Niels Lohmann 9cbe62efb0 Fix the Meson CMake target for includedir or datadir outside the prefix
nlohmann_jsonTargets.cmake always prepended the prefix computed from the
file's location to includedir. With an absolute includedir outside the
prefix (as Nix passes for packages with a separate dev output), this gave
"<prefix>//abs/include"; with an absolute datadir outside the prefix, the
number of ".." was derived from the absolute path and the prefix resolved
to "/". In both cases find_package(nlohmann_json) failed with "Imported
target includes non-existent path". Use the absolute include directory in
these cases, as CMake's install(EXPORT) does, and check it in CI.
