Bump autoconf requirement to 2.71 to allow regenerating configure on
more recent distributions. autoconf 2.71 has been in Fedora since F36
and is the current version in Debian stable (bookworm). It appears to
be current in Gentoo as well.
All sysdeps configure and preconfigure scripts have also been
regenerated; all changes are trivial transformations that do not affect
functionality.

PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN indicates whether accesses to internal linkage
variables and hidden visibility variables in a shared object (ld.so)
need dynamic relocations (usually R_*_RELATIVE). PI (position
independent) in the macro name is a misnomer: a code sequence using GOT
is typically position-independent as well, but using dynamic relocations
does not meet the requirement.
Not defining PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN is legacy and we expect that all new
ports will define PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN. Current ports defining
PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN are more than the opposite. Change the configure
default.
No functional change.
