This PR enables cpython to cross-build on VxWorks RTOS. As part of the whole effort, this PR only aims at achieving some basic support including most of built-in modules, os and subprocess modules. More and full support will continuously added by the coming PRs.
VxWorks is a product developed and owned by Wind River. For VxWorks introduction or more details, go to https://www.windriver.com/products/vxworks/
Wind River will have a dedicated engineering team to contribute to the support as maintainers.
We already have a working buildbot worker internally, but has not bound to master. We will check the process for the buildbot, then add it.

The main reason are:
1. The locale is frequently misconfigured.
2. Missing some functions to deal with locale in VxWorks C library.
Redefine autoconf m4 macro for:
1. Passing compiler check
2. Passing lib and function search check
Modify configure.ac for VxWorks and generate new configure
…ompiler driver, python doesn't need that changes after switching to use the compiler driver.

This PR is too big, it must be splitted into smaller parts:

  • UTF-8 encoding
  • subprocess + _vxapi module
  • time changes: clock, mktime, etc.
  • other misc changes: DELIM, configure, etc.

I'm interested to review the first one, UTF-8/encoding changes ;-)
