[feature request] Way to define C macro across msvc and gcc like cmake
See original GitHub issuecmake has COMPILE_DEFINITIONS which used to set to a list of preprocessor definitions using the syntax VAR or VAR=value.
I know I could do the same thing with c_args: [ '-DFOO=bar' ] on gcc/clang or c_args: [ '/DFOO=bar' ] on msvc.
But I have to check compiler for each macro define site.

Meson automatically converts UNIX style (gcc/clang) compiler options to the MSVC equivalent when required. You should always only put UNIX style flags into your
meson.buildand Meson will take care of the rest. Note that MSVC also understands the-DFOO=barsyntax without problems, so meson might not do anything in this instance.This already works as is, so, closing.
