Bug 1690930 added sysroots that can be bootstrapped. With this change,
we allow --enable-bootstrap=install to pull the right sysroot for the
configured target, and --enable-bootstrap to update it if it was already
there.

In Bug 1671424 we changed the way we configure firefox and it broke the codeql database
generation job. This job wraps the entire build process in a way similar to
codeql --command="./mach build"
Specifically, the previous way we executed the configure shell script made codeql
disable itself because it was named configure (codeql disables itself during
configuration.)
codeql injects via LD_PRELOAD, and it opens a configuration file and a logging file
(getting fd 3 and 4 respectively.)
autoconf grabs file descriptor 4 and uses it a temporary redirection point either
to a file or stdout. When it does so, it closes the original file descriptor 4 and
points it at the new location, which also affects the codeql code, resulting in
undesired logging output going into the configure script.
Because this file descriptor trick is only used to avoid duplicating a few lines of
code, I removed the trick and duplicated the code.

Instead, we now run js/src/old-configure from the top-level configure
after having run old-configure and extracted a few variables to inherit
from it.
Because we're now running from the top-level, $_objdir is always the
top-level objdir, which simplifies some things. The topobjdir in
js/src/config.status, however, needs to stay in js/src because of the
build frontend expecting it there.
When running js/src/old-configure, we used to need some special
treatment for a large number of variables for historic reasons, where
we'd take values from the assigned values before running old-configure
for some, or from AC_SUBSTs after running old-configure.
Now that both old-configure and js/src/old-configure get the same
assignments from old-configure.vars, we don't need anything special for
the former. And only a few remaining variables still need manual work
for the latter.
One notable difference, though, is that the new code doesn't try to
avoid running js subconfigure, which added complexity, and was actually
error-prone.

The files are copied verbatim from upstream autoconf 2.13 (but only the

For not-well-understood reasons, ld's `--gc-sections` discards a large number of the PGO bookkeeping structures that enable us to keep track of function counters, and the effect gets worse in object files generated by clang-10.
As much as I'd like to understand this better, the investigations take way too much time. As a path of least resistance, we can disable `--gc-sections` for the instrumentation phase of PGO builds. It won't harm anything since users never see those builds, and it will improve the performance of the optimized phase greatly.

Version of NSS >= 3.27 have a pkg-config file. We're now requiring 3.53,
so while moving, just use pkg-config, which is simpler.
The old-configure check that rejected some untested platforms for
in-tree NSS is actually rejecting none: the accepted platforms cover all
the supported ones, so we remove that check.
And because building with system NSS without system NSPR doesn't make
sense, imply the latter when the former is used.

At the same time, because it's now simpler to do so, set the right data
file name for big-endians, even though we don't have or produce it
(bug #1264836). Also remove USE_ICU, which is redundant with
JS_HAS_INTL_API, and actively break the build at configure time when
using --without-intl-api with Firefox because this hasn't actually
worked for close to 3 years (since bug 1402048).

Versions of NSPR >= 4.10 come with a pkg-config file. We currently
depend on 4.9.2 for spidermonkey, but much more recent versions for
Firefox. 4.10 is less than a year newer than 4.9.2, and 4.10 is 7 years
old, so bumping the requirement to 4.10 is not really a big deal.
With the use of pkg-config, --with-nspr-cflags and --with-nspr-libs are
not needed.
None of the AC_TRY_COMPILE tests were any useful because
PR_STATIC_ASSERT and PR_UINT64 have been when we look for them since
4.8.6 and 4.9 respectively.

As all versions of zlib >= 1.2.3.1 have a pkg-config file, and 1.2.3.1

iOS support for Gecko has not been tested in years and is most probably
out of date. The build system part of it, specifically the checks in
build/autoconf/ios.m4, are not trivial to port to python configure, and
they prevent other things from moving to python configure (because some
of them change value when MOZ_IOS is set).
The code is left alone, although it could probably be stripped off as
well, but I'll leave that as an exercise for someone else.

clang-plugin.dll links against clang.exe so they both need to use the same C++ standard. This is achieved by having build/clang-plugin/moz.build use the flags from llvm-config. However, llvm-config uses the `-std:c++14` format, so our flags end up looking like:
`-Xclang -std=c++17 ... -std:c++14`
and apparently the former wins out in clang's option plumbing, so the compiler still thinks we requested c++17.
This patch makes clang-plugin use the `-Xclang -std=` format so that the override happens as desired.

JSAPI functions are not extern "C" anymore. This warning has a couple false
positives due to template specialization (see first patch of this bug), but we
were already working around them, because apparently some mingw builds use it.
Once I fix cbindgen to generate the specializations as needed we can remove
those workarounds, but this is green in the meantime and doesn't hurt.

Whether ENABLE_INTL_API and ENABLE_TYPED_OBJECTS are defined, affects
the behaviour of JS_FOR_PROTOTYPES for the prototypes of Intl and
TypedObject. Therefore, these macros have to be available to embedders.
Rename them to JS_HAS_INTL_API and JS_HAS_TYPED_OBJECTS (in line with
the existing JS_HAS_CTYPES) everywhere they are used, and add them to

There are about the same number of occurrences of "ENABLE_INTL_API" and "EXPOSE_INTL_API"
in the tree, so preferring one over the other doesn't lead to fewer changes. Therefore
I went with "ENABLE_INTL_API", because "ENABLE_" (resp. "MOZ_ENABLE") is already used as
the prefix for other preprocessor ifdef's.
