Older gcc versions (4.x) require passing --std=c99 compiler flag to
prevent warnings from being emitted. Instead of setting it for each
dependency, it's easier to just pass the CMAKE_C_STANDARD flag to all
dependencies. This also prevents the scenario of us forgetting to set it
if we add new dependencies.
Also remove Libvterm-tbl2inc_c.cmake as it's not required. It's used to
generate files that are already provided by the Libvterm project by
default. It's also not really something we need to concern ourselves
with as it's more of an authoring tool for the Libvterm creator as
mentioned in
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/21986#issuecomment-1403733054.
build(deps): disable shared library for libvterm
Problem:
Cannot build both static and share libraries for libvterm under Windows.
The static and shared library would have the same name "vterm.lib", thus there would be multiple rules to build the same target.
Solution:
Disable shared library for libvterm.
This makes it possible to use Ninja on Windows to build dependencies (2x speedup!).
But not for Release builds yet.

Problem:
Dirs "config", "packaging", and "third-party" are all closely related
but this is not obvious from the layout. This adds friction for new
contributors.
Solution:
- rename config/ to cmake.config/
- rename test/config/ to test/cmakeconfig/ because it is used in Lua
tests: require('test.cmakeconfig.paths').
- rename packaging/ to cmake.packaging/
- rename third-party/ to cmake.deps/ (parallel with .deps/)
