[balsa] meson.build: Do not enter endless loop

[Peter Bloomfield <peterb src gnome org>]

commit 616c9b89888a7353d9501abc364fd42f567a6280
Author: Peter Bloomfield <PeterBloomfield bellsouth net>
Date:   Wed Nov 13 17:51:34 2019 -0500

    meson.build: Do not enter endless loop
    
    * meson.build:  With meson version 0.52,
      "run_command('rm', '-f', conftest_htm)" makes ninja go into
      an endless loop, so we'll skip it, and just leave conftest.htm
      in the current build dir.
