The following build failure is raised since bump of autoconf to version
2.71 in commit ecd54b65c1f998a7ccd91f7c523e4ff38c4781da and
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf.git;a=commit;h=dd880a0a6de5602cdd40b770ed6b083b34aa0768:

Can't exec "gtkdocize": No such file or directory at /home/buildroot/autobuild/instance-1/output-1/host/share/autoconf/Autom4te/FileUtils.pm line 293.
autoreconf: error: gtkdocize failed with exit status: 2

This failure is raised because autoreconf runs gtkdocize if configure.ac
contains GTK_DOC_CHECK, so set GTKDOCIZE to true in pkg-autotools to fix
this issue for all affected packages (i.e. host-libgtk3, libtasn1,
raptor, etc.). Indeed, gtk-doc is already forcefully disabled in
pkg-autotools through --disable-gtk-doc configure flag.

Fixes:
