If a resource compiler is available, use it to add a UTF-8 resource
to the GNU Make executable on Windows. As a result, GNU Make will
use UTF-8 as its ANSI code page, enabling it to work with UTF-8
encoded Makefiles, understand UTF-8 paths passed to it, etc.
These build process changes apply to all 3 ways that GNU Make can
be built for Windows:
1) configure
2) Basic.mk
3) build_w32.bat
When building with Visual Studio the resource compiler should always
be available.
When building with GCC or TCC, it depends on the availability of
'windres'.
If a resource compiler is not available, don't fail the build but
just proceed without the UTF-8 resource, effectively ignoring this
feature.
The UTF-8 resource only has an effect when GNU Make is running on a
minimum target version of Windows Version 1903 (May 2019 Update).
When the built GNU Make is running on an earlier version of Windows,
the embedded UTF-8 resource has no effect.
Code page information is added to --version output to tell users what
code pages are being used by any combination of GNU Make build (with
or without the UTF-8 resource) and Windows version that GNU Make is
running on (earlier than 1903 or not).

* autopull.sh: Ditto.
The README templates were not useful since the replacement step
didn't have anything to replace: rename them.
Rather than creating template files for the config variants, create
mkconfig.h.in containg PACKAGE_* variables to be replaced, and have
config variant header files include it. Note on POSIX we don't use
this, and continue to generate a single config.h.in file.
Use config.status to convert the README.in and mkconfig.h.in files
during distribution creation.
Modify all users of VERSION to use PACKAGE_VERSION instead.
* configure.ac: Use GNU Make not GNU make as the package name.
* README.in: Use GNU Make not GNU make.
* README.git: Remove references to README.W32.template.
* .gitignore: Update for new behavior.
* Basic.mk.template: Remove unused posix_SOURCES and VERSION, and
references to unshipped mk/Posix.mk
* Makefile.am: Add src/mkconfig.h as an extra dist file.
* bootstrap.bat: Rewrite mkconfig.h.in to mkconfig.h
* maintMakefile: Remove obsolete template files; add mkconfig.h.in.
* prepare_vms.com: Rewrite mkconfig.h.in to mkconfig.h
* mk/VMS.mk: Fix incorrect header file prerequisite.
* src/mkconfig.h.in: New file containing PACKAGE variables.
* src/config.ami: Include mkconfig.h.
* src/config.h.W32: Ditto.
* src/configh.dos: Ditto.
* src/config.h-vms: Ditto.
* src/version.c: Use PACKAGE_VERSION not VERSION.
* README.git: Document the changes.
* bootstrap.conf: Set GNULIB_REVISION to avoid random updates.
* configure.ac: Set the minimum autoconf version back to 2.69:
that's the most common version deployed today, and it still works.
* bootstrap: Copy the latest from gnulib.
* autogen.sh: Ditto.
* autopull.sh: Ditto.
* bootstrap-funclib.sh: Ditto.
* README.git: Clarify that these methods are lightly tested.
* build_w32.bat: Don't support any config step: fail if not completed.
Move the config steps into bootstrap.bat. Don't print compile lines
by default and add a --verbose option to show them.
* bootstrap.bat: Ensure we have curl and sed before we do anything.
Pull the latest necessary files from gnulib. Create a convert.sed
script that can update the various template files, and update
Basic.mk, config.h.W32, and gmk-default.h.
* tests/run_make_tests.pl: Remove CRLF rather than using chop. If we
run perl in Git for Bash it seems to handle newlines differently.
* tests/scripts/features/temp_stdin: Remove the make copy and close
STDIN so we can delete the temp file on Windows.
* .gitignore: Ignore the convert.sed script.
Move content from glob/* and config/* into standard GNU directory
locations lib/* and m4/*.
Install the gnulib bootstrap script and its configuration file, and
create a bootstrap.bat file for Windows. Update the README.git file
with new requirements and instructions for building from Git.
At this point we only install the alloca, getloadavg, and FDL modules
from gnulib. We keep our old glob/fnmatch implementation since the
gnulib versions require significant amounts of infrastructure which
doesn't exist on Windows yet. Further work is required here.
Due to a problem with gnulib's version of getloadavg, we need to bump
the minimum required version of automake to 1.16.1 unfortunately.
* README.git: Update instructions
* NEWS: Move developer news to a separate section
* configure.ac: Update for use with gnulib modules
* bootstrap: Bootstrap from Git workspace (import from gnulib)
* bootstrap.conf: Bootstrap configuration for GNU make
* bootstrap.bat: Bootstrap from Git workspace for Windows
* gl/modules/make-glob: Support our local fnmatch/glob implementation
* config/acinclude.m4: Move to m4/
* config/dospaths.m4: Move to m4/
* glob/fnmatch.c: Move to lib/
* glob/fnmatch.h.in: Move to lib/
* glob/glob.c: Move to lib/

* src/getloadavg.c: Remove (obtained from gnulib)
* po/Makevars: Remove (created by bootstrap)
* config/*: Remove leftover files
* glob/*: Remove leftover files
Rename existing ChangeLog files so they won't be distributed.
Add targets to maintMakefile to generate ChangeLog from the Git
repository. This will require a version of gnulib be available.
Because ChangeLog is auto-generated, we have to switch our
automake mode to "foreign" or it will complain and fail.
