** [issues:#5831] Modularize `aclocal.m4`**

In standard GNU projects, the `aclocal.m4` file gets auto-generated with the 
`aclocal` script; the necessary M4 scripts are either taken from the system or 
from a directory that gets specified with some
command line options to `aclocal`.

Looking into the git history of LilyPond's `aclocal.m4` file I can see that 
this was true in the very beginning.  However, later on people started to 
modify this file manually.  Was this intentional?

I suggest to use `aclocal` again, modularizing the current stuff in 
`aclocal.m4` by splitting it into various `.m4` files in a `m4` top-level 
subdirectory.
