[tlbuild] problems with synctex - warning to others

Hi all,

here two warnings concerning the new synctex in 2018:
* it changes API without bumping so (synctex_nex_result is renamed!)
* synctex_version.h is not installed anymore

Other distributors or builders, please be aware.

Especially the first item is a real problem for those building shared
libraries.

I don't know how I will fix it, but in Debian it is already creating
havoc because all other packages depending on libsynctex just start to
fail to build from source, great!

Thanks

Norbert
