libctf: update regexp to allow makeinfo to build document
While trying to build gdb on latest openSUSE Tumbleweed, I noticed the
following warning,
checking for makeinfo... makeinfo --split-size=5000000
configure: WARNING:
*** Makeinfo is too old. Info documentation will not be built.
then I checked the version of makeinfo, it said,
======
$ makeinfo --version
texi2any (GNU texinfo) 7.0.1

After digging a little bit, it became quite obvious that a dot is
missing in regexp that makes it impossible to match versions higher than
7.0, and here's the solution:
- | egrep 'texinfo[^0-9]*(6\.[3-9]|[7-9][0-9])' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
+ | egrep 'texinfo[^0-9]*(6\.[3-9]|[7-9]\.[0-9])' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
However, Eli pointed out that the solution above has another problem: it
will stop working when Texinfo 10.1 will be released. Meanwhile, he
suggested to solve this problem permanently. That is, we don't care
about the minor version for Texinfo > 6.9, we only care about the major
version.
In this way, the problem will be resolved permanently, thanks to Eli.
libctf/ChangeLog:
* configure: Regenerated.
* configure.ac: Update regexp to match versions higher than 7.0.
