[amyspark]

Hi all,

This MR fixes an issue we observed in GStreamer when linking for Android x86:

ld.lld: error: too many errors emitted, stopping now (use -error-limit=0 to see all errors)
clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

The fix is to extend #2611 to the Meson build system, and I added (as a failsafe) the two linker flags that x264 already uses to work around the same issue.

All feedback is appreciated.

From an OpenBSD perspective this looks pretty important.
