Porting LV2 to Android: The Woes of Meson

 So I am beginning the journey of porting LV2 plugins to Android (for my app Amp Rack, among other things). LV2 is the successor to LADSPA, and there are quite a few (!) very high quality plugins coded using the LV2 specification. 

The very first roadblock that I've faced is that lilv and it's associated official™ libraries use the Meson build system. However, Meson doesn't compile for Android. So, I have to find some other way to build lilv, or deal with lv2 plugins directly.

First I will try and make lilv build for Android, as that seems like the way to go for now.

Face your fears, stand tall, learn to bear Your crown of thorns; learn to hold it dear! I took one last deep breath, and held my head up high Stared into the eyes of...
