docs/interop: Convert qemu-qmp-ref to rST

Convert qemu-qmp-ref to rST format. This includes dropping
the plain-text, pdf and info format outputs for this document;
as with all our other Sphinx-based documentation, we provide
HTML and manpage only.

The qemu-qmp-ref.rst is somewhat more stripped down than
the .texi was, because we do not (currently) attempt to
generate indexes for the commands, events and data types
being documented.

Again, we drop the direct link from index.html.in now that
the QMP ref is part of the interop manual.

This commit removes the code from the root meson.build file that
handled the various Texinfo-based outputs, because we no longer
generate any documentation except for the Sphinx HTML manuals and the
manpages, and the code can't handle having an empty list of files
to process.. We'll do further cleanup of the remainders of
Texinfo support in subsequent commits.

libqemuutil, qapi, trace: convert to meson

This shows how to do some "computations" in meson.build using its array
and dictionary data structures, and also a basic usage of the sourceset
module for conditional compilation.

Notice the new "if have_system" part of util/meson.build, which fixes
a bug in the old build system was buggy: util/dbus.c was built even for
non-softmmu builds, but the dependency on -lgio was lost when the linking
was done through libqemuutil.a. Because all of its users required gio
otherwise, the bug was hidden. Meson instead propagates libqemuutil's
dependencies down to its users, and shows the problem.
