I took a quick look at "meson" but got confused after it referred to something else called "ninja". So it appears to be some high level thing producing other lowlevel things which then do stuff. I am not aware of any developer actively working on support for this, so a patch would be greatly appreciated. At least there are no plans to *not* support it. One nuisance is that it appears to mandate Python 3 while OpenWrt buildroot currently requires Python 2.7 - so in order to avoid depending on both versions, all the existing buildroot python users probably need to be ported to Python 3 first.
