The "plan" is "when I get around to it"

Thanks for the reminder, though. It seems I overlooked meson 1.3.x, so 
I've updated the package today.

(I don't usually package 1.n.x until 1.n+1.0 is available, because 
historically .0 releases of meson have had a high chance of containing 
regressions, although things are better these days...)
