[PATCH] meson.build: Add --enable-pdb option

This option will (attempt to) modify the QEMU compile and link flags to emit
PDB symbol files rather than the standard (DWARF?) symbol output from gcc/clang.
Prerequisites for this are host_os == Windows and --enable-debug flag set.

This enables using native Windows debug tools (Windbg/Visual Studio) for
debugging QEMU.
