bootstrap: Install meson only if the python3 variant is active (1.10 KB, patch)

It's currently completely unused except for the Pitivi builds (which depend on gst-transcoder). We should not unconditionally depend on it as it apparently causes problems, and on Windows and OSX we would require people to install Python 2 and 3 manually now (while before it was only 2).

I will install it only if the python3 variant is enabled then.
