If you're having trouble with the configure-time check for APR or CPPUNIT,
this will help. It'll also be useful in the long run, for when we're able
to compile out APR support altogether.
The default (--enable-apr) doesn't change anything, so there's no
need to use either option when running ./configure. Use --disable-apr
if/when you want to skip all configure-time tests for libapr, which
means you won't compile with or link with any APR bits.

* configure.ac: Add new configure-time options:
--enable-apr (default), --disable-apr.
