Merge downstream buildsystem

[p01arst0rm]

Not sure of the best way to contact project mods, so posting here.
There is a downstream fork of LucenePlusPlus that replaces the cmake
build system with a meson one, which makes building the source far
easy on non-linux systems. It also has a couple source tweaks to improve
readability.

Would you be interested in merging it once the port is complete?

Interesting.

If possible, I'd like to keep CMake because so many build systems/distributions depend on it. Is it possible to support both?

yep; its perfectly possible to have both buildsystems in the build directory.

if you want an example of a dual build system project, look up mesa3d/waffle

@alanw the fork now contains a completely rebuilt cmake buildsystem prototype (missing doxygen & config files atm). If youre intreseted, ill finish it up :)
