wx-config has --optional-libs command line option for requesting linker
flags for libraries that an application could optionally use but might
not be available in current wxWidgets build.
Make this feature available to Autoconf macro users.
Closes https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1256
Don't use "$4" inside m4 comment, as autoconf 2.69 somehow completely mangles
the generated configure when the 4th argument is indeed specified: we end up
with a part of this comment in the generated file.
Although "base" is not actually a toolkit, allow both the automatic toolkit
detection and the configure flag --with-toolkit=base find and use a base-only
library.

If WX_STANDARD_OPTIONS() is not used, we shouldn't add any debugging nor
optimization options to C{,XX}FLAGS as the application presumably handles it
on its own, it was completely unexpected to see -O2 appear in CXXFLAGS.
Fix this by only doing anything if DEBUG variable is defined. Even this is not
optimal as it's such a common name that it could clash with an unrelated
variable in the application configure script, but doing anything else risks
breaking existing scripts relying on it being named like this.
There were many problems if some options selecting the build of wxWidgets to
use were not specified at all, i.e. if the corresponding string was not used
in WX_STANDARD_OPTIONS() argument or if WX_STANDARD_OPTIONS() was not used at
all (which is perfectly possible and allowed).
In this case, the output of WX_STANDARD_OPTIONS_SUMMARY_MSG() was corrupted
(e.g. it could output "WX_DEBUG is" without any value and "PORT:" value was
empty) and, worse, as that macro is only cosmetic, WX_LIKE_LIBNAME() didn't
work correctly neither, making it difficult to check for the libraries using
it to construct their name (as many libraries from wxCode do).
Get rid of all these problems by simply treating empty/undefined variables as
meaning "auto detect" instead of having to set them to the special "auto"
value first. This makes sense as now we have just 3 states: 0, 1 or null,
instead of previous 4 (+ "auto") and is much more robust.
The code set WX_PORT to $TOOLKIT only if the latter was empty which made no
sense and also set WX_PORT to the never used nor documented anywhere else
$PORT if $TOOLKIT was not empty which made even less of it.
Just assign $TOOLKIT to WX_PORT if the former has a valid value.
Remove the never used 4th and 5th arguments of _WX_SELECTEDCONFIG_CHECKFOR
macro.
Also update the comment to better explain what does the macro actually do: it
doesn't "output the message" but rather sets a variable, with the message
being an optional side effect.
This keyword is not expanded by Git which means it's not replaced with the
correct revision value in the releases made using git-based scripts and it's
confusing to have lines with unexpanded "$Id$" in the released files. As
expanding them with Git is not that simple (it could be done with git archive
and export-subst attribute) and there are not many benefits in having them in
the first place, just remove all these lines.
If nothing else, this will make an eventual transition to Git simpler.

There is no more "mac" toolkit in 2.9, we have "osx_carbon" and "osx_cocoa"
instead (and also "osx_iphone" but it's not used with configure so far).

The company behind MGL toolkit (SciTech) doesn't exist since several years and
this port is not used by anybody, so remove it to ease maintenance burden.

Although the new WXRC_CHECK is preferred, still allow using AM_PATH_WXRC for
the applications which need to build in both 2.8 and 2.9 environments.

WX_VERSION was renamed to WX_VERSION_FULL for some reason in rev 44731 but
this was a backwards incompatible change as the existing configure scripts
could (and did) use WX_VERSION, so undo this change, at least until someone
finds a worthy reason for it
