Prefer https: URLs
In Gnulib, Emacs, etc. we are changing ftp: and http: URLs to use
https:, to discourage man-in-the-middle attacks when downloading
software. The attached patch propagates these changes upstream to
Automake. This patch does not affect files that Automake is
downstream of, which I'll patch separately.
Althouth the resources are not secret, plain HTTP is vulnerable to
malicious routers that tamper with responses from GNU servers,
and this sort of thing is all too common when people in some other
countries browse US-based websites. See, for example:
Aceto G, Botta A, Pescapé A, Awan MF, Ahmad T, Qaisar
S. Analyzing internet censorship in Pakistan. RTSI
2016. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/RTSI.2016.7740626
HTTPS is not a complete solution here, but it can be a significant
help. The GNU project regularly serves up code to users, so we should
take some care here.

tests: remove exec bit from all of them ('micro' branch)
It gives the impression that they are directly runnable, as with
"./t/foo.sh", but it has been a while since that was the case. Today,
tests are runnable only through "make check" or "./runtest".
This change is for the 'micro' branch (automake 1.13.2a). It will
soon be followed by similar patches for the 'maint' branch (automake
1.13a) and the 'master' branch (automake 1.99a).
* t/*.sh, t/*.tap: Remove executable bit.
* maint.mk (sc_tests_executable): Remove.
(syntax_check_rules): Adjust.
* gen-testsuite-part: Set permissions of generated tests to
'444' (-r--r--r--), rather than 555 (-r-xr-xr-x).

1.13, so better make sure that is actually the case.

compile: use 'compile' script when "-c -o" is used with losing compilers
Do so seen when only source files in the "current" directory are present.
This commit is part of a series of related changes addressing automake
bug#13378 (see also the plan 'PLANS/subdir-objects.txt').
Before this change, Automake-generated C compilation rules mistakenly
passed the "-c -o" options combination unconditionally (even to losing
compiler) when the 'subdir-objects' was used but sources were only
present in the top-level directory. Issue spotted by Nick Bowler:
<http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13378#35>
<http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13378#44>
We fix this by having Automake redefine AC_PROG_CC to take over the role
of AM_PROG_CC_C_O and to require the 'compile' script unconditionally
(albeit that will continue to be invoked only when inferior compilers
are detected).
Among other things, this means AM_PROG_CC_C_O explicitly is no longer
required; that macro is still supported for backward-compatibility, but
calling it is basically a no-op now.
This change has some pros and some cons (obviously, we believe the former
outweighs the latter). Here are the most relevant ones:
+ Pros 1:
Some logic in the Automake script has been simplified.
+ Pros 2:
That simplification has automatically fixed an actual bug (see
Nick's mails referenced above; admittedly, that was present only in
corner-case situations, but still); the test 't/ccnoco4.sh', which
demonstrated the bug and has been failing so far, now passes.
+ Pros 3:
Things works more "automagically" now (no need to manually add the
AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro to configure.ac anymore).
* Cons 1:
The 'compile' script will be required in all projects using C
compilation; this will only be a problem for packages not using
'--add-missing'. However, such packages are definitely more rare
than the ones using '--add-missing', and adjusting them will be
trivial -- just copy the compile script over from the new Automake
installation.
* Cons 2:
The copy & paste of autoconf internals hack this change has introduced
in our "rewrite" of AC_PROG_CC is really an egregious abomination. It
can only be justified with the fact that we expect future versions of
autoconf to implement the semantics we need directly in AC_PROG_CC, so
that we'll be able to leverage that (since Automake 1.14 will require
the latest Autoconf version released).
Now, the detailed list of file-by-file changes ...
* automake.in ($seen_cc_c_o): Remove this global variable.
(scan_autoconf_traces): Don't set it, and do not trace the
'AM_PROG_CC_C_O' m4 macro.
(lang_c_rewrite): Remove, no longer needed.
* doc/automake.texi: Adjust expected "autoreconf --install" output
in the amhello example. Remove statements about the need for the
AM_PROG_CC_C_O macro. Report it is obsolete now.
* m4/init.m4: Re-write AC_PROG_CC to append checks about whether the
C compiler supports "-c -o" together. These checks have basically
been ripped out (with adaptations) from the 'AC_PROG_CC_C_O' macro
of Autoconf and ...
* m4/minuso.m4 (AM_PROG_CC_C_O): ... this macro of ours, which has
thus basically become a no-op.
* t/ax/am-test-lib.sh (am_setup_testdir): Also copy the 'compile'
script in the test directory; if we don't do so, every test using
AC_PROG_CC should call automake with the "--add-missing" option, or
copy the 'compile' script itself.
* t/cond11.sh: No need to create a dummy 'compile' script: that is
already brought in by 'am_setup_testdir()', that is automatically
invoked when 'test-lib.sh' is sourced.
* t/add-missing.tap: Adjust: we expect the 'compile' script to be
required by a mere AC_PROG_CC call now.
* t/dist-auxdir-many-subdirs.sh: Likewise.
* t/specflg6.sh: Likewise.
* t/subobj4.sh: Likewise.
* t/cxx-lt-demo.sh: Likewise, and update comments to match.
* t/distcom2.sh: Enhance a little.
* t/dollarvar2.sh: Adjust.
* t/extra-portability.sh: Likewise.
* t/libobj19.sh: Likewise.
* t/per-target-flags.sh: Likewise.
* t/repeated-options.sh: Likewise.
* t/subobj.sh: Likewise, and enhance a little.
* t/ccnoco2.sh: Remove as obsolete.
* t/list-of-tests.mk (handwritten_TESTS): Adjust.
(XFAIL_TESTS): Remove 't/ccnoco4.sh'.
* NEWS: Update.

tests: prefer including 'test-init.sh' rather than './defs'
This is a follow-up to today's commit v1.12.4-22-g0610fc8,
"tests: prepare to move ./defs to t/ax/test-init.sh"
* All tests: To run the common setup, use the command:
. test-init.sh
instead of the older, "historical" one:
. ./defs || exit 1
Note that the "|| exit 1" wasn't really useful, since the 'errexit'
shell flag is in effect in both './defs' and 'test-init.sh', and all
the known shells that are good enough to run the automake testsuite
do automatically exit with error when a sourced file cannot be found
(at least, they do so in non-interactive mode, which is the only
mode that concerns us in the testsuite).
* t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/testsuite-summary-checks.sh: Likewise.
* gen-testsuite-part: Do the same in the generated tests.

tests: merge, tweak and modernize few test scripts
Basically an adjusted-and-improved cherry-pick from Automake-NG
commit v1.12.1-343-gff30f83.
* t/specflg.sh, t/specflg2.sh, t/specflg3.sh: Merged into ...
* t/per-target-flags.sh: ... this test.
* t/fo.sh: Remove, its weak grepping checks well superseded by
the semantic checks in 't/fort4.sh'.
* t/cxxo.sh: Remove, its weak grepping checks well superseded
by the semantic checks in 't/cxx-demo.sh'.
* t/cxxcpp.sh: Enhance a little.
* t/empty.sh: Renamed ...
* t/empty-data-primary.sh: ... to this. Add trailing ':' command.
* t/empty2.sh, t/empty3.sh, t/empty4.sh: Merged ...
* t/empty-sources-primary.tap: ... into this new test.
* t/no-outdir-option.sh: Remove. A test to check than an obsolete
and now deleted option ("--output-dir") stays deleted is way too
much even for the most test-infected person ;-)
* t/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust.
