sys_types: avoid glibc 2.25 warnings about major()

glibc 2.25 is deprecating the namespace pollution of <sys/types.h>
injecting major(), minor(), and makedev() into the compilation
environment, with a warning that insists that users include
<sys/sysmacros.h> instead.  However, because the expansion of
AC_HEADER_MAJOR didn't bother checking sys/sysmacros.h until
after probing whether sys/types.h pollutes the namespace, it was
not defining MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS, with the result that code
compiled with -Werror chokes on the deprecation warnings because
it was not including sysmacros.h.

Backport the autoconf fix (see autoconf commit e17a30e98), so that
gnulib projects avoid the warnings even when using older autoconf.

* m4/sys_types_h.m4 (AC_HEADER_MAJOR): Replace broken version in
older autoconf.
* doc/posix-headers/sys_types.texi (sys/types.h): Document fix.
* doc/glibc-functions/gnu_dev_major.texi (gnu_dev_major): Likewise.
* doc/glibc-functions/gnu_dev_makedev.texi (gnu_dev_makedev): Likewise.
* doc/glibc-functions/gnu_dev_minor.texi (gnu_dev_minor): Likewise.
