[Automake-NG] [PATCH 4/4] [ng] maintcheck: obsolete check 'sc_tests_no_configure_in' removed

[Stefano Lattarini]

There's no need to verify our tests doesn't use the obsoleted
name 'configure.in' for the Autoconf file anymore: we don't support
it anyway in Automake-NG, so any test trying to use it would fail.

* syntax-checks.mk (sc_tests_no_configure_in): Remove.
* tests/autodist-configure-no-subdir.sh: Remove unneeded occurrences
of 'configure.in'.

 ## on 'check' here, because that would be very wasteful in the common case.
 ## We could run "make check AM_LAZY_CHECK=yes" and avoid toplevel races with
