Omar Sandoval 6a13d74c0c libdrgn: build with bundled elfutils
Now that we have the bundled version of elfutils, build it from libdrgn
and link to it. We can also get rid of the elfutils version checks from
the libdrgn code.

# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE( [subdirs], [mandatory arguments], [possibly merged arguments], [replacement arguments], [forbidden arguments])
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE attempts to be the equivalent of AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS
# with customizable options for configure scripts.
#
# Run the configure script for each directory from the comma-separated m4
# list 'subdirs'. This macro can be used multiple times. All arguments of
# this macro must be comma-separated lists.
#
# All command line arguments from the parent configure script will be
# given to the subdirectory configure script after the following
# modifications (in that order):
#
# 1. The arguments from the 'mandatory arguments' list shall always be
# appended to the argument list.
#
# 2. The arguments from the 'possibly merged arguments' list shall be
# added if not present in the arguments of the parent configure script or
# merged with the existing argument otherwise.
#
# 3. The arguments from the 'replacement arguments' list shall be added if
# not present in the arguments of the parent configure script or replace
# the existing argument otherwise.
#
# 4. The arguments from the 'forbidden arguments' list shall always be
# removed from the argument list.
#
# The lists 'mandatory arguments' and 'forbidden arguments' can hold any
# kind of argument. The 'possibly merged arguments' and 'replacement
# arguments' expect their arguments to be of the form --option-name=value.
#
# This macro aims to remain as close as possible to the AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS
# macro. It corrects the paths for '--cache-file' and '--srcdir' and adds
# '--disable-option-checking' and '--silent' if necessary.
#
# This macro also sets the output variable subdirs_extra to the list of
# directories recorded with AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE. This variable can be
# used in Makefile rules or substituted in configured files.
#
# This macro shall do nothing more than managing the arguments of the
# configure script. Just like when using AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS, it is up to
# the user to check any requirements or define and substitute any required
# variable for the remainder of the project.
#
# Configure scripts recorded with AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE may be executed
# before configure scripts recorded with AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS.
#
# Without additional arguments, the behaviour of AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE
# should be identical to the behaviour of AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS, apart from
# the contents of the variables subdirs and subdirs_extra (except that
# AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE expects a comma-separated m4 list):
#
# AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([something])
# AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE([something])
#
# This macro may be called multiple times.
#
# Usage example:
#
# Let us assume our project has 4 dependencies, namely A, B, C and D. Here
# are some characteristics of our project and its dependencies:
#
# - A does not require any special option.
#
# - we want to build B with an optional feature which can be enabled with
# its configure script's option '--enable-special-feature'.
#
# - B's configure script is strange and has an option '--with-B=build'.
# After close inspection of its documentation, we don't want B to receive
# this option.
#
# - C and D both need B.
#
# - Just like our project, C and D can build B themselves with the option
# '--with-B=build'.
#
# - We want C and D to use the B we build instead of building it
# themselves.
#
# Our top-level configure script will be called as follows:
#
# $ <path/to/configure> --with-A=build --with-B=build --with-C=build \
# --with-D=build --some-option
#
# Thus we have to make sure that:
#
# - neither B, C or D receive the option '--with-B=build'
#
# - C and D know where to find the headers and libraries of B.
#
# Under those conditions, we can use the AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS macro for A,
# but need to use AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE for B, C and D:
#
# - B must receive '--enable-special-feature' but cannot receive
# '--with-B=build'
#
# - C and D cannot receive '--with-B=build' (or else it would be built
# thrice) and need to be told where to find B (since we are building it,
# it would probably not be available in standard paths).
#
# Here is a configure.ac snippet that solves our problem:
#
# AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS([dependencies/A])
# AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE(
# [dependencies/B], [--enable-special-feature], [], [],
# [--with-B=build])
# AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE(
# [[dependencies/C],[dependencies/D]],
# [],
# [[CPPFLAGS=-I${ac_top_srcdir}/dependencies/B -I${ac_top_builddir}/dependencies/B],
# [LDFLAGS=-L${ac_abs_top_builddir}/dependencies/B/.libs]],
# [--with-B=system],
# [])
#
# If using automake, the following can be added to the Makefile.am (we use
# both $(subdirs) and $(subdirs_extra) since our example above used both
# AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS and AX_SUBDIRS_CONFIGURE):
#
# SUBDIRS = $(subdirs) $(subdirs_extra)

dnl Calls to AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS perform preliminary steps and build a list
dnl '$subdirs' which is used later by _AC_OUTPUT_SUBDIRS (used by AC_OUTPUT)
dnl to actually run the configure scripts.
dnl This macro performs similar preliminary steps but uses
dnl AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS_PRE to delay the final tasks instead of building an
dnl intermediary list and relying on another macro.
dnl
dnl Since each configure script can get different options, a special variable
dnl named 'ax_sub_configure_args_<subdir>' is constructed for each
dnl subdirectory.
