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: simpler workaround for shells losing the exit status in exit trap
Now that we can assume our tests are run by a decent POSIX shell, we
can simplify our workaround aimed at having the exit status propagated
correctly to the code in the exit trap. Unfortunately, we cannot
dispense with such a workaround altogether, because it's still required
by some shells we need to support (at least Solaris 10 /bin/ksh and
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh).
For more information about the need of that workaround, see the entry
about 'trap' in the section "Limitations of Shell Builtins" in the
Autoconf manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#trap>
The new workaround has been tested successfully with the following
shells:
- Bash 4.1
- Bash 3.2
- Bash 3.0
- Bash 2.05b
- dash 0.5.5.1
- dash 0.5.2
- AT&T Ksh 93u (from official Debian package)
- MirBSD Korn Shell 40.2 (from official Debian package)
- Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /bin/ksh
- Solaris 9, 10 and 11 /usr/xpg4/bin/sh
- NetBSD 5.1 /bin/sh
- NetBSD 5.1 /bin/ksh
* t/ax/test-init.sh (Exit): Rename ...
(_am_exit): ... like this.
(exit): New alias for '_am_exit'. We cannot simply redefine 'exit'
as a shell function, because some shells (dash 0.5.5.1, Solaris 10
/bin/ksh and /usr/xpg4/bin/sh) do not allow it.
(_am_exit, trap): Add extra escaping for 'exit' calls, to ensure we
really invoke the 'exit' builtin and not our alias with the same
name.
* configure.ac: Check that the shell selected to run our testsuite
supports aliases named like shell builtins.
* t/REAMDE: Adjust.
* All tests: Adjust, by simply using 'exit' instead of 'Exit'.
* t/self-check-explicit-skips.sh: Adjust: the first usage of 'exit'
after it has been redefined as an alias must be on a new line w.r.t.
that where the alias is defined, in order for the redefinition to be
honored.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Delete.
(sc_tests_exit_not_Exit): New.
(syntax_check_rules): Adjust.
(sc_tests_automake_fails): Simplify the recipe a little.
* Several tests: Remove now useless spurious quoting once required
to placate the 'sc_tests_Exit_not_exit' maintainer check.
* gen-testsuite-part: Likewise. Also, avoid uses of 'Exit' in the
generated scripts.

Merge branch 'maint'
* maint:
tests: automatic re-execution works for non-POSIX shells too
tests: use more POSIX shell features our test scripts
+ Extra non-trivial edits:
* t/ax/test-init.sh: Apply the diffs between past versions of
'defs' in maint and in master; i.e., remove handling of $required
entries 'texi2dvi-o' and 'makeinfo-html', and adjust to the fact
that the parallel testsuite harness is now the default.

tests: use more POSIX shell features our test scripts
Since commit 'v1.12-36-g2d68fd9' of 2012-05-07, "configure: search a
sturdy POSIX shell to be used in the testsuite", the shell running
our test script is assured to be a POSIX-conforming shell, so we can
use the more modern and flexible idioms and features that we couldn't
use when we also aimed at compatibility with non-POSIX Bourne shells,
like Solaris /bin/sh.
* t/README: Suggest to use POSIX shell features liberally in test cases,
with possible exception of Makefile recipes and configure shell code.
* Several tests: Adjust to use more POSIX shell features; e.g., $(...)
rather than `...`, $((...)) rather than `expr ...`, "if ! CMD; then ..."
instead of "if CMD; then :; else ...", and so on.
In several places, when using the 'test' built-in, prefer '-eq' over
'=' for numeric comparisons, and prefer "grep -c PATTERN FILE" over
"grep PATTERN FILE | wc -l".
Throw in other low-hanging easy improvements and fixlets while we are
at it.
* t/ax/depcomp.sh, t/ax/tap-summary-aux.sh, t/ax/tap-functions.sh,
defs, defs-static.in: Likewise.

require: autoconf >= 2.65; related simplifications
The new support for Objective C++ (to be added in Automake 1.12.1) can be
simplified if we assume Autoconf version 2.65 or later (2.65 being the
version that introduced support for Objective C++). Since such an Autoconf
version is two and half years old now (and will likely be almost three
years old when Automake 1.13 gets released), requiring it is acceptable.
This will also simplify testing and maintenance of Automake, because we'll
need to test with fewer Autoconf version, and possibly rely on new Autoconf
features.
* NEWS (Version requirements): Automake 1.13 will require Autoconf
2.65 or later.
* configure.ac ($required_autoconf_version): Bump to 2.65.
* m4/init.m4 (AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE): Require Autoconf >= 2.65.
Assume AC_PROG_OBJCXX is unconditionally defined.
* m4/depout.m4: Adjust a comment about a nugget of defensive programming.
* t/ext.sh: Assume that AC_PROG_OBJCXX is unconditionally defined,
and that we are using Autoconf >= 2.65. Related simplifications.
* t/objc-megademo.sh: Likewise.
* t/objcxx-basic.sh: Likewise.
* t/objcxx-deps.sh: Likewise.
* t/objcxx-flags.sh: Likewise.
* t/objcxx-minidemo.sh: Likewise.
* t/nodep2.sh: Likewise.
* t/backcompat3.sh: Assume AC_INIT accepts an URL argument.
* t/depend5.sh: Adjust a comment.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_test_names): Delete this check as now useless:
autoconf >= 2.65 (>= 2.63, actually) can handle arguments to AC_INIT
that contain or are m4 builtins or predefined macros.
(m4_builtin): Delete this now-useless variable as well, was used only
by the check above.
(syntax_check_rules): Update.

tests: avoid spurious failure on missing Obj C/C++ compiler
* t/objc-megademo.sh: Arrange the test to SKIP, not FAIL, if there is
no Objective C or no Objective C++ compiler. Since we are at it, remove
some checks that were actually testing Autoconf (not Automake) behaviour.
