#49827: libssh2: configure failure when nawk is installed but gawk is not

--------------------------+----------------------
 libssh2 fails to configure when nawk is installed but gawk is not:

 {{{
 config.status: creating src/libssh2_config.h
 nawk: illegal statement
  input record number 1, file src/libssh2_config.h.in
  source line number 50
 config.status: error: could not create src/libssh2_config.h
 }}}

 Similar errors are common in other ports. I guess many ports' build
 systems use awk syntax that is not compatible with nawk.

 We've been fixing this in other ports by adding a configure argument like:

 {{{
 ac_cv_prog_AWK=/usr/bin/awk
 }}}
