As preparation to switch to Meson there are some things that needs be
cleaned up to make the conversion easier.

The important thing in Meson is that there is a strict separation
between source and build directory and the distributed tarball by
default contains only files tracked by git with a possibility to
write a script which would add some other sources into the tarball.

Regardless of the adoption of Meson these patches improve our current
build system to fully support VPATH builds.

Changes in v2:
    - some patches from v1 are pushed now
    - added a patch to mandate build dir != src dir
    - added a patch to cleanup .gitignore
    - added patches to fix sc_po_check
    - improved some patches from v1

Changes in v3:
    - python-zanata-client is the tool our Makefile uses

Pavel Hrdina (20):
  build: mandate use of a build dir != src dir
  .gitignore: cleanup old and obsolete ignores
  syntax-check.mk: fix sc_po_check rule
  syntax-check.mk: cleanup sc_po_check dependencies
  syntax-check.mk: cleanup generated_files list for sc_po_check
  po: generate files into build directory
  po: rewrite the way how we generate files
  po: README.md: add a note about which Zanata client is required
  remote: unify rpc server dispatch generated files
  src: generate source files into build directory
  src: access: generate source files into build directory
  src: admin: generate source files into build directory
  src: esx: generate source files into build directory
  src: hyperv: generate source files into build directory
  src: locking: generate source files into build directory
  src: logging: generate source files into build directory
  src: lxc: generate source files into build directory
  src: remote: generate source files into build directory
  src: stop distributing generated source files
  tools: stop distributing generated source files

For some reason it's the first patch that changes rpm build to use vpath
build, I'm looking into it as well.
