Vadim Zeitlin 0397da2a8f Use ld --no-as-needed in Travis Ubuntu 18.04 wxGTK build
This works around a problem in our build system which doesn't set rpath
correctly when linking our own libraries, which means that "qa" library,
for example, doesn't record the path to its "xml" library dependency.

We already worked around this by linking any program using "qa" with
"xml" too, however this doesn't do anything if "--as-needed" flag is in
effect, as is the case by default under Ubuntu 18.04, so make our
workaround work by forcefully disabling this flag.

Real solution would be to use -Wl,-rpath correctly and then stop linking
with "xml" library unnecessarily in e.g. test_gui bakefile.

autogen.mk

autogen.mk is a makefile provided to automatically update the GNU autotools
build system.  It will run Bakefile, aclocal, and autoconf as appropriate.

The .m4 files required for running aclocal are located in build/aclocal.
When upgrading software that wxWidgets depends on (for example, Bakefile,
cppunit, GTK, SDL, or others) it is advisable to upgrade the .m4 files
located in the build/aclocal directory.

It is particularly important that if you use a newer version of Bakefile
to generate the Makefile.in files that you use the newer bakefile*.m4.
Because build/autogen.mk is a Makefile it will automatically rerun
aclocal and autoconf as necessary whenever any m4 in build/aclocal is
newer than the generated aclocal.m4.

You can achieve this simply by copying the new bakefile*.m4 files from 
PREFIX/share/aclocal/ into the build/aclocal/ directory and
rerunning make -f build/autogen.mk.  Note that you should _not_ preserve
source file times (don't use cp -p) or else it's possible your .m4 files
will be older than the generated aclocal.m4).
Example:
cp /usr/share/aclocal/bakefile*.m4 build/aclocal/
make -f build/autogen.mk

Please don't forget to commit updated .m4 files as well as updated aclocal.m4,
configure, and Makefile.in files to wxWidgets.
