Some distros, notably Fedora, want to install non-core Perl libraries
into specific directory, namely /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl.
The Makefile build system allows this by overriding perllibdir variable,
let's make meson works on par with our Makefile.

The image pointed to by the fedora:latest tag has moved from fedora
41 to 42. The fedora 41 container images have awk installed while
the fedora 42 images do not. That change is most likely just part
of reducing the size of the base container images.
In both AlmaLinux and Fedora (as well as other RHEL
derivatives/relatives), awk is provided by the gawk package.
On Fedora, `dnf install awk` would work, by using the package
filelist data to determine that /usr/bin/awk is provided by gawk and
installs gawk as a result.
On AlmaLinux (8 & 9, by quick testing by Todd), that is not the case
and you'd need to use `dnf install gawk` or `dnf install '*bin/awk'`
to get it installed. Having said that, awk _is_ included in the
current AlmaLinux 8 and 9 images, so it isn't strictly needed. But
it's probably better to be explicit that we need it installed, as a
defense against some future change to the AlmaLinux container
removing awk.
Because we know that on both of these distros, our scripts that call
for 'awk' had been using 'gawk' that was installed as part of the
base image, let's make sure that we explicitly install 'gawk'. If
the image already has it, it would be a no-op that does not cause
breakage.

In 7b31b55db1 (perf: amend the grep tests to test grep.threads,
2017-12-29), p7821 was tweaked to test the performance of 'git grep'
under different number of threads. These tests are run if
GIT_PERF_GREP_THREADS is set to a list of thread numbers, but the
comment at the top of the file instead mentions GIT_PERF_7821_THREADS.

The processing of triple dot notation is tricky because it can be

- Switch the synopsis to a synopsis block which will automatically
format placeholders in italics and keywords in monospace
- Use _<placeholder>_ instead of <placeholder> in the description
- Use `backticks` for keywords and more complex option
descriptions. The new rendering engine will apply synopsis rules to
these spans.
Unfortunately, there's an inconsistency in the synopsis style, where
the ellipsis is used to indicate that the option can be repeated, but
it can also be used in Git's three-dot notation to indicate a range of
commits. The rendering engine will not be able to distinguish
between these two cases.
