This allows building and installing only the documentation, without
recompiling the whole project, using:
meson build -Denable_docs=true
meson compile -C build doc
meson install -C build --no-rebuild --tags doc
In Debian/Ubuntu the documentation is built separately from the binaries,
in a separate architecture-independent build job, so that it has to be
done only once, instead of once per supported architecture.

This requires meson 0.60, so there's a warning printed as the minimum
defined is 0.57, but it's harmless, and the feature is only used when
explicitly invoked with --tags, which simply has to be done with newer
meson versions. If install --tags is not used, then there's no issue.
