The installation documentation stated that using Meson is
experimental. But since this is the only way to build using Visual
Studio on Windows, this would imply that that whole build procedure is
experimental, which isn't true. So qualify this statement a bit more.
We keep the statement that Meson is experimental on other platforms,
since it doesn't have full, confirmed feature parity with the make
build system.
