DBUS_ENABLE_X11_AUTOLAUNCH obviously requires DBUS_BUILD_X11. However,
the converse is not true.
If DBUS_BUILD_X11 is defined, dbus-launch will be able to connect to
the X server to determine when the session ends; most distributors will
want this, but it can be disabled with the standard Autoconf option
--without-x.
If DBUS_ENABLE_X11_AUTOLAUNCH is *also* defined, dbus-launch and libdbus
will be willing to perform autolaunch. Again, most distributors will want
this, but it can be disabled with --disable-x11-autolaunch.

Without the correct number of levels of quoting, autoconf mistakenly
believes we didn't use AC_LANG_SOURCE where required. (In fact,
AC_LANG_PROGRAM calls AC_LANG_SOURCE.)

Also use AC_LINK_IFELSE rather than reinventing it as a shell function.
This was the last user of ld_supports_flag, so, delete it.

It's a minor security benefit, but not automatically beneficial (it
enables ASLR, but breaks prelinking, some buggy toolchains, and some gdb
versions). Distributions who know their infrastructure works well can
enable it just as easily via
./configure CFLAGS="-fPIE" LDFLAGS="-pie"
without extra support from us, and that's a generic solution applicable to
many packages.
Similarly, don't force libdbus and libdbus-internal to be PIC: libtool
knows better than we do whether that's necessary/beneficial on a
particular platform.

The D-Bus type system isn't implementable without 64-bit support, although
for historical reasons we have some sort of semi-working support for
platforms with no 64-bit integers. Let's find out whether any
practically relevant platform still lacks these types...
(GLib appears to have required 64-bit integer types since 2001.)
