cross-compilation of unit tests static library/programs fails when
libcurl shared library is also built. This might be due to a libtool or
automake issue. In this case we disable unit tests.
Now use gai_strerror() to get proper error messages when getaddrinfo()
has failed. Detect the function in configure.

The script didn't properly add the -lssh2 link option when it enabled
libssh2 linking where pkg-config isn't found.

configure.ac: Test harness libhostname library will not be built for Windows.
runtests.pl: LD_PRELOAD mechanism will not be used to load libhostname
library on operating systems which lack LD_PRELOAD support.
Added axTLS to autotool files and glue code to misc other files.
axtls.h maps SSL API functions, but may change.
axtls.c is just a stub file and will definitely change.
If --librtmp was specified but pkg-config could not find the librtmp
file, we would have undefined symbols when linking curl.
We prevent this error by disabling this case as suggested on the mailing
list.
Instead of reopening the downloaded file, fsetxattr uses the (already
open) file descriptor to attach extended attributes. This makes the
procedure more robust against errors caused by moved or deleted files.
setxattr is a glibc call to set extended attributes, so configure now
checks for it and the code is adapted to only build when the
functionality is present.
In libssh2 1.2.8, libssh2_session_handshake() replaces
libssh2_session_startup() to fix the previous portability problem with
the socket type that was too small for win64 and thus easily could cause
crashes and more.
... for example when LDAP is not compiled.
Fixed the logic to match the rest of the options' message that is we
update the default message only if the option is not disabled after the
different checks.

librtmp is often statically linked and using sub dependencies like
OpenSSL, so we need to make sure we can actually link with it properly
before enabling it. Otherwise we easily end up trying to link with a
RTMP lib that fails.
1 - libcurl assumes that there are gcrypt functions available when
GnuTLS is.
2 - GnuTLS can be built to use libnettle instead as crypto library,
which breaks assumption (1)
This change makes configure make sure that if GnuTLS is requested and
detected, it also makes sure that gcrypt is present or it errors
out. This is mostly a way to make the user more aware of this flaw, the
correct fix would be to detect which crypto layer that is in use and
adapt our code to use that instead of blindly assuming gcrypt.

libssh2 1.2.6 and later handle >32bit file sizes properly even on 32bit
architectures and we make sure to use that ability.

The curl-config now features a --built-shared command line option that
will output 'yes' or 'no' depending if the build process was asked to
build shared library/libraries or not.
It is primarily made to offer more details to the test suite to know
what kind of stunts it can expect to work.
This passes -Werror to gcc when building curl and libcurl,
allowing easy dection of compile warnings.

configure checks for grep, egrep, sed and ar and set the variables GREP,
EGREP, SED and AR accordingly. We now let already set variables override
the internal choices to let users make decisions when they know the
right choice already. This is a regression as our configure script used
to allow this back before commit 0b57c475 (up to 7.18.2).

When configured with '--without-ssl --with-nss', NTLM authentication
now uses NSS crypto library for MD5 and DES. For MD4 we have a local
implementation in that case. More details are available at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/603783
In order to get it working, curl_global_init() must be called with
CURL_GLOBAL_SSL or CURL_GLOBAL_ALL. That's necessary because NSS needs
to be initialized globally and we do so only when the NSS library is
actually required by protocol. The mentioned call of curl_global_init()
is responsible for creating of the initialization mutex.
There was also slightly changed the NSS initialization scenario, in
particular, loading of the NSS PEM module. It used to be loaded always
right after the NSS library was initialized. Now the library is
initialized as soon as any SSL or NTLM is required, while the PEM module
is prevented from being loaded until the SSL is actually required.
