[PATCH] AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED: new helper for requiring macros exist

[Mike Frysinger]

In cases where we want to require that a macro exists, but not call it,
introduce a new AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED helper.  The existing AC_REQUIRE macro
will call its argument and does not allow for passing of additional args
to the macro.

Once we have this in place, cut a few callers over to it to fix bugs where
they'd accidentally call other helpers w/out any flags.

+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED(MACRO)
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED is a simple helper for making sure other macros have 
been
+#   defined and thus are available for use.  This avoids random issues where a
+#   macro isn't expanded.  Instead the configure script emits a non-fatal:
+#     ./configure: line 1673: AX_CFLAGS_WARN_ALL: command not found
+#
+#   It's like AC_REQUIRE except it doesn't expand the required macro.
+#
+#   Here's an example:
+#
+#     AX_REQUIRE_DEFINED([AX_CHECK_LINK_FLAG])
