Enable Fortan Ada, optionally #11

@kas1e says that Fortran works. So does ADA.

Test this out - check it also builds with 'native-install' makefile target. Enable an option in the Makefile to build these. We probably do not want to do this by default if it increases the build time too much.

@3246251196 Enabling Fortran surely increase compiling speed a lot (when i tried in the past, it take pretty much more time). Also almost no one use Fortran or ADA on OS4 for any real programming , so it all mostly matter of funny check. But maybe worth to note in some main readme , that if you need Fortran you can enable by just providing fortran to --enable-languages in configure.

I also tried objc and obj-c++ - they also compiles fine in (which i do not remember if we have enabled by default?). Maybe also worth note that it can be inbuild in.

From another side, for things like Dockers or ready images, etc, where time of compilation of the whole adtools make no differences for end users, it can be build with everything, imho. But .. we just can't support it all in the way we all support C and C++ due limited resources and interest, imho.

@walkero-gr Do you know if we need ObjC for webkit, or can we get away without it?
