Apparently, commit 2f02e81510 that removed
$(EXEEXT) suffix from shared libraries was incomplete: it missed the
fact that some libraries were included into noinst_PROGRAMS, resulting
to the following automake warnings:
libasm/Makefile.am:66: warning: deprecated feature: target 'libasm.so' overrides 'libasm.so$(EXEEXT)'
libdw/Makefile.am:114: warning: deprecated feature: target 'libdw.so' overrides 'libdw.so$(EXEEXT)'
libelf/Makefile.am:116: warning: deprecated feature: target 'libelf.so' overrides 'libelf.so$(EXEEXT)'
Fix this by renaming noinst_PROGRAMS to noinst_DATA and removing no
longer needed lib{asm,dw,elf}_so_SOURCES variables and add lib{asm,dw,elf).so
to CLEANFILES.
Fixes: 2f02e81510 ("Drop $(EXEEXT) suffix from shared libraries")

Those flags are not available on all platforms, and omitting them when
not available will not cause any harm. In particular:
-z,defs disallows undefined symbols in object files. This option is
unsupported if the target binary format enforces the same condition
already. Furthermore it is only a compile time sanity check. When it is
omitted, the same binary is produced.
-z,relro instructs the loader to mark sections read-only after loading
the library, where possible. This is a hardening mechanism. If it is
unavailable, the functionality of the code is not affected in any way.
-fPIC instructs the compiler to produce position independent code. While
this is preferable to relocatable code, relocatable code also works and
may even be faster. Relocatable code might just be loaded into memory
multiple times for different processes.
-fPIE is the same thing as -fPIC for executables rather than shared
libraries.

Link them all with -z,defs,-z,relro,--no-undefined, provide complete
dependencies for the link steps, and add libeu.a to each one. libeu.a
contains useful library functionality that each of them might use. The
linker will strip unneeded symbols, so linking it in won't hurt even if
none of the functions are used.

Move the strtab functions from libebl to libdw. Programs often want to
create ELF/DWARF string tables. We don't want (static) linking against
ebl since those are internal functions that might change.
This introduces dwelf_strtab_init, dwelf_strtab_add,
dwelf_strtab_add_len, dwelf_strtab_finalize, dwelf_strent_off,
dwelf_strent_str and dwelf_strtab_free. Documentation for each has
been added to libdwelf.h. The add fucntion got a variant that takes
the length explicitly and finalize was changed to return NULL on
out of memory instead of aborting. All code and tests now uses the
new functions.

Note, elfutils does not explicitly enable AM_SILENT_RULES. It's only
available starting from automake 1.11, but starting from automake 1.13
silent rules are always generated, defaulting to verbose. $(AM_V_foo)
additions should be no-ops on systems that don't support silent rules.
To be silent, use "./configure --enable-silent-rules" or "make V=0".

The commands to check for invalid text relocations in the generated DSOs
shouldn't be displayed. They contain an echo which prints the text.
This patch suppresses the commands from being printed.
Using american fuzzy lop has found a lot of issues. It would be nice to
make using it a bit easier. Our build files make sure that no shared
library uses text relocations, but afl-gcc will insert some on i686.

Now CC=afl-gcc ./configure --disable-textrelcheck will allow them so
that afl can instrument the libraries.
Don't try to use or install them except with afl-fuzz. When selinux is
enabled it might prevent loading the libraries with DT_TEXTREL set.

The --enable-mudflap configure build has been broken for 2 years without
anybody apparently noticing. GCC 4.9 removed mudflap support. Before
release we now run make distcheck with valgrind support. Removal of the
mudflap configure option simplifies the build a little.

Sometimes with cross-compile toolchains, the tools are prefixed with the
target arch. Using AC_CHECK_TOOL looks for tools named like this.

autoreconf will install config/test-driver, ignore it.
Update gettext m4 and po files to version 0.18.2.
Use AM_CPPFLAGS instead of INCLUDES.
All changes are backward compatible with Automake 1.11.
* Change name from "Red Hat elfutils" to "elfutils".
* Update license of standalone tools and test from GPLv2 to GPLv3+.
* Change license of libraries from GPLv2+exception to GPLv2/LGPLv3+.
* Add Developer Certificate of Origin based contributor policy.
top-level:
- COPYING: Upgraded from GPLv2 to GPLv3.
- CONTRIBUTING, COPYING-GPLv2, COPYING-LGPLv3: New files.
- NEWS: Added note about new contribution and license policy.
- Makefile.am: Updated to GPLv3, added new files to EXTRA_DIST.
