Subject: Drop the SConf.Foo variants for Configure checks

Manpage has documented two forms of calling configure checks for
a long time - as a function from the SConf module and as a method
of a configure context.  The former don't appear to work, so just
drop them. Separate commit so it's easy to revert.
