Fix use of -fvisibility=hidden with Clang in external/libcdr, external/libqxp
At least on macOS x86-64 you get a warning
> [build LNK] Library/libwpftdrawlo.dylib
> ld: warning: direct access in function 'std::__1::__shared_ptr_pointer<librevenge::RVNGInputStream*, std::__1::shared_ptr<librevenge::RVNGInputStream>::__shared_ptr_default_delete<librevenge::RVNGInputStream, librevenge::RVNGInputStream>, std::__1::allocator<librevenge::RVNGInputStream> >::__get_deleter(std::type_info const&) const' from file 'workdir/UnpackedTarball/libzmf/src/lib/.libs/libzmf-0.0.a(ZMFDocument.o)' to global weak symbol 'typeinfo for std::__1::shared_ptr<librevenge::RVNGInputStream>::__shared_ptr_default_delete<librevenge::RVNGInputStream, librevenge::RVNGInputStream>' from file 'workdir/UnpackedTarball/libcdr/src/lib/.libs/libcdr-0.1.a(CDRDocument.o)' means the weak symbol cannot be overridden at runtime. This was likely caused by different translation units being compiled with different visibility settings.
The reason is that libzmf uses -fvisibility=hidden and generates

The reason for that error is as follows:
workdir/UnpackedTarball/libcdr/configure.ac uses, among other things, the result
of
AX_GCC_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE([visibility])
when deciding whether to use -fvisibility=hidden. And the old ("serial 5")
workdir/UnpackedTarball/libcdr/m4/ax_gcc_func_attribute.m4 decides "no" if its
test compilation generates any warning output. But Clang on macOS generates
> conftest.cpp:34:56: warning: target does not support 'protected' visibility; using 'default' [-Wunsupported-visibility]
> int foo_pro( void ) __attribute__((visibility("protected")));
> ^
and lots of
> conftest.cpp:2:9: warning: macro is not used [-Wunused-macros]
> #define PACKAGE_NAME "libcdr"
> ^
(because of -Wunused-macros set for Clang in
solenv/gbuild/platform/com_GCC_defs.mk).
Same issue with external/libqxp, which would cause

> ld: warning: direct access in function 'std::__1::__shared_ptr_pointer<librevenge::RVNGInputStream*, std::__1::shared_ptr<librevenge::RVNGInputStream>::__shared_ptr_default_delete<librevenge::RVNGInputStream, librevenge::RVNGInputStream>, std::__1::allocator<librevenge::RVNGInputStream> >::__get_deleter(std::type_info const&) const' from file 'workdir/UnpackedTarball/libcdr/src/lib/.libs/libcdr-0.1.a(CDRDocument.o)' to global weak symbol 'typeinfo for std::__1::shared_ptr<librevenge::RVNGInputStream>::__shared_ptr_default_delete<librevenge::RVNGInputStream, librevenge::RVNGInputStream>' from file 'workdir/UnpackedTarball/libqxp/src/lib/.libs/libqxp-0.0.a(QXPMacFileParser.o)' means the weak symbol cannot be overridden at runtime.

detection of unknown attributes", even though it was apparently meant to fix
something different, nicely fixes this Clang issue, making AX_GCC_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE
correctly detect support for visibility now.
When building with Clang on Linux, there is no -Wunsupported-visibility about
__attribute__((visibility("protected"))), but all the -Wunused-macros are
present as well, which caused all the AX_GCC_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE checks to be mis-
detected as "no" there, too.
There are more uses of AX_GCC_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE in
workdir/UnpackedTarball/libcdr/configure.ac and
workdir/UnpackedTarball/libqxp/configure.ac, and there are many more
workdir/UnpackedTarball/*/m4/ax_gcc_func_attribute.m4 in other external projects,
all of which may cause similar AX_GCC_FUNC_ATTRIBUTE mis-detections. However,
they do not cause any noticeable traces like the "direct access" ld warning here,
so I left those alone for now. (Ultimately, all the upstream external projects
should probably deploy the latest version of ax_gcc_func_attribute.m4 from
<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf-archive.git;a=blob_plain;
f=m4/ax_gcc_func_attribute.m4>.)
