build: prefer `USE_IPV6` macro internally (was: `ENABLE_IPV6`)

Before this patch, two macros were used to guard IPv6 features in curl
sources: `ENABLE_IPV6` and `USE_IPV6`. This patch makes the source use
the latter for consistency with other similar switches.

`-DENABLE_IPV6` remains accepted for compatibility as a synonym for
`-DUSE_IPV6`, when passed to the compiler.

`ENABLE_IPV6` also remains the name of the CMake and `Makefile.vc`
options to control this feature.

build: delete `HAVE_STDINT_H` and `HAVE_INTTYPES_H`

We use `stdint.h` unconditionally in all places except one. These uses
are imposed by external dependencies / features. nghttp2, quic, wolfSSL
and `HAVE_MACH_ABSOLUTE_TIME` do require this C99 header. It means that
any of these features make curl require a C99 compiler. (In case of
MSVC, this means Visual Studio 2010 or newer.)

This patch changes the single use of `stdint.h` guarded by
`HAVE_STDINT_H` to use `stdint.h` unconditionally. Also stop using
`inttypes.h` as an alternative there. `HAVE_INTTYPES_H` wasn't used
anywhere else, allowing to delete this feature check as well.

egd: delete feature detection and related source code

EGD is Entropy Gathering Daemon, a socket-based entropy source supported
by pre-OpenSSL v1.1 versions and now deprecated. curl also deprecated it
a while ago.

Its detection in CMake was broken all along because OpenSSL libs were
not linked at the point of feature check.

Delete detection from both cmake and autotools, along with the related
source snippet, and the `--with-egd-socket=` `./configure` option.

Makefile.mk: portable Makefile.m32

Update bare GNU Make `Makefile.m32` to:

- Move objects into a subdirectory.
- Add support for MS-DOS. Tested with DJGPP.
- Add support for Watt-32 (on MS-DOS).
- Add support for AmigaOS.
- Rename `Makefile.m32` to `Makefile.mk`
- Replace `ARCH` with `TRIPLET`.
- Build `tool_hugehelp.c` proper (when tools are available).
- Drop MS-DOS compatibility macro `USE_ZLIB` (replaced by `HAVE_LIBZ`)
- Add support for `ZLIB_LIBS` to override `-lz`.
- Omit object files when building examples.
- Default `CC` to `gcc` once again, for convenience. (Caveat: compiler
name `cc` cannot be set now.)
- Set `-DCURL_NO_OLDIES` for examples, like autotools does.
- Delete `makefile.dj` files. Notice the configuration details and
defaults are not retained with the new method.
- Delete `makefile.amiga` files. A successful build needs a few custom
options. We're also not retaining all build details from the existing
Amiga make files.
- Rename `Makefile.m32` to `Makefile.mk` to reflect that they are not
Windows/MinGW32-specific anymore.
- Add support for new `CFG` options: `-map`, `-debug`, `-trackmem`
- Set `-DNDEBUG` by default.
- Allow using `-DOS=...` in all `lib/config-*.h` headers, syncing this
with `config-win32.h`.
- Look for zlib parts in `ZLIB_PATH/include` and `ZLIB_PATH/lib`
instead of bare `ZLIB_PATH`.

Note that existing build configurations for MS-DOS and AmigaOS likely
become incompatible with this change.

Example AmigaOS configuration:
```
export CROSSPREFIX=/opt/amiga/bin/m68k-amigaos-
export CC=gcc
export CPPFLAGS='-DHAVE_PROTO_BSDSOCKET_H'
export CFLAGS='-mcrt=clib2'
export LDFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
export LIBS='-lnet -lm'
make -C lib -f Makefile.mk
make -C src -f Makefile.mk
```

Example MS-DOS configuration:
```
export CROSSPREFIX=/opt/djgpp/bin/i586-pc-msdosdjgpp-
export WATT_PATH=/opt/djgpp/net/watt
export ZLIB_PATH=/opt/djgpp
export OPENSSL_PATH=/opt/djgpp
export OPENSSL_LIBS='-lssl -lcrypt'
export CFG=-zlib-ssl

touch those. Looked like it's used to detect socket support.
