Limit the resources Bazel is allowed to use during the build to 1/2 the
available RAM and 3/4 the available CPU cores. This should help avoid
overwhelming the build machine.
Meson allows projects to set `build_rpath` property, containing paths
that will be added during build but will be removed when installing.
When Meson removes build_rpath from `DT_RUNPATH` entry, it just writes
the shorter ␀-terminated new rpath over the old one to reduce
the risk of potentially breaking the ELF files
(when the linker does string de-duplication or something).
But this can cause much bigger problem for Nix, as it can produce
cut-in-half-by-␀ store path references.
For example, in systemd’s libudev, it was removing three `$ORIGIN`-relative paths from
$ORIGIN/../libsystemd:$ORIGIN/../basic:$ORIGIN/../shared:…␀
resulting in the following `DT_RUNPATH` entry:
…␀store/v589pqjhvxrj73g3r0xb41yr84z5pwb7-gcc-9.3.0-lib/lib␀
We previously handled this in `fix-rpath.patch` but the method we prevent
Meson from removing paths added to rpath through `NIX_LDFLAGS` was changed
during 0.55.0 update and I forgot about this second purpose of the patch.
Let’s re-add this clearing code, as it worked without issues for a long time.

Preserving existing behavior: the bash completion was not executable,
the zsh completion was; according to lukegb the fish completion does
not have to be executable.
