          autotools: Fix multiple repetitions of -L build flags

          Before:

            WS_LDFLAGS=' -Wl,--as-needed -L/usr/local/lib
     -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib'

          After:

            WS_LDFLAGS=' -Wl,--as-needed -L/usr/local/lib'

          Bumps autoconf required version to 2.64.


FWIW this means Wireshark master (to become 2.2) will no longer work on
RHEL/CentOS 6 (which has autoconf 2.63).  I don't seem to have an easy
way to check SLES.

(Just for the record) Anders' config.log shows that his SLES 11.2 system
is also running autoconf 2.63.

I noted that too, is it possible to easily update autoconf? (RPM?) Or
would that drag in all kinds of dependencies? Long term I�d like to push

my users to SLES 12.1 anyway.

Autoconf dependencies are Perl and GNU m4. Easiest would be to do a 'make dist' on a suitable system (SLES or not) and distribute the resulting tarball instead.

Regards

Anders
