  Fix shared module generation on AIX bug #77676

Makefiles for PHP extensions generated by phpize expect the PHP_MODULES
to contain a list of libtool .la files so that it can read the $dlname
variable from them by sourcing them in to a shell. On AIX, the code was
setting PHP_MODULES to a list of .so files, which meant the dlname was
blank, preventing the tests from being able to run.

Change the AIX code path in the PHP_SHARED_MODULE macro to match the
output on other platforms, using libtool .la files.

We work around a strlen() optimization bug in GCC 8[1] by checking
whether the used GCC exhibits the broken behavior, and if so by
disabling `optimize-strlen`.

This removes two old Autoconf macro definitions since they are not used
anymore.

AC_RUN_IFELSE program can't be run when cross-compiling. This fix removes
warnings given by autotools scripts.

Autoconf 2.50 released in 2001 made several macros obsolete including
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.

Autoconf 2.50 made several changes to macro calls. These include also
arguments passed to AC_OUTPUT macro. The upgrading chapter in Autoconf
documentation include an example of using AC_OUTPUT with
AC_CONFIG_FILES and AC_CONFIG_COMMANDS:

PHP 5.4 to 7.1 require Autoconf 2.59+, PHP 7.2+ require Autoconf 2.64+,
and PHP 7.2 phpize script requires Autoconf 2.59+ which are all greater
than above mentioned 2.50 version. Systems out there should well support
this by now.
