autoconf: Fix C++17 detection not working on Ubuntu 16.04.
And probably many other distributions. Until now, ./configure would fail silently printing a warning ./configure: line 4621: AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_17: command not found and then continuing, later failing with a C++ #error saying that some C++11 feature isn't supported (it didn't even get to the C++17 features). This is because older distributions don't come with the `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_17` m4 macro. This commit vendors that macro accordingly. Now ./configure complains correctly: configure: error: *** A compiler with support for C++17 language features is required. On Ubuntu 16.04, ./configure completes if a newer compiler is used, e.g. with gcc-7 from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test using: ./bootstrap.sh ./configure CXX=g++-7 --disable-doc-gen --with-boost=$(nix-build --no-link '<nixpkgs>' -A boost.dev)

# SYNOPSIS
|
||||
#
|
||||
# AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_17([ext|noext], [mandatory|optional])
|
||||
#
|
||||
# DESCRIPTION
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Check for baseline language coverage in the compiler for the C++17
|
||||
# standard; if necessary, add switches to CXX and CXXCPP to enable
|
||||
# support.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# This macro is a convenience alias for calling the AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX
|
||||
# macro with the version set to C++17. The two optional arguments are
|
||||
# forwarded literally as the second and third argument respectively.
|
||||
# Please see the documentation for the AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX macro for
|
||||
# more information. If you want to use this macro, you also need to
|
||||
# download the ax_cxx_compile_stdcxx.m4 file.
