The minimum autoconf-archive version that we require to build libqmi
from git is 2017.03.21.

The previous release, 20160916, makes autogen fail like this:
$ NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4
/usr/bin/m4:configure.ac:66: recursion limit of 1024 exceeded, use
-L<N> to change it
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal: error: echo failed with exit status: 1
autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1
