[ng] maintcheck: some tweaks and fixlets
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_no_brace_variable_expansions): Do not complain
about ${MAKEVAR} usages in comments: they might be legitimate. This
change is not strictly required for mainline automake, but will help
in the Automake-NG branch.
* sc_tests_here_document_format: Relax a bit, so that usages like
"cout << "string" << endl;" in the test scripts (usages which can be
used in here documents defining C++ sources) are not flagged as uses
of bad delimiters for here documents. This change is not strictly
required for mainline automake, but will help in the Automake-NG
branch, and will anyway be more future proof w.r.t. possible future
testsuite additions.
(sc_tests_Exit_not_exit): Do not whitelist lines containing $PERL
explicitly (that was only required for one test); instead ...
* t/ext2.sh: ... use "exit (1)" instead of "exit 1" in the perl
invocation of the guilty script.

tests: use 'parallel-tests' Automake option by default
This will help our transition from 'serial-tests' to 'parallel-tests'
as the default test suite driver enabled by a TESTS assignment in the
input Makefile.am. Note that that change of default will only take
place in master, though.
* defs: Pass the 'parallel-tests' option to the AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
invocation in the created 'configure.ac' stub, unless the variable
'am_serial_tests' is set to "yes". Don't pay attention anymore to
the 'am_parallel_tests' variable, that's obsolete now.
* defs-static.in: Warn if the 'am_serial_tests' variable is set in the
environment; conversely, don't warn anymore about 'am_parallel_tests'
being set in the environment.
* Makefile.am (AM_TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Nullify the 'am_serial_tests'
variable instead of the now-obsolete 'am_parallel_tests' one.
* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_obsolete_variables): Also warn against
uses of 'am_parallel_tests', which is now deprecated in favor of
'am_serial_tests'. Similarly, if a use of 'parallel_tests' is seen,
suggest using 'am_serial_tests' instead, not 'am_parallel_tests'.
* gen-testsuite-part: Now that we use the 'parallel-tests' by default
in our tests, we need to completely change the logic and semantics of
generation of sibling tests for those tests that check the Automake
generated testsuite harness itself. Do that, and give a complete
explanation of the new logic and semantics in the relevant comments.
* t/README: Update.
* Lots of test cases: Adjust.

AM_PROG_MKDIR_P: deprecate, to be removed in Automake 1.13
Support for the obsolescent 'AM_PROG_MKDIR_P' macro (and its
output variable '$(mkdir_p)') has already been deprecated in
the documentation. It's now time to make its use actively
emit warnings in the 'obsolete' category as well.
* automake.in (scan_autoconf_traces): Warn about 'AM_PROG_MKDIR_P'
obsolescent if that macro is seen.
* m4/mkdirp.m4 (AM_PROG_MKDIR_P): Warn about its own obsolescence.
* m4/init.m4: Require 'AC_PROG_MKDIR_P', not 'AM_PROG_MKDIR_P'.
* t/mkdirp-deprecation.sh: New test.
* t/list-of-tests.mk: Add it.
* syntax-check.mk (sc_mkdir_p): Delete this check as obsolete.
(syntax_check_rules): Remove it.
* t/gettext-macros.sh: Ensure the gettext-requiring tests will
call aclocal and automake with the 'obsolete' warnings disabled,
since even recent versions of gettext used the now-deprecated
'AM_PROG_MKDIR_P' m4 macro.
* NEWS: Update.

tests: rename 'tests/' => 't/', '*.test' => '*.sh'
When we (soon) convert the Automake testsuite to a non-recursive
make setup, we'll have to fix the entries of $(TESTS) to be
prepended with the subdirectory they are in; this will increase
the length of $(TESTS), and thus increase the possibility of
exceeding the command-line length limits on some systems (most
notably, MinGW/MSYS). See automake bug#7868 for more information.
Thus we rename the 'tests/' subdirectory to 't/', and each 'x.test'
script in there to 'x.sh'; this way, the $(TESTS) entry 'foo.test'
will become 't/foo.sh', which have the same number of characters.

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: TAP-based tests should error if no plan was specified
After this change, it will still be OK for TAP-based tests not to
report any explicit TAP plan -- but they should state *explicitly*
that they want to do so, by calling the 'plan_' function with a
proper argument (currently, either "later" or "unknonwn").
Motivated by a recent issue introduced by yesterday's commit
'v1.11-1959-g0699a84' (pointed out by Peter Rosin, and fixed
by follow-up commit 'v1.11-1961-gea44190').
* tests/tap-functions.sh (plan_): Get rid of '$have_tap_plan_',
and refactor use and initialization of '$planned_' in a way that
will allow client script to get more information on which kind
of plan (if any) has been declared by the former 'plan_' invocation.
(skip_all_): Adjust.
* tests/defs (exit trap): Only print the "lazy" TAP plan if 'plan_'
has requested that *explicitly*.
* syntax-check.mk (sc_tests_tap_plan): Remove: it's obsolete now,
since a TAP-based test that doesn't call 'plan_' explicitly won't
print any TAP plan, and the TAP driver will catch that and report
an error.
(syntax_check_rules): Adjust.

build: require GNU make in order to run the maintainer checks
This is not a real regression in portability, since most maintainer
check rules already assumed GNU grep, and were anyway only meant to
run on the developers' systems (where we can safely assume the
presence of GNU make).
This change will allow us to take advantage, in future changes, of
more GNU make features, thus simplifying or optimizing some of our
maintainer rules.
* GNUmakefile: New, including 'Makefile' and 'syntax-checks.mk'.
* configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_LINKS): Link it in the builddir.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute 'GNUmakefile' and

* syntax-checks.mk: ... this new file, with some adjustments.
