描述

Describe the bug Meson build directories may be in-tree instead of in some XDG cache folder, so it is useful to mark the build directory as being cache so that backup applications can ignore it, wherever the build directory might lie. This is what the very simple CACHEDIR.TAG specification describes. It is for example used by Rust and supported by Pika Backup and Deja Dup.

研究方向
Implement a function to create a CACHEDIR.TAG file in the build directory during its creation, following the specification at https://bford.info/cachedir/. Modify the relevant meson source file (likely mesonbuild/coredata.py or mesonbuild/environment.py) to call this function after the build directory is set up. Ensure the file is not removed by meson's clean command. Review existing comments for any additional requirements.
