The `<stddef.h>` header file is part of the standard C89 headers [1] and
on current systems there is no need for a manual check if header is
present.
Since PHP requires at least C89 the `HAVE_STDDEF_H` symbol isn't defined
by Autoconf anywhere else anymore [2] and accross the PHP source code
the header is included unconditionally already.
This patch syncs this also for the bundled libmbfl which is maintaned as
a fork in php-src.

Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems, including the AC_FUNC_UTIME_NULL.
This macro checks if `utime(file, NULL)` sets file's timestamp to the
current time and defines the `HAVE_UTIME_NULL` symbol. This check was
relevant on very old systems (for example, 4.3BSD released in 1986) and
today can be omitted for systems with utime since it should be well
supported by now. [2]

Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems anymore, including the `AC_FUNC_MEMCMP`.
On some old systems such as SunOS 4.1.3 (EOL in 2003) and NeXT x86
OpenStep (discontinued) the `memcmp` function wasn't present or it
didn't work properly. [2]
On current systems including at least Solaris 10+ this check is not
relevant anymore.

Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems anymore, including the `AC_HEADER_DIRENT`.
This macro checks which header defines the `DIR` type. If `<dirent.h>`
is available it defines the `HAVE_DIRENT_H` symbol. Since the `<dirent.h>`
header is already checked in the `configure.ac`, this check is not needed
anymore. This macro also additionally checks for SCO Xenix (discontinued,
latest release 1989) dir and x libraries. [2]
Commit 6ed790685f introduced also
`<sys/dir.h>`. This header exists from times of UNIX System V and
provided definition of DIR type on these systems such as 4.3BSD.
Today `<sys/dir.h>` is kept for backwards compatibility and includes
the `<dirent.h>` on current systems. With `dirent.h>` present this
include is no longer required.

??= is a trigraph for #, so it needs to be escaped. To stay
consistent I'm escaping all question marks in this literal, even
though one of the latter two would suffice.
