[Pkg-libburnia-devel] Bug#732719: libisoburn: use dh-autoreconf for better new-port coverage

Hi,

The ppc64el port requires a patch to libtool.m4.  I don't think that's
in Debian yet, but when it is it will require autoreconfing a bunch of
packages to pick it up.  libisoburn could handle this quite easily by
using dh-autoreconf rather than just autotools-dev; when automake and
libtool are in use (as they are here), dh-autoreconf is a superset of
autotools-dev, and it seems to still build just fine if I do the
following.

  * Use dh-autoreconf to update libtool macros for new ports.
