Define AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE with AC_DEFUN.

Some widely used Automake recipes involve putting AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE
at top level of a configure script, and it uses AC_REQUIRE now, so it
needs to be defined with AC_DEFUN.

* lib/autoconf/general.m4 (AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE): Define with AC_DEFUN.
* tests/torture.at (Missing auxiliary files (foreign)): New test.
