is using.
Lets follow along, even though it is (imo)
uglier.

758830e7c3 meson: allow building man pages without the documentation
The 'documentation' option also guarded the man page build. Instead
if skipping the whole docs subdir skip the specific gtkdoc calls, so that the
man page build still works.

This brings it in line with the gtk3 meson build.
