Log Message:
        
        Add some new tests for Libtool's support of Automake
        subdir-objects builds.  This marks the beginning of a move to an
        Autotest driven test framework, which will eventually allow us to
        trim away many of the generated files in the current test demo
        subdirectories:
        
        * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_TESTDIR): Re-enable commented out
        Autotest macros.
        (AUTOTEST, M4SH): Use --language long hand.
        * bootstrap: Generate tests/testsuite, and by implication
        tests/package.m4.
        * Makefile.am (edit): Add substitutions needed to generate
        tests/package.m4 from bootstrap.
        (check-recursive): Add tests/testsuite.
        (TESTSUITE): The new Autotest testsuite target.
        (TESTSUITE_AT): The Autotest sources.
        (EXTRA_DIST): Distribute the generated testsuite and sources.
        (tests/package.m4): Use $(edit) to propagate package metadata to
        the new tests.
        (tests/testsuite): Build the testsuite.
        (tests/atconfig): How to regenerate the file.
        (check-local): Hook Autotest into `make check'.
        (installcheck-local): Run the testsuite on the installed tree.
        (clean-local): Tidy our file droppings.
        * tests/Makefile.am: Remove bitrotted code from Autotest
        experiments in Autoconf 2.52 era.  Updated the rest and moved into
        Makefile.am.
        * tests/testsuite.at: New container for Autotest test groups.
        * tests/am-subdir.at: New test group for compatibility with
        Automake's subdir-objects builds.  Currently holds two tests, one
        for a C project and another similar project in C++.
        * TODO: Add an entry to remind us that these new tests expose a
        bug in libtool.
        * NEWS: Updated.
