A side effect of ffi.m4 was that it would un-set CFLAGS when compiling with MSC.
This incidentally worked around the fact that if CFLAGS are set in jemalloc's
configure, it will not set certain variables that are necessary to configure
jemalloc, but are unlikely to be set manually by someone building Firefox.

I recently discovered that build-tools 23.0.3 doesn't seem to exist on Fedora. Although
I fixed mozboot to download 23.0.1 instead, the builds were still failing because of
configure required 23.0.3.
This seems like an artificial limitation, as building with 23.0.1 seems to work just fine.
This patch will allow either 23.0.1 or 23.0.3.
Note: It would probably better to check for some "minimum" version of build-tools I think
GNU sort has a -V option we could use, but I don't know how cross-platform this is.

aarch64 doesn't require compiler flag when using NEON. To use NEON on aarch64 with BUILD_ARM_NEON, we should move NEON's flags to NEON_FLAGS like SSE2_FLAGS.

This patch introduces a small change in behavior: we now unconditionally
require libffi > 3.0.9 when using system ffi, rather than accepting 3.0.9
when using GCC, as 3.0.10 was released 5 years ago, and should be widely
available.

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.

Since bug 1259382, CC and CXX are always set, so we can stop
falling back to cl on Windows, and clang on OSX in compiler-opts.m4.
Also, we were actively rejecting GCC on OSX because it was based on
GCC 4.2 and known to be broken, but that test predates our requirement
for more recent versions of GCC, which would fail configure anyways.
So just remove that GCC test. Building with a modern GCC from macports
or wherever might actually work anyways.
Finally, remove target bit-width mismatch with the compiler as it's
handled in python configure since bug 1288313.

Python configure is already checking that the C++ compiler is indeed a C++
compiler, no need to double check in old-configure.

This patch removes the checks for compat.h, sys/bittypes.h, gnu/libc-version.h,
X11/XKBlib.h, sys/sysmacros.h, and sys/cdefs.h from old-configure, because they
are not checked meaningfully in the tree.
The check for memory.h is removed, because while there are checks for
HAVE_MEMORY_H in the tree, they are in places this is set by a third party
build system.
The check for io.h is also removed, because while there are checks for
HAVE_IO_H, they're only relevant on windows, where this is set manually in
old-configure.
