[libiberty] Update libiberty to autoconf 2.5x


I pretty much knew that libiberty would be the hardest nut to crack.  To
make sure I was doing things the right way, I did it first.  This patch
depends on config/no-executables.m4, posted earlier today.  It allows me to
regenerate configure in libiberty using autoconf 2.57.

The bulk of the change is a mechanical conversion to AC_LIBOBJ.  The only
interesting bits are:

LIB_AC_PROG_CC was a copy of AC_PROG_CC from autoconf 2.13, which set
ac_libiberty_warn_cflags and did not call AC_PROG_CC_WORKS.  Obsoleted by
GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES.

AC_ISC_POSIX needs to be called before link tests, but does not need to be
as early as it is; move it off into the branch where link tests are
performed, so that we don't do it when we can't link.

This patch was extensively tested, on the following builds:

mips --build=i686-linux --host=mipsel-linux
native --build=i686-linux --host=i686-linux
native --build=i686-linux
native --host=i686-linux
native
native --target=mipsel-linux --prefix=/big/fsf/installs/mipsel-linux --with-sysroot=/opt/hardhat/devkit/mips/fp_le/target
mips --host=mipsel-linux
mips --build=i686-linux --host=mipsel-linux --target=i686-linux
cygwin-target --target=i386-pc-cygwin

All were GCC builds except for cygwin-target, which was an uberbaum build. 
I used --enable-languages=c,c++, and built everything.  For GCC that was
"make -j4 all", for cygwin it was "make -j4 all-target-libstdc++-v3 && make
-j4 all-target-winsup" - there's a missing build dependency in there that I
never got around to fixing.

The "--host=mipsel-linux" build failed, because toplevel configure inferred
--build=mipsel-linux, and invoked libiberty's configure script accordingly;
it bombed when it discovered we were cross compiling.  This isn't a problem,
since it didn't work right before.  When everything else has moved to 2.5x
we can make it work.

Is this OK?

	* aclocal.m4: Include acx.m4 and no-executables.m4.
	(libiberty_AC_FUNC_STRNCMP): Use AC_LIBOBJ.
	(LIB_AC_PROG_CC): Remove.
	* configure.in: Update AC_PREREQ to 2.57.  Use GCC_NO_EXECUTABLES.
	Use AC_PROG_CC and set ac_libiberty_warn_cflags instead of using
	LIB_AC_PROG_CC.  Use AC_LIBOBJ.  Call AC_ISC_POSIX later, only if
	performing link tests.
	* configure: Regenerated.
