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

Port: libssh2

Description

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
