[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t 1/5] meson/cc: Disable memory-allocating builtins

Disable the memory allocating builtins as they may cause unexpected behavior
with our framework. They *may* get optimized out in favor of a register or
stack variable, making them effectively local.

Local variables do not play well with longjmp, which we use for fixtures
and subtests.
