Meson build: Set default value of the 'warnings' option to 'min'

* MSVC_NMake/meson.build: Copy sigc++config.h with configure_file().
* Makefile.am: Remove tools/dist-cmd.py.
* docs/manual/meson.build:
* docs/reference/meson.build: Don't use tools/dist-cmd.py.
* sigc++/meson.build: Don't use tools/dist-cmd.py.
* meson.build: Use dist-warnings when a tarball is tested by
'ninja dist' or 'meson dist'. Check if doc-reference.py exists, if not
maintainer-mode. Add a better error message if mm-common-get is required
but not found.
* meson_options.txt: Set default value of the 'warnings' to 'min'.
Add 'dist-warnings' with default value 'fatal'.
* tools/dist-cmd.py: Removed file. It's not necessary in add_dist_script()
when the first parameter is python3.path().
