build-sys: Use ax_check_flag macros from autoconf archive

Those macros cover almost all functionality of attributes.m4 that was
used, so that file can be removed.
The CC_NOUNDEFINED macro is used directly in configure.ac.

+# ===========================================================================
+#
+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+#   AX_CHECK_PREPROC_FLAG(FLAG, [ACTION-SUCCESS], [ACTION-FAILURE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
+#   AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG(FLAG, [ACTION-SUCCESS], [ACTION-FAILURE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
+#   AX_CHECK_LINK_FLAG(FLAG, [ACTION-SUCCESS], [ACTION-FAILURE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
+#   AX_APPEND_FLAG(FLAG, [FLAGS-VARIABLE])
+#   AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS([FLAG1 FLAG2 ...], [FLAGS-VARIABLE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
+#   AX_APPEND_LINK_FLAGS([FLAG1 FLAG2 ...], [FLAGS-VARIABLE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+#   Check whether the given FLAG works with the current language's
+#   preprocessor/compiler/linker, or whether they give an error. (Warnings,
+#   however, are ignored.)
+#
+#   ACTION-SUCCESS/ACTION-FAILURE are shell commands to execute on
+#   success/failure.
+#
+#   If EXTRA-FLAGS is defined, it is added to the current language's default
+#   flags (e.g.  CFLAGS) when the check is done.  The check us thus made
+#   with the following flags: "CFLAGS EXTRA-FLAGS FLAG".  EXTRA-FLAGS can
+#   for example be used to force the compiler to issue an error when a bad
+#   flag is given.
+#
+#   AX_APPEND_FLAG appends the FLAG to the FLAG-VARIABLE shell variable or
+#   the current language's flags if not specified.  FLAG is not added to
+#   FLAG-VARIABLE if it is already in the shell variable.
+#
+#   AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS checks for each FLAG1, FLAG2, etc. using
+#   AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG and if the check is successful the flag is added
+#   to the appropriate FLAGS variable with AX_APPEND_FLAG.  The
+#   FLAGS-VARIABLE and EXTRA-FLAGS arguments are the same as in the other
+#   macros. AX_APPEND_LINK_FLAGS does the same for linker flags.
+#
+#   NOTE: Based on AX_CHECK_COMPILER_FLAGS and AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION.
