Probe for preadv/pwritev in a more macOS-friendly way.

Apple's mechanism for dealing with functions that are available
in only some OS versions confuses AC_CHECK_FUNCS, and therefore
AC_REPLACE_FUNCS.  We can use AC_CHECK_DECLS instead, so long as
we enable -Werror=unguarded-availability-new.  This allows people
compiling for macOS to control whether or not preadv/pwritev are
used by setting MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET, rather than supplying
a back-rev SDK.  (Of course, the latter still works, too.)
