Upgrade meson version?

Hi everyone,

Building LibreOffice on macOS Tahoe public beta and Xcode 26 beta works and it runs.

However, the meson version in LODE breaks the build so I had to use meson 1.8.3. I don’t have commit access to LODE but I did do completely clean git clone and builds of both LODE and LibreOffice master on macOS Sequoia and Tahoe with the following patch:

diff --git a/bin/utils_MacOSX.sh b/bin/utils_MacOSX.sh
index 370543d..c23ef9c 100644
--- a/bin/utils_MacOSX.sh
+++ b/bin/utils_MacOSX.sh

     fi
     if [ -z "$inst" -o "$(compare_version "$version" "1.6.0")" = "-1" ] ; then
-        install_meson "1.7.2" "https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/releases/download/1.7.2/" "meson-1.7.2.tar.gz"
+        install_meson "1.8.3" "https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/releases/download/1.8.3/" "meson-1.8.3.tar.gz"
     fi
     # meson requires pkg-config – pkgconf is compatible and easier to build/deploy
     # we only want our custom one to not run the risk of picking up stuff from brew/macports/….

Can anyone review and commit the above if it looks OK?
