canonicalize, canonicalize-lgpl: use <stdlib.h>
Match current gnulib conventions of glibc functions being declared in
the same header as glibc. This makes it easier to replace broken
canonicalize_file_name. canonicalize still requires "canonicalize.h"
because canonicalize_filename_mode is not in glibc. With this patch,
canonicalize-lgpl always provides realpath and canonicalize_file_name,
while canonicalize can provide canonicalize_file_name but not
realpath; if both modules are in use, canonicalize_file_name comes
from the LGPLv2+ sources, but the testing comes from canonicalize.
* modules/canonicalize-lgpl (Files): Drop canonicalize.h.
(Include): Mention <stdlib.h>.
(configure.ac): Mention functions we provide.
* modules/canonicalize (configure.ac): Likewise.
* m4/canonicalize-lgpl.m4 (gl_CANONICALIZE_LGPL): Always replace
realpath if canonicalize_file_name is missing.
* m4/stdlib_h.m4 (gl_STDLIB_H_DEFAULTS): Provide defaults.
* modules/stdlib (Makefile.am): Substitute witnesses.
* lib/stdlib.in.h (canonicalize_file_name, realpath): Declare.
* lib/canonicalize-lgpl.c (includes): Adjust accordingly.
* lib/canonicalize.h (canonicalize_file_name): Drop declaration.
* NEWS: Document this.
* doc/glibc-functions/canonicalize_file_name.texi
(canonicalize_file_name): Likewise.
* doc/posix-functions/realpath.texi (realpath): Likewise.
* tests/test-canonicalize-lgpl.c (includes): Use <stdlib.h>.
