fix(FTBFS): meson: raise C++ standard to C++17

LLVM 16 requires this since [0] and instead of just going all over the
various directories and adding overrides it should be easier to just
raise this globally. GCC supports C++17 since GCC 8 (2018), Clang since
version 5 (2017). Debian Buster (oldstable) has GCC 8.3 and Clang 7.0,
so all major distributions should have this and there shouldn't be an
issue with bumping.
