Description

I love how Meson straightly considers IDEs and provides mesonintrospect!

Still, shouldn't "mesonintrospect --target-files" also list preprocessed files? I definitely want resource files, forms and headers to show up in my IDE.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the mesonintrospect code in the Meson source and find where target files are listed, then add preprocessed files like .ui, .qrc, .h.
