dnl @synopsis AX_CFLAGS_NO_WRITABLE_STRINGS [(shellvar [,default, [A/NA]])]
dnl
dnl Try to find a compiler option that makes all stringliteral
dnl readonly.
dnl
dnl The sanity check is done by looking at string.h which has a set of
dnl strcpy definitions that should be defined with const-modifiers to
dnl not emit a warning in all so many places.
dnl
dnl For the GNU CC compiler it will be -fno-writable-strings
dnl -Wwrite-strings The result is added to the shellvar being CFLAGS by
dnl default.
dnl
dnl DEFAULTS:
dnl
dnl  - $1 shell-variable-to-add-to : CFLAGS
dnl  - $2 add-value-if-not-found : nothing
dnl  - $3 action-if-found : add value to shellvariable
dnl  - $4 action-if-not-found : nothing
