Jiri Denemark 36b47ffed9 meson: Fix build with -Dtest_coverage=true 
As can be seen in commit 8a62a1592a (from
autoconf era), the coverage flags have to be used also when linking
objects. However, this was not reflected when we switched to meson.

Without this patch linking fails with undefined references to various
__gcov_* symbols.

=====
About
=====

This is the project of Google Summer of Code 2013 accepted by QEMU.org and
libvirt community.  The goal of this project is, provide Wireshark dissector for
Libvirt RPC protocol. It will provide Libvirt packet overview/detail analysing
in Wireshark. Furthermore, it will be able to build(generated) from RPC protocol
definition placed in Libvirt source tree to support latest protocol
specification.

Installation
=============

Run ``./configure`` with ``--with-wireshark-dissector`` option enabled.
Then dissector will compiled with libvirt itself.

Add/Remove protocol from dissector's support
--------------------------------------------

Modify variable ``WS_DISSECTOR_PROTO_FILES``
in ``tools/wireshark/src/Makefile.am``.

Changing installation directory
-------------------------------

You can change installation directory of pluggable shared
object(``libvirt.so``) by specifying ``--with-ws-plugindir=<path>``.

You can install ``libvirt.so`` into your local wireshark plugin directory:

::

  $ ./configure --with-wireshark-dissector \
                --with-ws-plugindir=$HOME/.wireshark/plugins
