There are a number of steps in the library check procedure that are a bit
repetitive, and have been placed into the macro WM_LIB_CHECK to make the
code simpler to write.

The function can have a wider use, so moved then to a more neutral place
and gave them more generic names.

The original check was not compliant with autoconf's syntax, did not
have a very good behaviour for user and was not easy to make evolve.
The new macro:
- uses as much as possible autoconf macros for portability and code
consistency;
- provides a consistent behaviour on yes/no/auto (if user explicitly
enables support, do not silently disable if not found; if library is found
but not the header, complain to let user install it or explicitly disable
support);
- makes uses of shell functions to keep generated configure smaller by
sharing reusable stuff;
- uses an automake conditional to avoid compiling the file is support is
not enabled

As reported by Nicolas (nhs), compilation of wrlib is broken when
switching to gif_lib v5.
The API of gif_lib has known little change to provide thread-safe usage,
so we now detect this in configure and and use the functions as appropriate
in gif.c

The use of the conditionals provided by autotools provides a better result
as they avoid unnecessary compilation.

It includes a fixes from a problem found by Amadeusz S-B³awiñski, because-A
the function 'wm_fn_imgfmt_try_link' modified the variable LDFLAGS
instead of LIBS.
