[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] small build improvements for xf86-video-intel

Hi all,

Here are 3 patches for the intel driver. The first two are just
autotools cleanups to bring them up to date.

The third one adds a configure switch for the fake i810 man page and the
i810_drv.so symlink.

I've had plenty of Gentoo users (including myself) telling me that
xserver 1.5 with libpciaccess support would no longer load "i810".
Changing xorg.conf to load "intel" of course fixed the issue.

While one could even argue such symlinks can be removed after such a
long transition period, I've gone with a configure switch (which still
defaults to the current behavior)

Thanks
