build: strengthen the C++ standard flag test

On the CI, we have this spurious failure with clang 3.9 with
-std=c++17:

    In file included from list.y:23:
    In file included from /usr/include/c++/4.8/iostream:39:

    /usr/include/c++/4.8/cstdio:120:11: error: no member named 'gets' in the global namespace
      using ::gets;
            ~~^

This shows that our test, based on gl_WARN_ADD, is a joke.  We have to
really check for at least a bit of C++.

* m4/ax_check_compile_flag.m4, m4/bison-cxx-std.m4: New.
* configure.ac: Use them to make sure the compiler actually works.
