configure*: fix build with non-bash /bin/sh
The configure script happens to work if /bin/sh supports the non-POSIX "+=" operator (e.g.: bash) and fails otherwise (e.g.: dash). This usage first appeared on configure.ac on commit 66a476419 ("gcov support"), which is from 2016. If the --enable-apparmor flag is passed to ./configure (which is the default on Arch Linux), running `make` fails due to the missing -lapparmor LDFLAG. Thus, building firejail-git from the AUR does not work if /bin/sh is e.g.: dash. Errors when running the build commands below from makepkg: $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-apparmor >/dev/null ./configure: 3174: EXTRA_CFLAGS+= -mindirect-branch=thunk: not found ./configure: 3246: EXTRA_CFLAGS+= -fstack-clash-protection: not found ./configure: 3282: EXTRA_CFLAGS+= -fstack-protector-strong: not found ./configure: 3518: EXTRA_CFLAGS+= : not found $ make >/dev/null /usr/bin/ld: apparmor.o: in function `apparmor_test': /tmp/firejail-git/src/firejail-git/src/jailcheck/apparmor.c:28: undefined reference to `aa_gettaskcon' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [Makefile:10: jailcheck] Error 1 make: *** [Makefile:42: src/jailcheck/jailcheck] Error 2 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... /usr/bin/ld: apparmor.o: in function `print_apparmor': /tmp/firejail-git/src/firejail-git/src/firemon/apparmor.c:28: undefined reference to `aa_gettaskcon' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [Makefile:10: firemon] Error 1 make: *** [Makefile:42: src/firemon/firemon] Error 2 /usr/bin/ld: join.o: in function `extract_apparmor': /tmp/firejail-git/src/firejail-git/src/firejail/join.c:65: undefined reference to `aa_is_enabled' /usr/bin/ld: sandbox.o: in function `set_apparmor': /tmp/firejail-git/src/firejail-git/src/firejail/sandbox.c:133: undefined reference to `aa_change_onexec' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [Makefile:10: firejail] Error 1 make: *** [Makefile:42: src/firejail/firejail] Error 2 Without the apparmor flag, the CFLAGS related to HAVE_SPECTRE do not get applied either, but `make` does not error out, so the problem is harder to detect in this case.
