fix find_library when cross-compiling 32-bit on 64-bit systems
When find_library is used to find dependencies, meson checks all paths for libraries with all prefixes that could match. This means that when we are compiling with -m32 on a 64-bit system, meson will find 64-bit libraries and assumes that they will work. Naturally that is not the case. The obvious fix is to do a test link against those libraries, but the extra wrinkle here is that we need to do a "whole link" so as to test the static libs. A check with gcc+ld on linux shows that unless there are unresolved symbols from the main.c file, the static library is never checked so we avoid the error from an incompatible library.
