Normalize comments in *nix build system m4 files

Normalization include:
- Use dnl for everything that can be ommitted when configure is built in
favor of the shell comment character # which is visible in the output.
- Line length normalized to 80 columns
- Dots for most of the one line sentences
- Macro definitions include similar pattern header comments now

Remove local variables

This patch removes the so called local variables defined per
file basis for certain editors to properly show tab width, and
similar settings. These are mainly used by Vim and Emacs editors
yet with recent changes the once working definitions don't work
anymore in Vim without custom plugins or additional configuration.
Neither are these settings synced across the PHP code base.

A simpler and better approach is EditorConfig and fixing code
using some code style fixing tools in the future instead.

This patch also removes the so called modelines for Vim. Modelines
allow Vim editor specifically to set some editor configuration such as
syntax highlighting, indentation style and tab width to be set in the
first line or the last 5 lines per file basis. Since the php test
files have syntax highlighting already set in most editors properly and
EditorConfig takes care of the indentation settings, this patch removes
these as well for the Vim 6.0 and newer versions.

With the removal of local variables for certain editors such as
Emacs and Vim, the footer is also probably not needed anymore when
creating extensions using ext_skel.php script.

Additionally, Vim modelines for setting php syntax and some editor
settings has been removed from some *.phpt files. All these are
mostly not relevant for phpt files neither work properly in the
middle of the file.

Remove HAVE_STDARG_H

The C89 standard and later defines the `<stdarg.h>` header as part of

can be included unconditionally.

Checking for presence and functionality of the `<stdarg.h>` header and
variadic function is not relevant anymore on current systems since this
is always available.

Also Autoconf suggests relying on at least C89 or above [2] and [3].

Remove HAVE_STRING_H

The C89 standard and later defines the `<string.h>` header as part of
the standard headers [1] and on current systems it is always present.

Code included also `<strings.h>` header as an alterinative in some
files. This kind of check was relevant on some older systems where the
`<strings.h>` file included definitions for the C89 compliant
`<string.h>`. Today such alternative check is not required anymore. The
`<strings.h>` file is part of the POSIX definition these days.

Also Autoconf suggests doing this and relying on C89 or above [2] and [3].

This patch also cleans few unused `<strings.h>` inclusions in the libmbfl.

Remove AC_FUNC_MEMCMP

Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems anymore, including the `AC_FUNC_MEMCMP`.

On some old systems such as SunOS 4.1.3 (EOL in 2003) and NeXT x86
OpenStep (discontinued) the `memcmp` function wasn't present or it
didn't work properly. [2]

On current systems including at least Solaris 10+ this check is not
relevant anymore.

Remove AC_HEADER_TIME

Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems anymore, including the `AC_HEADER_TIME`.

This macro checks if both `<sys/time.h>` and `<time.h>` can be included
at the same time and defines the `TIME_WITH_SYS_TIME` and
`HAVE_SYS_TIME_H` symbols. On current system such check is not relevant
anymore because in case both headers are present both can be also
included at the same time.

This patch simplifies this checking.

Remove AC_C_CONST

Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems, including the `AC_C_CONST`.

The `const` keyword is used in C since C89. On old systems some compilers
lacked the `const` and this macro defined it to be empty. This check was
relevant on systems with compilers before C89 and on current systems it
can be omitted. [2]

PHP also requires at least C89 so `const` is always available.

the AC_TRY_RUN, AC_TRY_COMPILE and AC_TRY_LINK:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/autoconf.git/tree/ChangeLog.2

These macros should be replaced with the current AC_FOO_IFELSE instead:
- AC_TRY_RUN with AC_RUN_IFELSE and AC_LANG_SOURCE
- AC_TRY_LINK with AC_LINK_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM
- AC_TRY_COMPILE with AC_COMPILE_IFELSE and AC_LANG_PROGRAM

PHP 5.4 to 7.1 require Autoconf 2.59+ version, PHP 7.2 and above require
2.64+ version, and the PHP 7.2 phpize script requires 2.59+ version which
are all greater than above mentioned 2.50 version therefore systems
should be well supported by now.

Remove unused Git attributes ident

The $Id$ keywords were used in Subversion where they can be substituted
with filename, last revision number change, last changed date, and last
user who changed it.

In Git this functionality is different and can be done with Git attribute
ident. These need to be defined manually for each file in the
.gitattributes file and are afterwards replaced with 40-character
hexadecimal blob object name which is based only on the particular file
contents.

This patch simplifies handling of $Id$ keywords by removing them since
they are not used anymore.
