Upgrade to Autoconf 2.61:

- Change configure.in to use Autoconf 2.61 and update generated files.
- Update build system and documentation to support now directory variables
  offered by Autoconf 2.61.
- Replace usages of PGAC_CHECK_ALIGNOF by AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF, now available
  in Autoconf 2.61.
- Drop our patched version of AC_C_INLINE, as Autoconf now has the change.
