--enable-build-backend was taking a list of additional backends to add
to the defaults. Changes to allow to disable some of the defaults is not
possible in a straightforward way, so introduce a new
--build-backends option that sets the exact set of wanted backends,
but also allows to add and remove from the defaults with + or -.
--build-backends=+CompileDB is equivalent to
--enable-build-backend=CompileDB.
--build-backends=-VisualStudio disables the VS backend when it's
automatically enabled.
Now that the VisualStudio backend will no-op if nothing has changed, it
should be safe to always run this backend.
On first run, backend generation takes ~3.5s on my machine. On subsequent run,
it takes ~1.5s. Wall time for a no-op config.status is now ~15.7s. We could like
make the Visual Studio backend faster by not writing so many project files.
But this would require consolidating libraries in moz.build files. And that's
out of scope for this change.
We drop the check for MSVS_VERSION because it won't always be defined on
MinGW/GCC builds. We simply default to "2015" if it isn't set.

At the same time, allow to enable jemalloc 4 with --enable-jemalloc=4.
MOZ_JEMALLOC4 will be deprecated later.
This also changes the semantics for freebsd, where the system jemalloc
is used, relying on MOZ_MEMORY being unset (default on freebsd) and
MOZ_JEMALLOC4 to be set. In this new setup, MOZ_JEMALLOC4 implies
--enable-jemalloc=4, which still works because of the corresponding
changes to old-configure.
While forgetting about it was warned about, having to add every new
environment option to wanted_mozconfig_variables is cumbersome. It turns
out there is a hackish way to make things work without that list, which,
all things considered, is not worse than the hacks around the
wanted_mozconfig_variables function, and are certainly an improvement as
it doesn't require an ever growing list of environment options.
For the same reasons as set_config is being moved to the global scope,
we're moving set_define to the global scope here. An additional change
is that set_define is now part of the sandbox itself instead of being
defined within the sandbox, which makes it share the implementation
details with set_config.
The way set_config is set currently makes it difficult to introspect
moz.configure files to know what configuration items are being set,
because they're hidden in the control flow of functions.
This makes some of the moz.configure more convoluted, but this is why
there are templates, and we can improve the recurring cases afterwards.
This change adds a `Version` type to moz.configure which is a small
wrapper around `distutils.version.Version`. It's suitable for wrapping
version numbers in configure checks and doing equality or greater-than
less-than comparisons in a sensible way.

This aligns with the triplets used by clang/llvm. Technically, this
won't break iOS builds still using -darwin triplets until we move
MOZ_IOS_SDK to moz.configure and actively reject non iOS targets with
the iOS sdk.
Also allow to distinguish iOS and OSX with target.os.
Because --enable-application is the current way to do things, transpose
it to configure.py, but since --enable-application=js doesn't make
sense, make it an alias of a new --enable-project option.
This only partially moves --enable-application out of old-configure.in
because there are a lot of other things intertwined with it.
This moves all the reading mozconfig, finding autoconf, refreshing the
old configure, and running the old configure into sandboxed
moz.configure. This effectively bootstraps the sandboxed python configure.
