I didn't mean to imply it was difficult -- just that there are multiple
hosts with instructions and I don't think anyone of us is going to sit down
and run through Mint, Cygwin, Msys2, Raspbian, etc just.to write a
documentation patch. :)

This is going to linger. Perhaps I can add some boilerplate that Qemu
requires Meson and Ninja to those hosts with no mention of it.
