Re: [PATCH] meson: disable bogus warnings from sanitizers on Fedora

When building with sanitizers on Fedora we get a wierd error

The docs for -Warray-bounds say that a value of "2" is known to be liable to generate false positives. Rather than downgrade the check everywhere, we do it selectively for sanitizers.
