[gtk+/wip/meson] build: Use the appropriate linker flags

[Emmanuele Bassi <ebassi src gnome org>]

commit 4faee311078a5c20794cd0601c0fdbc86f3c354c
Author: Emmanuele Bassi <ebassi gnome org>
Date:   Tue Apr 18 14:51:25 2017 +0100

    build: Use the appropriate linker flags
    
    We need to check if the linker flags we use are available, depending on
    the platform, and we need to ensure that the shared library is
    versioned appropriately.
