> * New `%conf` spec section for build configuration

RPM documenation reads:

	In %conf, the unpacked sources are configured for building.

	Different build- and language ecosystems come with their own helper macros,
	but rpm has helpers for autotools based builds such as itself which
	typically look like this:

	%conf
	%configure

In context of autotools, sources usually bundle a configure script. To follow
the open source way (and ensure portability to new platform and include
autotools fixes), building from the real sources is desired. Hence I do my
best to call "autoreconf -fi" before %configure.

Where should autoreconf be placed? %pre or %conf?

    %prep               %prep
    %autosetup          %autosetup
                        autoreconf -fi
    
    %conf               %conf
    autoreconf -fi      %configure
    %configure

    %build              %build
    %make_build         %make_build

Please bear in mind that %prep usually contains other non-declarative twists
like pruning bundled code, correcting file permissions etc.
