 This ticket is about changing the internal configure/install logic, not
 about changing behaviour.

 "gcc" is a special Sage package because it's currently the only package
 which is either installed in Sage or used from the system if it's
 available.

 In the future, we probably want more packages like this. It makes sense to
 mark all these packages as "standard" with some logic in `configure.ac` to
 skip the installation of certain standard packages.

 I propose to define a ''standard package'' as a package which will always
 be available in Sage, either installed by Sage or taken from the system.
