When the C compiler is not GNU GCC, linking with GNU Binutils is going to
cause problems. So until the time that we can include GCC into this
pipeline, its best to avoid Binutils also.
Also, for building CMake, we were relying on an installed CMake, but now,
we are using its own `./bootstrap' script, so it can be built even if the
host system doesn't have CMake.
Also, for TeX Live, we are now setting a custom file as main target to
avoid complications with symbolic links as targets in Make.
Finally, when the user says they don't want to re-write an existing
configuration file, no extra notices will be printed and the configure
script will immediately start building programs.

TeX Live is now also downloaded and built by the reproduction
pipeline. Currently on the basic (TeX and LaTeX) source is built but no
extra packages, so the PDF building will fail. We'll add them in the next
commit.

If the Makefile `$(static_build)' variable in
'/reproduce/src/make/dependencies-build-rules.mk' isn't defined (by
mistake), it will default to blank space, then the Shell will complain
about a bad formatted operator (needing two operands). So an `x' was added
before it and before `yes' which will allow us to safely pass such cases
without a terrible crash.

The default Mac compiler has problems building static libraries. Since we
are not yet building the GNU C Compiler as part of the pipeline, we'll have
to rely on the host system's compiler. Therefore, a check is now added a
the start of the configure script that will build a minimal program with
the `-static' flag and if it fails, it will print a warning. Afterwards,
none of the dependencies will be built with the `-static' flag.

To have better control over the build, GNU Binutils, Bzip2, GNU Gzip, and
XZ Utils have also been added to the pipeline. Some other minor cleanups
and fixes were also implemented throughout the process.

Until now, when a package was to be built statically, we were adding the
`--static' option to `CFLAGS'. This was the wrong place to put it! It
should be in the linking step (thus `LDFLAGS'). Also, based on Bash's
configure script, we are now using the more generic form of `-static'
(single dash, not double dash).
On the other hand, the `--disable-shared' option isn't available in many of
the packages and it is highly redundant with the `-static' option, so it
has been removed to avoid an extra warning in such packages.

To ensure the easy unpacking and building of the programs, Lzip and Tar are
now also build during the initial setup phase.
Some minor corrections were also applied to make things cleaner and
smoother.

Until now, we used semicolons in Make's Call function definitions to build
the programs with GNU build system or CMake. Therefore, if any step of the
process failed, the rest would be ignorant to it and pass. Now, we use `&&'
to separate the different processing steps. In this way, we can be sure
that if any of them fails (during configuration, or building for example),
the pipeline will also stop and not continue to the next command (in the
same recipe).
Since the two Make Call functions were identical in the two
`dependencies-basic.mk' and `dependencies.mk', they are now in one file to
be imported in both.
This bug was found by Raul Infante Sainz.
