Why is this needed?  AFAIK, meson supports
-Db_sanitize=undefined,address,... so what do we gain by this?

Especially since for ubsan and asan, -fno-omit-frame-pointer is needed
for useful backtraces (which the meson module does for us).  This
support has been in since 2017, afaict.

> +The Undefined Behavior Sanitizer - UBSan
> +=======================================+
> +UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer (UBSan) is a runtime undefined behavior detector.
> +UBSan uses compile-time instrumentation and modifies the program by adding
> +some stubs which perform certain checks before operations that might cause
> +undefined behaviour. If some UB detected, respective _UBSan_handle_* handlers
> +(which are defined in libUBSan library) are called to prints the error message.
> +
> +Some examples of undefined behaviour checks:
> +
> +* Misaligned memory access
> +* Signed integer overflow
> +* Load from/store to an object with insufficient space.
> +* Integer divide by zero as well as INT_MIN / -1 division
> +* Out-of-bounds memory accesses.
> +* Null argument declared with nonnull attribute, returned null from function
> +  which never returns null, null ptr dereference
> +* Variable size array with non-positive length
> +
> +GCC supports this feature since 4.9, however GCC 5.0 onwards has many more
> +checkers implemented.
