With the transition to meson, what is the best way to provide custom values
to parameters in rte_config.h?  When using makefiles, (from memory, I
think) we used common_base as a template that was copied in as a
replacement for defconfig_x86....  Our current thinking is to apply a
locally maintained patch so that we can track custom values easier to the
rte_config.h file unless there is another way to pass in an overridden
value.  As an example, one of the values we are customizing is
IP_FRAG_MAX_FRAG.

Cheers,
