I don't believe that commit made a difference. Prior to that commit,
libvirt would always add Werror if biulding from git, even if meson
had already added Werror, causing a warning from meson.

Now we only add Werror if building from git and meson has not already
added Werror itself.

Normally -Dwerror=false would be sufficient for building from the
tarball, but in the RPM we're using git to manage patches, so we
need both options:

   -Dwerror=false -Dgit_werror=disabled
