David Reiss 832b262aca Thrift: Revamp build to use a single configure.ac.
Summary:
Ben Maurer suggested that it would make sense for Thrift to build as
a single project, with one configure.ac and multiple Makefile.am.
He was also kind enough to do the heavy lifting, and this commit
is the application of his patch (with minor modifications).
The most significant visible change from this diff is that
in order to buidl one of the thrift sub-projects (i.e.: the compiler,
the C++ library, or the Python library) you must run bootstrap.sh
and configure in the Thrift root, then make in the specific project.
Users who want to build and install the Python library but
can't run configure because they don't have Boost can simply
run setup.py directly.

Test Plan: Built Thrift from scratch.

dnl @synopsis AX_LIB_EVENT([MINIMUM-VERSION])
dnl
dnl Test for the libevent library of a particular version (or newer).
dnl
dnl If no path to the installed libevent is given, the macro will first try
dnl using no -I or -L flags, then searches under /usr, /usr/local, /opt,
dnl and /opt/libevent.
dnl If these all fail, it will try the $LIBEVENT_ROOT environment variable.
dnl
dnl This macro requires that #include <sys/types.h> works and defines u_char.
dnl
dnl This macro calls:
dnl AC_SUBST(LIBEVENT_CPPFLAGS)
dnl AC_SUBST(LIBEVENT_LDFLAGS)
dnl AC_SUBST(LIBEVENT_LIBS)
dnl
dnl And (if libevent is found):
dnl AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LIBEVENT)
dnl
dnl It also leaves the shell variables "success" and "ax_have_libevent"
dnl set to "yes" or "no".
dnl
dnl NOTE: This macro does not currently work for cross-compiling,
dnl but it can be easily modified to allow it. (grep "cross").
