For historic reasons the localedir directory is where binary locales are stored
(/usr/lib/locale) , not where application translations belong (typically,
/usr/share/locale).  Don't pass localedir explicitly, and let Meson use the
default of $datadir/locale to match the behaviour of autotools.bbclass and the
expectations of the system.

Maybe we should think about renaming that variable for clarity.

Yes.  Not sure what to though.
