dependencies: Add function to strip system -L paths

PkgConfig automatically removes -L paths from libdirs if the -L points
to a system path. It knows what these paths are by taking this as a
configure option at build time, which the distro maintainers set
appropriately and everything works. This allows one to have two
versions of a package installed, a system and non system, and then
override PKG_CONFIG_PATH to use the non system version, and everything
just works. For non-pkgconfig dependencies (such as LLVM) meson needs to
strip these themselves to avoid breaking the above use case.
