	When arrays were added they were called arrays. Because the are implemented with Python lists, that language started leaking into talking about Meson types. This is confusing. I've attempted, as much as possible, to move to using one name, array. I picked array because 1) It's the original name used, and 2) what Meson has are more properly arrays as they have a fixed length, while a critical property of lists are the ability to link and unlink them. There are a couple of places where the list language has leaked into the names of keyword arguments. I have not made any attempt to change those, I don't know if it's that useful or not.
2023-10-09	interpreter: add <lang>_(static\|shared)_args	Dylan Baker
	Which allow passing arguments specifically to the static or shared libraries. For design, this is all handled in the interpreter, by the build layer the arguments are combined into the existing fields. This limits changes required in the mid and backend layers
2023-09-19	Rust: Replace rust_crate_type with rust_abi	Xavier Claessens
	Meson already knows if it's a shared or static library, user only need to specify the ABI (Rust or C).
