This removes a check for $ac_cv_prog_cc_c89 which is set by AC_PROG_CC
if defined(__STDC__) in the preprocessor. (Standard compliant compilers
are supposed to define __STDC__ to 1 but the value is actually not
checked here.)
Unfortunately, MSVC doesn't define it, so configure fails for MSVC.
This check is not very useful in practice. Over 30 years after C89 has
been released, there are no C compilers out there that are not
sufficiently compliant with C89 for the project. The only practically
relevant case was that the check rejected C++ compilers. A different
method to reject C++ compilers will be introduced in a later commit.
21b2ebaf74 configure: Remove redundant pkg-config code (Tim Ruffing)
Pull request description:
This removes code that detects the pkg-config tool. We used this
back in the days when we had dependencies. ;) It can always be brought
back if we'll need it in the future.
Note that we still deliver a .pc file for this library, and there is
code in Makefile.am to install it. But this does not require the
pkg-config tool; only consumers of the .pc file will need it. This can
be verified by running `make install` (maybe after `mkdir /tmp/pre` and
`./configure --prefix=/tmp/pre` and checking that the .pc file is
installed correctly.

This uses AM_PROG_AR to discover ar, which is the recommended way to do
so. Among other advantages, it honors the AR environment variable (as
set from the outside). The macro has been around since automake 1.11.2
(Dec 2011).
This commit also removes code that discovers ranlib and strip. ranlib
has been obsolete for decades (ar does its task now automatically), and
anyway LT_INIT takes care of discovering it. The code we used to set
STRIP was last mentioned in the automake 1.5 manual. Since automake 1.6
(Mar 2002), strip is discovered automatically when necessary (look for
the *private* macro AM_PROG_INSTALL_STRIP in the automake manual).
The vector has been taken from https://www.di-mgt.com.au/sha_testvectors.html.
It can be independently verified using the following Python code.
```
h = hashlib.sha256()
for i in range(1_000_000):
h.update(b'a')
print(h.hexdigest())
```
This avoids that the SHA256 implementation would produce wrong paddings
and thus wrong digests for messages of length >= 2^32 bytes on 32-bit
platforms.
This is not exploitable in any way since the SHA256 API is an internal
API and we never call it with that long messages.

The prover, when run on recent sage versions, failed to prove some of its
goals due to a change in sage. This commit adapts our code accordingly.
The prover passes again after this commit.
The macOS CI tasks often error fail when doing `brew update` with
git fetch errors:
```
remote: fatal: packfile /data/repositories/b/nw/b6/07/5c/123272362/network.git/objects/pack/pack-2139bd07361b62a358e380a0e7d58ec35593d191.pack cannot be accessed
fatal: protocol error: bad pack header
Error: Fetching /usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-core failed!
```
Superficially this seems to be a problem on the GitHub server because
the message shows a "remote" error. But it seems we're the only one in
the world running into this specific issue when doing `brew update`, so
it's more likely that the something else is the culprit, and this error
message is just a symptom.
This commit replaces `brew update` with a complete reinstallation of
brew. This is essentially a shot in the dark but it's worth a try, and
I doubt it's significantly more expensive. If that won't work, we may
consider simply retrying `brew update` a few times.
According to [autoconf 2.70](https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.70/html_node/Obsolete-Macros.html)
documentation, the `AC_PROG_CC_C89' is replaced by `AC_PROG_CC`, which
defines the same variable `ac_cv_prog_cc_c89`.
Avoids the following message:
```
configure.ac:23: warning: The macro `AC_PROG_CC_C89' is obsolete.
```
Also, remove deprecated `AM_PROG_CC_C_O`.
