I like the idea, and the implementation is nice and concise. A few comments around robustness (encoding, ninja errors, etc.)

The first line that the break triggers on won't get printed here, right? Would be nice to capture that line as well.

Leaving it out was a conscious decision. That line reads:
FAILED: [code={exitcode}] {target_name}
and I don't think it adds much information: the exit code is not relevant in the vast majority of the cases, and the target name is more often than not completely opaque to the user.
However, if you insist, I can include this line.

When editable-verbose is not enabled, redirect the build output to a file. When the build fails, parse this file to look for the build error and append it to the ImportError exception message. Fixes mesonbuild#820.
