automake: do not require @setfilename in Texinfo files
Texinfo no longer requires a @setfilename directive in each .texi file, so automake now also relaxes its restriction. * bin/automake.in (scan_texinfo_file): Derive name of info file from name of input file if no @setfilename line occurs in the file. * t/txinfo-no-setfilename.sh: New test. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Add it. * NEWS: Mention it. Fixes automake bugs #36921 and #34201.
