build: new module to convert lib/ to non-recursive make
* gl/modules/non-recursive-gnulib-prefix-hack: New module. * gl/m4/non-recursive-gnulib-prefix-hack.m4: (gl_NON_RECURSIVE_GNULIB_PREFIX_HACK): This is the snippet that this module inserts near the end of configure. * gl/build-aux/prefix-gnulib-mk: New script, from bison. Changes from the code in bison: (prefix_assignment): Split a long line. (prefix): Add trailing slashes to avoid a single false match. Prefix imaxtostr.c and the other *tostr.c file names manually. Also, use $prefix in place of hard-coded "lib/".

+ # such file name with the "lib/" prefix. See also build-aux/prefix-gnulib-mk.
