    meson: Add option to export symbols on MSVC-style builds
    
    This adds an option that is enabled by default so that we can make Visual
    Studio-style builds (which also includes clang-cl) export symbols from the
    libgd copy that we incorporate into various things that we build or when
    libgd is built standalone as a shared library.  Items such as gedit relies on
    items in its included libgd parts to be exported in order to function
    correctly.
    
    This commit is the first part that adds a compiler macro which will activate
    parts of the code so that symbols will be built with the needed symbols marked
    for export, which will be in the subsequent commit(s).
