Omit just-added *_REQUIRED macros

They are not needed for Gnulib, and users have an easy way to get
their effect, so for now omit them and just document the easy way.
Also, redo documentation to make it clear that AC_YEAR_2038 is
like AC_SYS_LARGEFILE except with a different year-2038 default.
* NEWS, doc/autoconf.texi: Document the above.
* lib/autoconf/specific.m4 (AC_SYS_YEAR2038_REQUIRED):
(AC_SYS_LARGEFILE_REQUIRED): Remove.  Remove some support code.
Perhaps further simplification could be done but I quit while
I was ahead.
