configure: Disable building libcrypt by default
We mentioned eventual dropping of libcrypt in the 2.28 NEWS. Actually put that plan in motion by first disabling building libcrypt by default. note in NEWS that the library will be dropped completely in a future release. Also add a couple of builds into build-many-glibcs.py. Signed-off-by: Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org> Reviewed-by: Andreas K. Hüttel <dilfridge@gentoo.org>
