[PATCH xserver] meson: Don't use '' in link_with, ever

[Lyude Paul]

String arguments as elements in the array passed to the link_with
argument in meson's executable() functions are not valid and will end up
causing the build file generation to file. This actually ended up
exposing a bug in meson that caused it not to report where in the
meson.build file it was failing:

https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/2527

The proper way to have a variable that can contain either an empty link
target or an actual link target is:

some_target = []
if some_cond
    some_target = static_library(...)
endif

This way if some_cond is False, some_target gets set to [], gets passed
to executable() in the link_with array, and then gets removed by array
flattening.

This also unbreaks Xwayland builds with -Dglx=false, the thing that
originally made me notice this.
