tests: quote 'like this', not `like this', as per GCS recommendation
This patch converts the automake testsuite and related files, to
the use of new quoting format 'like this' or "like this" rather
than `like this'.
This is done for consistency with the new recommendations in the GNU
Coding Standards, and, well, because I've come to actually prefer
the '...' and "..." quoting formats over the `...' one.
* tests/README: Update quoting format throughout. Remove some
"excessive" use of quoting, and throw in minor rewording where
appropriate.
* tests/Makefile.am: Likewise, for comments.
* tests/CheckListOfTests.am: Likewise.
* tests/defs-static.in: Likewise.
* tests/defs: Likewise.
* tests/trivial-test-driver: Likewise.
* Many tests/*.tap, tests/*.test and tests/*.sh files: Likewise,
and for the diagnostic and informational messages as well.
* tests/gen-testsuite-part: Likewise, and for the generated tests
as well.

tests: prefer 'configure.ac' over 'configure.in'
With this change, our testsuite now uses 'configure.ac' as the
name for the typical autoconf input, instead of the obsolescent
'configure.in' (which has been deprecated for several years, at
least since autoconf 2.50).
Most of the test cases changed by this commit have been
automatically modified with this sed command (using GNU
sed):
sed -i 's/\<configure\(\\\?\)\.in\>/configure\1.ac/g'
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_configure_in): New syntax check.
(syntax_check_rules): Add it.
* tests/defs: Create stub for autoconf input in 'configure.ac',
not in 'configure.in'. Adjust comments.
($AUTOCONF, $AUTOHEADER, $AUTORECONF): Remove workaround for the
infamous debian autoconf wrapper: we don't need such workaround
anymore now that we name our autoconf input as 'configure.ac'.
For more information, see commit v1.11-564-g63da492 "test defs:
hack to support autoconf-wrapper programs" of 16-12-2011.
* tests/README: Use 'configure.ac', not 'configure.in'.
* Many many tests: Likewise.
* tests/backcompat3.test: Adjust to avoid spurious failures.
* tests/backcompat5.test: Likewise.
* tests/missing6.test: Likewise.
* tests/backcompat6.test: Likewise, and extend a bit since we
are at it.

dist: do not wrap calls to 'tar' with the 'missing' script
The `missing' script is meant to allow non-developers to build a
package in the face of slightly-skewed timestamps (as might happen
e.g. when the package is obtained from a VCS checkout rather than
from a distribution tarball). It is *not* the business of the
`missing' script to try to provide wrappers for all the maintainer
tools (in this case, to tool being a decent tar program). Such
wrapping of `tar' was not only inappropriate, but it was also
preventing the legitimate overriding (at make runtime) of the
`tar' program used in the creation of the distribution tarballs.
See also automake bug#9822.
* lib/missing: Don't try to specially wrap `tar' invocations
anymore.
* m4/tar.m4 (_AM_PROG_TAR): In the definitions of the `AMTAR'
variable, do not wrap the `tar' invocation with the `missing'
script anymore. Instead, allow the user to override the intended
tar program at make runtime, by defining the `TAR' environment
variable.
[$1 == v7]: Similarly for the definitions of the `am__tar' and
`am__untar' variables. Since we are at it, don't make them depend
anymore on the definition of the obsolescent `AMTAR' variable.
* NEWS: Update.
* tests/missing-tar.test: Remove, it's obsolete.
* tests/tar-override.test: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (TESTS): Update.
