In out autotools build we check for all kinds of curses and their
support for wide character.
Let's focus on more modern systems until someone complains.
For autotools this was added in:

Regarding:
https://github.com/profanity-im/profanity/issues/1334
I think libstrophe is rather common now and should be treated
like all the other dependencies anyways.
So I'll remove this from the meson files at least. Since my
goal is to have a cleaner build system.
In autotools we had `package_status` which we set to either
`release` or `development`.
When converting from autotools to meson we used that mechanism
as well. But actually meson has a default way of handling this
with the option `buildtype`.
The following values are possible:
debug, debugoptimized, release, plain
So our `package_status = development` will now be
`if get_option('buildtype') == 'debug' or get_option('buildtype') ==
'debugoptimized'`. Probably we could also use
`if get_option('buildtype') == 'release'. But like this the
`plain` will be really plain.
Usage:
```
meson setup build --buildtype=debug
meson compile -C build
```
