We define extra_toolchain_flags for passing extra flags to the target
compiler during configure. But the way things are currently set up, we
pass those flags to the host compiler during configure as well. This
behavior is incorrect, and we should only be passing the flags from
extra_toolchain_flags if we're compiling for the target.

In bug 1296530, we made @depends take a when argument, it can now replace
all uses of @depends_when.

Currently, it returns either None or the contents of the compiler's stdout,
which is always expected to be an empty string, and is not very useful. So
instead, return True in the latter case.

The base compiler check in python configure does some preprocessing,
which ensures the compiler works to some extent. Autoconf used to have
a more complete test, doing a compile/link. We do have plenty of tests
afterwards that do that anyways, but it's better if we fail early if
the toolchain fails somehow.
This refactors try_compile such that the *_compiler variable themselves
can be used to trigger compiler tests. Eventually, we'll want something
similar for preprocessing and possibly other invocations.
This also removes similar tests from build/autoconf/toolchain.m4.
