While here, sync up the ax_*.m4 with autoconf-archive.

- Force building make as a companion tool if host make is older than
4.0 (CentOS 7 currently has 3.82)
- Disable 2.29 as a choice if host python is older than 3.4
(CentOS 7 has 2.6 unless python from EPEL is installed)
- Python2 emits its version information to STDERR. Ugh.
While there, also use the detected host Python for GDB configuration.

Ideally, we should just skip the archives for which we don't have the
utilities; let's leave it until I convert the "trivial checks" part of
crosstool-NG.sh into a separate configure script.

glibc build requires GNU bison >= 2.7 but Apple ships bison 2.3. If we
provide an override for GNU bison it should be possible to use a version
from homebrew.

As we support CentOS, for example, we have a problem there
automake: warnings are treated as errors
kconfig/Makefile.am:26: warning: compiling 'lxdialog/checklist.c' in subdir requires 'AM_PROG_CC_C_O' in
'configure.ac'
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1
Automake does not allow us to place the hooks before its generated actions,
and does not allow us to check MAKECMDGOALS, and does not support a mechanism
for disabling make install (such as noinst_SUBDIRS, requested a few times
on automake mailing list). The only way I could preserve the current behavior
is to have a GNUmakefile wrapper that will convert MAKECMDGOAL into a variable
unknown to automake - which seems too convoluted a solution for the problem
being solved.
Hence the approach is to not override anything for --enable-local. It is now
fully handled by selecting different values for CT_xxx_DIR in ct-ng.in; but
at the build-system level, all the variables remain the same. We just don't
support 'make install' in that case anymore; but the ct-ng in the working
copy can be used after a regular 'make' (or 'make all').
Help message for --enable-local updated accordingly.

Instead, just honor CFLAGS/CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS as they're passed down from
configure. This brings the build process in compliance with the
recommended practices.

They don't make sense - using same ct-ng won't work with different versions,
so they cannot coexist in the same prefix.
Also localize other configure variables so that their usage is easier to track.

- Update to 20180129
- Throw in --disable-db-install if database is disabled; otherwise
'make install' tries to run tic which is not built.
- Select appropriate strip utility for the host; otherwise non-x86
architectures fail to install (unless --disable-stripping is also
added)

- Update .gitignore, do not place .gitignore into directories installed
in bulk
- Remove executable permissions and shebangs from the scripts that are
supposed to be invoked only via ct-ng frontent; prepend them with $(bash).
Despite what showSamples.sh said, it already has some bashisms.
- Remove --with autotools-dev and override dh_update_autotools_config
to avoid having config.{sub,guess} clobbered with older versions
- Install bash completion where Debian (now) expects it
- Update man page to use .\" as the comment delimiter, instead of
undefined macro (."); also, minor text edits.
- Install kconfig.mk without execute permission.
- Remove shell wrappers from 170-localedef-fix-trampoline.patch, we
do not use that for applying patches
- Revoke execute permissions on 210-expat.sh
- Get flags from dpkg-buildflags if available

might want to get rid of configure.in completely, doing on-the-fly
checks at the time of `ct-ng build`, but that is left for another day.

configure.ac now finds how to count the CPUs in a system. Currently
the getconf method and sysctl methods are supported. Adding more is
easy enough.

After much struggling with macos (BSD) sed and even getting everything
work in crosstool-ng itself, I had to abandon that because some
components rely on GNU syntax. Specifically, GNU libc uses '/.../{H;g}'
(note absense of the separator after 'g').
So, revert the -r/-E detection and check for sed's being of GNU origin.
MacOS people, sorry, but you'd have to install GNU sed.

... and then use the right option. See the note in scripts/functions
on where we should use ${foo} and where just 'foo'; this boils down to
whether we can expect the build tools override to be in effect (e.g. in
the actual build scripts) or not (i.e. outside of scripts/build).
While running in scripts/functions, or in scripts/crosstool-NG.sh the
build tools override directory (.build/tools/bin) may have not been
set up (yet, or at all).
Also, modify the installed scripts (populate, xldd) accordingly.
