Most of the logic seems to be hangovers from when session helper was
using the BerkleyDB v1.85 compatibility interface. Some of it is
possibly still necessary for the time_quota helper, but that helper has
not been using it so far and needs an upgrade to match what happened to
session helper.
Changes:
* The helpers needing -ldb will not be built unless the library and
headers are available. So we can drop the Makefile LIB_DB substitutions
and always just link -ldb explicitly to these helpers.
NP: Anyone who needs small minimal binaries, can build with the
--as-needed linker flag, or without these helpers. This change has no
effect on other helpers or the main squid binary.
* Since we no longer need to check if -ldb is necessary, we can drop the
configure.ac and acinclude logic detecting that.
* Remove unused AC_CHECK_DECL(dbopen, ...)
- resolves one "FIXME"
* Fix the time_quota helper check to only scan db.h header file contents
if that file is existing, and if the db_185.h file is not being used
instead.
* Fix the session helper check to only try compiling with the db.h
header if that header actually exists.
* De-duplicate the library header file detection shared by configure.ac
and the helpers required.m4 files (after the above two changes).
