While detecting a presence of a function via 'cc.links()' gives desired result (i.e. detects whether function is present), it also produces a warning on systems where the function is not present (into meson-log.txt), e.g.:
qemu.git/build/meson-private/tmph74x3p38/testfile.c:2:34: \ warning: implicit declaration of function 'malloc_trim' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] We can check whether given function exists via 'cc.has_function()' or whether STATX_* macros exist via 'cc.has_header_symbol()'.
