With a 5.2-or-later QEMU (one using meson to build) then running
configure/make in the source tree actually creates a build directory
named "build" and uses that. But it's definitely clearer to explicitly
create a build directory and run configure from that directory:
the only supported thing is running both configure and make in
the same place.

"completely clean everything out and rerun from the beginning"
seems like a good check to make, certainly.
