The patch tool will apply patches by default with "fuzz", which is where if the
hunk context isn't present but what is there is close enough, it will force the
patch in.
Whilst this is useful when there's just whitespace changes, when applied to
source it is possible for a patch applied with fuzz to produce broken code which
still compiles (see #10450). This is obviously bad.
We'd like to eventually have do_patch() rejecting any fuzz on these grounds. For
that to be realistic the existing patches with fuzz need to be rebased and
reviewed.

This reverts commit 3632abd01abb8dfff230e18f828af705da488f97.
Multiple people have expressed issues with flex-2.6.2; personally I had
problems compiling libsepol from meta-selinux (for libselinux). I tried
upgrading to flex-2.6.3, but that caused binutils-cross_2.27 to fail.
The simplest for now is to downgrade to flex-2.6.0.

Patches dropped as they are merged upstream:
- CVE-2016-6354.patch
- 0002-avoid-c-comments-in-c-code-fails-with-gcc-6.patch
- do_not_create_pdf_doc.patch
Apply a patch from github to simplify cross-compilation and not need a
flex-native to bootstrap.

Drop backported 0001-bison-test-fixes-Do-not-use-obsolete-bison-construct.patch
Test cases have been completely rearranged upstream, so ptest support
is fully rewritten.
Merge split bb/inc as there's no other user of the .inc [RB]
As automake insists adding BUILD_SOURCES as a dependency to the "all" target,
remove tests/ from the build unless ptests are enabled. This means native
builds don't need a bison dependency. If ptests are enabled, we build-depend on
flex-native and bison-native for the test suite, and tell it to use the
flex-native binary instead of attempting to run the cross flex it just
built. [RB]
Move in-tree files from files/ to flex/ for consistency. [RB]
