Make bootstrap a little more general.

* bootstrap (build_aux): Factor out/use this definition.
Formally require a "AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR($build_aux)" line in configure.ac.
(insert_sorted_if_absent): Move function definition "up", to
precede new first use.
If $build_aux/ doesn't exist initially, create it, and
mark it as ignored.
