c456e38264 server/meson.build: support relative path for prebuilt_server
If we don't do this trick, the prebuilt_server will be
../server/[the_user_defined_path]. In general, we will not give an relative path
based on build directory, which leads to wrong prebuilt_server path.

The building error:

ninja: error: '../scrcpy-server-v1.7.jar', needed by
'server/scrcpy-server.jar', missing and no known rule to make it

07983d914f Accept prebuilt server
Expose a 'prebuilt_server' option to pass the path of the prebuilt
binary, so that the build does not require Android SDK.

Usage:

    meson builddir -Dprebuilt_server=/tmp/my_prebuilt_server.jar

4c49b27e9f Always invoke gradle except as root
The custom target used to invoke Gradle from Meson should always
be built, otherwise, the server would not be rebuilt on source changes.

However, when enabling "build_always", gradle is invoked as root on
"sudo ninja install" after "ninja", so it downloads the whole Gradle
world into /root/.gradle.

To avoid the problem, just do not call gradle if the effective user id
is 0.

ff94462d8a Refactor build system
The client was built with Meson, the server with Gradle, and were run by
a Makefile.

Add a Meson script for the server (which delegates to Gradle), and a
parent script to build and install both the client and the server to the
system, typically with:

    meson --buildtype release build
    cd build
    ninja
    sudo ninja install

In addition, use a separate Makefile to build a "portable" version of
the application (where the client expects the server to be in the
current directory). Typically:

    make release-portable
    cd dist/scrcpy
    ./scrcpy

This is especially useful for Windows builds, which are not "installed".
