gnu: autoconf: Support cross-build.
Autoconf does not cross-built properly: it lacks the concept of <tool>-for-build. It runs the host `autom4te' (a perl script) during build. * gnu/packages/autotools.scm (autoconf)[inputs]: Add bash-minimal, perl, and m4. To avoid triggering a rebuild, do this while cross-compiling only. [arguments]: When cross-building, add `patch-non-shebang-references' phase to substitute the host bash, m4 and perl.
