I tried to build latest emacs bootstrapped with the latest autoconf and
hit a failure due to inadequate quoting in configure.ac. This fixes
three such problems:

Subject: [PATCH] fix configure.ac quoting of AC_CHECK_LIB's 2nd arg

Running an autoconf-head-generated configure, would fail like this:
  /emacs/configure: line 18002: syntax error near unexpected token `;;'
  /emacs/configure: line 18002: `  ;;'
That is due to under-quoting of AC_CHECK_LIB's second argument, which led to
the comma in an embedded string being interpreted as paramater-delimiting.
* configure.ac: Quote the second arg of each AC_CHECK_LIB invocation.
