In Gnulib, Emacs, etc. we are changing ftp: and http: URLs to use
https:, to discourage man-in-the-middle attacks when downloading
software. The attached patch propagates these changes upstream to
Automake. This patch does not affect files that Automake is
downstream of, which I'll patch separately.
Althouth the resources are not secret, plain HTTP is vulnerable to
malicious routers that tamper with responses from GNU servers,
and this sort of thing is all too common when people in some other
countries browse US-based websites. See, for example:

S. Analyzing internet censorship in Pakistan. RTSI
2016. https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/RTSI.2016.7740626
HTTPS is not a complete solution here, but it can be a significant
help. The GNU project regularly serves up code to users, so we should
take some care here.

* t/ax/is_newest: Rewrite to be Bourne-compatible, for /bin/sh shells like
Solaris' that are not POSIX-conforming. The script is so small that such
a rewrite is easier than going through the hoops that would be required to
ensure this script is always executed with a POSIX shell.
* t/ax/is: Add a comment stating that this script is to be kept Bourne
compatible as well.

This will allow to also use it in the makefile recipes used in our
test cases.
* t/ax/test-init.sh (is_newest): Remove.
* t/ax/is_newest: New script.
* Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Add it.
