Change the editable install build directory to a subdirectory named after the ABI tag for the target Python interpreter placed in the ``build`` directory in the project source directory. Add .gitignode and .hgignore files with catch all glob patterns to the ``build`` directory, if it is empty, to have the major VCS systems ignore it. Fixes mesonbuild#370, mesonbuild#380.

Change the editable install build directory to a subdirectory named after the ABI tag for the target Python interpreter placed in the

This implements what has been discussed in #370. I decided to add a subdirectory named as the Python ABI tag as including the platform tag does not seem very useful. I went with
buildas that seems to be where the consensus seemed to be. I'm not very attached to this choice.
