When packages using gtk-doc are autoreconfigured, aclocal complains
because it cannot find the macros defined in gtk-doc.m4. We could
compile the gtk-doc package for the host, but it depends on
gnome-doc-utils, which depends on libxml2, libxslt, and other packages
as well.
Since we don't care about the documentation, all is needed is in fact
the gtk-doc.m4, so that the configure script can be generated, and we
can use the --disable-gtk-doc to not generate the documentation.
To solve this, we include a gtk-doc.m4 file in package/automake/, and
it gets installed in $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/aclocal/ during the
installation of the host automake (used for autoreconfiguration of
packages).

We have been passing -q to ./configure when using 'make -s' for
packages using Makefile.autotools.in for some time. Do the same
for packages using autotools, but not using the
Makefile.autotools.in infrastructure, taking care to not do it
for packages with hand written configure scripts.

A C library will have been built by the toolchain makefiles, so there is no
need for packages to explicitly depend on uclibc.

Revert r25827 and instead copy over the host aclocal files of the stuff
needed for auto* (libtool + pkgconfig). These logically belong with the
target stuff, as they are used for the target auto* toolchain.
Long term we should probably consider using
aclocal --acdir=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/aclocal, so the host .m4 files
cannot interfere with the target build.
they should be configured with --prefix=/usr and we then need to use
make DESTDIR=$(STAGING_DIR) install to get things installed into the
staging directory. The current situation for many packages, which use
--prefix=$(STAGING_DIR) results in the staging_dir paths getting compiled
into the binary itself.
This also adds in a pile of libtool fixups. Between broken pkgconfig,
broken libtool handling, and broken --prefix settings, its a wonder
things have worked as well as they have up till now.
