This helper is a shell function transcript of its original GitLab CI
counterpart. There's one notable difference such that we pass '-j1' to
the meson compile command otherwise we'd have to execute the 'run_build'
function twice, passing 'libvirt-pot-dep' and 'libvirt-pot' targets
in a serial manner.
