Stefano Lattarini 560f16b52d general: deprecate 'configure.in' as autoconf input
It has been years since that has been deprecated in the documentation,
in favour of 'configure.ac':

  Previous versions of Autoconf promoted the name configure.in, which
  is somewhat ambiguous (the tool needed to process this file is not
  described by its extension), and introduces a slight confusion with
  config.h.in and so on (for which '.in' means "to be processed by
  configure"). Using configure.ac is now preferred.

It's now time to start giving runtime warning about the use of
'configure.in', so that support for it can be removed in future
versions of autoconf/automake.

* lib/Autom4te/Configure_ac.pm: Issue a warning in the 'obsolete'
category if 'configure.in' is detected.  Since this module is synced
from Automake, this change is to be backported there (and will be
soon).
* doc/autoconf.texi: Update.
* tests/tools.at: Adjust to avoid spurious failures.
