Does it have to be a separate script, or can we just write inline
Python in the meson file? The main reason the current code is
written in shell is because that's what you need to write it in
so you can write it inline in a Makefile, and because half of
it is "invoke this other command ($(SIGNCODE), makensis, etc)",
which is what build systems are good at.
