Looks good to me.
If we ever find any reason to support non-boolean options, we can
figure out a third/fourth argument for it, or new function, or just
using usex or whatnot in the ebuilds. Unless we want to have this
boolean one named as meson_bool or whatnot. But this is the most common
one, so in line with others as "meson_use" sounds best to me.

Unlike in cmake, where the define key and USE flag name practically
never line up, with meson they most often do, and there will be no
capitalization tries and whatnot that the cmake stuff did.
