#3793: sasl is deprecated on OS X 10.11 with Xcode 7.1.1

--------------------+----------------------
Well, this was unexpected. Building succeeded anyway, but I saw all of
the below-pasted warnings with Xcode 7.1.1 on OS X 10.11.
Eventually, Mac users are going to need to not just pass `--with-sasl`
anymore, but I am unsure of what our secure alternatives are. The cyrus-
sasl package, from their homepage, hasn't had a release in over three
years. Mutt's `configure --help` seems to indicate that *only* cyrus-sasl
will be accepted. (I tried GNU sasl with no luck).
I don't know how to tell whether OS X can use authentication methods such
as GSSAPI or CRAM-MD5 in the absence of `--with-sasl`, and even if it can,
how to force mutt to use it.
Any clues?
All the warnings look basically like the below, but for lots of different
functions and for both smtp and imap portions of code. I can post all of
them if you like.
