[toplevel patch] Macroize build_subdir & target_subdir, newest version

This looks overengineered, I realize.  However,
* it works with the current autoconf2.13
* it is designed to be 'future-proof' against autoconf 2.5x
That's the source of the overengineering.

Tested on i686-pc-linux-gnu.

	* config/acx.m4: Introduce _GCC_TOPLEV_NONCANONICAL_BUILD,
	_GCC_TOPLEV_NONCANOICAL_HOST, _GCC_TOPLEV_NONCANONICAL_TARGET,
	GCC_TOPLEV_SUBDIRS.
	* configure.in: Use GCC_TOPLEV_SUBDIRS.
