This update fixes a [bug](https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/5268) in

the Meson build system which caused binaries and libraries to incorrectly be

marking as requiring an executable stack. This makes them more vulnerable to

security issues, and also can result in errors caused by SELinux denials. This

update also provides rebuilds of all the packages that were built with the buggy

Meson, excepting packages for updates were already pending (in those cases,

those updates have been edited instead).
