  Introduce minimum changes to the build system to allow use of the MSVC
compiler.

This change is intended to enable a phased approach to allowing DPDK to
built with MSVC. Building with MSVC removes barriers to enterprise
customers use of DPDK who have constraints around security policy,
compliance and functional requirements.

Tyler Retzlaff (3):
  build: unblock the use of the MSVC compiler
  build: determine execution environment at config time
  build: limit what is built when using MSVC compiler

oops, failed to update the cover letter.

v2:
  * moved checks to skip drivers, apps, usertools directories
    in to <dir>/meson.build file and removed conditional
    check from root meson.build (patch 3/3).
