Remove dependency to autoconf-archive
It is generally not a good idea to add more and more external dependencies unless absolutely needed. autoconf-archive is a good example of that, as we need to update all build machines, and older OpenEmbedded versions do not appear to have (the right?) autoconf-archive recipe. Provide local copy of necessary m4 files to fix the build there. The dependency to autoconf-archive was introduced in Change-Id Ied9c950dafa65f324cf31298b13b590f56139700 Change-Id: Iacc1958b471ec3fc65307259039e1d496845f528
