Subject: [PATCH] Add syntax highlighting for meson build system (#3236)

* Add syntax highlighting for meson build system

It is basically a port of upstream syntax highlighting for vim,
but a bit less noisy (e.g numbers are not colored).

* meson.yaml: fix meson_options.txt detection

* meson.yaml: remove empty rules

* meson.yaml: add highlighting for operators and brackets

* meson.yaml: rearrange the keywords to be in alphabetical order

* meson.yaml: add highlighting for numbers
