Readline provides fancy command line editing such as <Arrow Up> for
previous commands and CTRL+A to jump to the beginning of the line.
This patch does not add any completion on <tab> key, a TODO, if you
will.
A new command line flag, -H, turns on saving the history to disk.
This may have security implications on shared computers, as all
commands are saved as-is. Thus "change re 1234" would be logged
directly to the file.

Rebase on top of preparatory work, fix a few bugs, and tidy up:
* Update the standalone client build, too.
* Fix the Windows build.
* Keep command line options sorted case-insensitively.
* Error out when $HOME is unset and getpwuid() fails, just like we do
for $LOGNAME.
* Give @input_from_rl, @has_rl_input static linkage.
* @has_rl_input is a flag, not a counter, set and test it accordingly.
* Save all input in history, not just commands. Martin's attempt to
recognize commands works only as long as the server sends prompts
faster than the user sends input. Drop that part, and update commit
message accordingly.
* Fix recv_input() not to truncate value of strlen() to int, and to
use memmove() for updating @input_from_rl in place.
* Clean up whitespace in a few places.
* Tweak commit message.

Testing whether the compiler supports it is a bit tricky.
The obvious AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS([-fstack-protector-strong])
doesn't suffice, since some ports of the GNU toolchain reportedly pass
this test, then fail to link. That's because the compiler accepts the
flag, duly emits references to helper code in libc, but libc doesn't
provide, and linking fails.
Instead, use AX_APPEND_LINK_FLAGS with an input source that makes the
compiler emit the extra stack checking code. This requires the latest
version from the autoconf-archive, so update m4/ax* to commit e3d948b.
Also update m4/my_append_compile_flags.m4 to keep it in sync with
upstream's ax_append_compile_flags.m4.

When AC_PROG_CC detects GCC, Make.mk adds a bunch of flags to CFLAGS.
Works only for flags that any version of gcc in use accepts.
Instead, make configure add the flags that actually work to CFLAGS.
This will let us add flags that work only for some compilers.
The new autoconf macros are from autoconf-archive v2015.02.24.
Unfortunately, AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS doesn't work reliably for
-Wno-*: gcc complains about unknown -Wno-foo only when other
diagnostics are being produced. Test -Wfoo instead of -Wno-foo, and
rename to MY_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS.

The test uses an erroneous non-directive within #ifdef _WIN32 to
signal that _WIN32 is defined. Some compilers choke on this even when
_WIN32 isn't defined. Observed with FreeBSD 4.10's gcc 2.95.4.
Broken in commit c02468fd, v4.3.22. Standaline client build already
broken in commit 774b590f, v4.3.17.
Use an unmatched brace instead.
Checking Windows libraries with autoconf is cumbersome, because
linking often fails unless you include the header, and AC_SEARCH_LIBS
doesn't permit that.
Just detect the Windows API instead, with new MY_WINDOWS_API.
and Autoconf macros that come with Automake. It supports multiple
separate builds of the same source tree, and updates dependencies
automatically. Targets info, html, install, install-html, uninstall
and dist are not yet implemented.
System configuration is now automatic. Previously, you had to choose
one of several canned system configurations, defined in Make.sysdefs.
Currently, system configuration always uses UCONTEXT for LWP, and
chooses LWP only if its requirements are met.
Feature configuration changed: instead of editing build.conf (further
processed by doconfig), you pass arguments to configure. Note that
build.conf settings that can be overridden in econfig have no
configure equivalent; just edit econfig instead.
Because generated headers complicate makefiles, fold gamesdef.h into
its users: path.c and ipglob.c become path.c.in and ipglob.c.in,
constants.c, vers.c, options.h simply hardcode defaults (most of them
are run-time configurable).
Call the client empire instead of emp_client. This matches what the
old standalone build did.
