[PATCH util/macros] Add XORG_DEFAULT_NOCODE_OPTIONS and bump version to 1.20.0

[Alan Coopersmith]

Allows data, doc, & font modules that don't compile any code
to avoid spending time running a bunch of compiler tests whose
results they'll ignore and never use.

I've submitted https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/util/macros/-/merge_requests/3
for this, but am mailing it out for higher visibility as it seems few people
look at merge requests for the outlying repos.

Tested by replacing XORG_DEFAULT_OPTIONS with XORG_GEFAULT_NOCODE_OPTIONS in
data/*, doc/*, and font/* (except font/utils which does compile programs) and
then running build.sh and verifying all the projects built with GNU autotools
still built correctly and the updated projects no longer ran all the compiler
checks.

This could also be applied to util/cf, but as that has a release out with
meson.build included for testing already, the next step there is to remove
configure.ac not improve it.

Oops, I misremembered, the meson support is merged but not yet released,
so I'd add this change to its release for the sake of people building
with autoconf in the final release before it's removed in favor of meson.
