Subject: [PATCH] build(meson): add support for libomemo-c as OMEMO backend

Add the ability to choose between libsignal-protocol-c (default)
and libomemo-c when building with OMEMO support enabled in Meson.

+### Selecting OMEMO Backend
+When building with OMEMO support enabled in Meson, you can choose between two backend libraries:
+- `libsignal`: The default backend using `libsignal-protocol-c`.
+- `libomemo-c`: An alternative backend using `libomemo-c`.
+
+Example of choosing the `libomemo-c` backend:
+```bash
+meson setup build_run -Domemo=enabled -Domemo-backend=libomemo-c
+```
+
 ### Using Autotools
 1. Generate configuration files: `./bootstrap.sh`
 2. Configure: `./configure --enable-otr --enable-omemo`
