We've been relying on frame pointers being indirectly enabled via things
like --enable-profiling for some time, but this doesn't scale because
some things may want frame pointers while wanting --disable-profiling.
So we move MOZ_FRAMEPTR_FLAGS to python configure and add a new option
to decide whether to enable frame pointers or not.

Stand-alone JS builds now default to without-NSPR on all platforms.
Note that the JS shell builds we do in automation pass --enable-nspr-build so they shouldn't be affected by
the JS shell changes.

Interestingly, the change makes one configure test have a different
result (localeconv ends up being found when it used not to be found),
but the result of that check is actually not used on Windows because we
set HAVE_LOCALECONV manually.

The file is essentially limited to ARM flag tweaks, so we make the
corresponding python configure code ARM-only. In large parts, the
python code sets things up similarly, although in a few places we try to
be smarter about than the current autoconf-based code.
The resulting config.status have been verified to only have
insignificant differences on both arm and aarch64 android builds.

We want our clang bootstrap to use the GCC headers we're building with,
not whatever sysroot it happens to find on the server we're building on.
The -gcc-toolchain argument we specify when building clang will also be
picked up by llvm-config, so we need to strip it out when building the
plugin. Otherwise, we will get peculiar failures about not being able to
find C++ header files.

Consequently, this removes:
- MOZ_LIBPRIO, which is now always enabled.
- non_msvc_compiler, which is now always true.
- The cl.py wrapper, since it's not used anymore.
- CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX, which was only used for the cl.py wrapper.
- NONASCII, which was only there to ensure CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX still
worked in non-ASCII cases.
This however keeps a large part of detecting and configuring for MSVC,
because we still do need it for at least headers, libraries, and midl.

Since ./mach bootstrap installs Android SDK into ~/.mozbuild, we should detect

Also, --with-android-max-sdk and --with-android-min-sdk are still in android.m4

Because we only ever run one subconfigure, the machinery to execute
several is not useful anymore. Inlining it allows to simplify the code
too, because it doesn't need to be generic anymore. This also removes
the last remaining bits of acwinpaths.m4.
Also remove now unused support for --list in build/subconfigure.py.

We don't care anymore: the Gradle build fetches an appropriate version

The desired outcome of this change is that we'll set
-Wl,--version-script based on linker kind and not on the output of
$LINKER -v.
This is a cheap way to address a simple problem that has a complicated
ideal solution. The underlying issue is that in some situations, when
targeting Android, a macOS system ld is interrogated to determine if
a cross-compiling linker "is GNU ld" and a particular linker feature
is set in that situation. The macOS system ld doesn't pass the "is
GNU ld" test, and the linker feature isn't set; that causes link
failures, even though the actual linker has nothing to do with the
system ld.
The ideal solution is to test for linker capabilities dynamically. We
do a lot of that in old-configure.in, and we don't do any of that in
toolchain.configure. Rather than start testing in
toolchain.configure, we hard-code: a cheap solution to the immediate
problem.
MinGW suffers somewhat from the opposite problem: the linker "is GNU
ld" (compatible), but the linker checks don't happen at all. We hard-code
for MinGW based on the C compiler instead.

The GNU_AS check in old-configure depended on running with the value
of $AS before it gets reset to just be the C compiler, which breaks when
we move setting AS into moz.configure.
This patch moves the GNU_AS check to toolchain.configure and changes it
so that it works when the assembler is the C compiler. We do have to
fix things slightly for clang, because the previous check was
succeeding, but not because of clang: it was detecting the presence of
"GNU" in the output for GNU ld/gold and a message about the GNU GPL.
This is a fairly straightforward port of the AS tool checks from old-configure
to toolchain.configure. AS is a little quirky in that we currently do a
normal-looking check for it, but then override that value to be the C compiler
for non-Windows builds, and ml[64]/armasm64 for Windows builds.
After migrating those checks, the only things left in the MOZ_DEFAULT_COMPILER
macro in compiler-opts.m4 were some unused bits, so I removed them:
* Setting of CPP/CXXCPP, which are set in toolchain.configure now
* Setting HOST_LDFLAGS to empty, which doesn't seem particularly useful.
There was also a quirky old test that the assembler was ml[64] when js-ctypes
is enabled that I removed, I don't think it provides any value since this
patch will ensure that we're using the right assembler for Windows builds.
BUILD_TOOLS was only ever used for things that another variable provides
equally well. Removing BUILD_TOOLS means that we can remove win_srcdir
and WIN_TOP_SRC as well.
We were already always enabling it on builds with frame pointers on
Android. We now extend this to builds without frame pointers, helping
with client-side stacktracing for crashes.
It's also the default on many platforms, such as x86-64, whether frame
pointer are enabled or not and on x86 with GCC. Somehow, it's not the
case for x86 with clang, so this makes clang builds the same as GCC
builds in that regard.
On ARM, we were always omitting frame pointers because of a GCC bug, but
we've not been using GCC for Android builds for a long time (and the GCC
bug was actually fixed in 4.7 and backported to 4.6, making it fixed in
all versions of GCC we support).
