Delan Azabani 5d33e4cd59 Fix build instructions in hacking.md and justfile
The stdenv phases don’t actually do anything (at least not anymore),
and our justfile doesn’t behave the same as our docs.

This patch removes the stdenv phases from the docs, documents our
usage of just, and makes `just setup` heed `$mesonFlags`.

Fixes #413.
Fixes #414.
