--verbose.

including when the cache is used.
There are still several issues: (i) there are too many runs of m4
(one for include, one for warnings, and some more), (ii) warnings
spreading on several lines are not handled gracefully, (iii) the
code meant to have the call stack display for errors does not work
(its handling should move from m4 to autom4te).
* bin/autom4te.in Autom4te::Channels, Autom4te::ChannelDefs):
Use them.
(@preselect): Add m4_warn.
($exit_status): Remove, use $exit_code.
($help): Use Autom4te::ChannelDefs::usage.
(&handle_m4): No longer define the m4_warnings.
At each run, extract and report the warnings.
Always cache the result, including if the exit status is on
failure, since if nothing changes, we should result in the same
failure, hence we can use the cache.
* lib/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4 (m4_warning_ifelse, _m4_warning_ifelse)
(_m4_warning_error_ifelse, __m4_warning_error_ifelse, _m4_warn):
Remove.
(m4_warn): Redefine as a do-nothing: it is its invocation that
matters, as warnings are now reported via traces.
* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_DIAGNOSE): Don't make it a copy of
the contents of m4_warn: make it _call_ m4_warn, so that tracing
the latter reveals calls to the former.
Adjust the tests.
* tests/m4sugar.at (m4@&t@_warn): Use existing warning categories.
* bin/autom4te: Adjust.
In particular, be Autoconf tools are really silent when properly
working, bind the verbosity of the 'note' channel to $verbose.

by aclocal.m4 is changed it might require the importing of another
m4 extension file, i.e., aclocal must be run.
* bin/autoreconf.in (&run_aclocal, $aclocal_supports_force): New.
(&parse_args): Use --force with aclocal if required and supported.
(&autoreconf_current_directory): Use &run_aclocal.
* lib/Autom4te/XFile.pm ($me, &name, &lock, &truncate, &seek): New.
* bin/autom4te.in (&Request::save, &Request::load): Use an IO::File
argument instead of a file name, so that the request file remains
open during the whole autom4te run.
($icache_file): New.

Override SHELL with the shell detected by configure.

* lib/autoconf/status.m4 (_AC_OUTPUT_HEADERS, _AC_OUTPUT_FILES):
When constructing paths with IFS=:, quote the path. If we're
