[svn-r26382] Merge r26289 from autotools_rework branch to trunk:

Purpose:

    Fix HDFFV-9124 - Remove old libtool post-processing
    
Description:
 
    This revision removes some post-processing of the generated libtool
    script, which was added back in 2003 (see svn revisions 6285 and 6293)
    to address a deficiency in which the script failed to set the '$wl'
    variable for icc and pgcc compilers. Libtool has since fixed the issue,
    and the post-processing we've been running has essentially been a no-op
    for years, so it's safe for us to remove the post-processing snippet.
    
Tested:

    Jam using pgcc and icc compilers.
