bin/mconfig: new "-X FILE" option
Packages can use this option to list symbols that shouldn't bring in the
corresponding units. For example, Perl need not provide support for BSD
index(3) as an alternative to C89 strchr(3), but "index" is the name of a
Perl builtin, so that string in the source files is misunderstood by
metaconfig as an attempt to use the BSD function.
With this change, Perl can deal with this situation by adding "index" (and
"rindex") to an exclusion list.

U/modified/d_strchr.U: add stub unit
The Perl core now wants to rely on C89 strchr() and strrchr(), so needn't
attempt to use BSD index() and rindex() as a fallback.
This is almost trivial: Perl can simplify use those functions directly.
However, metaconfig's standard dist/U/d_strchr.U unit says that the C code
should guard uses of index() and rindex() with the HAS_INDEX cpp symbol. But
"index" and "rindex" are also Perl builtins, so they appear in files like
opcode.h and keywords.c. This causes metaconfig to (a) warn you that they
were used without the HAS_INDEX guard, and (b) include the strchr/index
probe in the generated Configure anyway.
Work around this by creating a locally-modified stub d_strchr unit that
never actually does anything.

For Perl, assume C89 prototypes exist
Perl now relies on C89, including prototypes. However, it must continue to
define CAN_PROTOTYPE for the benefit of XS modules. So the Perl-specific
modified version of U/modified/prototype.U is now a stub that probes for
nothing, but still overrides the dist/ version of prototype.U (which would
otherwise find the remaining CAN_PROTOTYPE occurrences in the core and
include the probe anyway).
In addition, the Protochk unit itself looks at CAN_PROTOTYPE, and is used by
many other units. So create a modified version which doesn't do that.
