tests: Use meson to enumerate the tests - #6619

This gets rid of the test-matrix generation, and instead enumerates all the tests in meson. Some people (including me) constantly modified the generated meson instead of the test-matrix generator file because they find it so uncommon and unusual that a meson file is generated. This looses the combinatorial combination of the generated system, but in practice, six lines of enumeration is not bad, and it makes things easier to understand.
