Add "append" kwarg to two configure checks
Add append=True/False to CheckLib, CheckLibWithHeader in SConf. The "implementation", Conftest.CheckLib, already accepted this kwarg, but it could not be passed from an SConscript using the offical API. Updated manpage to describe and expanded a unit test to check. Fixes #2767 Additionally, clarified some things in manpage, including a recent user confusion about how to call CheckFunc.

+- Configure context methods CheckLib and CheckLibWithHeader now expose
+ an additional keyword argument 'append' which controls whether to append
+ (the default) or prepend discovered libraries to $LIBS. The functionality
+ was always present but prepending could not be requested via the offical API.
