Allow Strawberry Perl on Windows with Meson >= 0.60.0

Meson now explicitly blacklists pkg-config.bat from Strawberry Perl and
thus building GStreamer on Windows has been fixed.

This allows for instance to build GStreamer on GitHub Action Windows
runners that have Strawberry Perl by default.

It is also useful when needing to build OpenSSL on the same Windows
machine because it requires Perl.
