Peter Kokot ef12e96215 Remove AC_FUNC_VPRINTF
Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) 1 started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems anymore, including the AC_FUNC_VPRINTF.

This macro checks for presence of the vprint function otherwise checks
for presence of the _doprnt function. This check was relevant on very
old systems and today can be omitted since it should be well supported
by now. [2]

Also PHP doesn't use the HAVE_VPRINTF or HAVE_DOPRNT symbols.

PHP 7.4 INTERNALS UPGRADE NOTES
1. Internal API changes
a. php_sys_symlink() and php_sys_link()
b. zend_lookup_class_ex() and zend_fetch_class_by_name()
2. Build system changes
a. Unix build system changes
b. Windows build system changes
3. Module changes
========================
1. Internal API changes
========================
a. php_sys_symlink() and php_sys_link() portability macros have been
added, which behave like POSIX's symlink() and link(), respectively, on
POSIX compliant systems and on Windows.
b. zend_lookup_class_ex() and zend_fetch_class_by_name() prototypes were
changed to accept optional lower-case class name as zend_string*,
instead of zval*.
========================
2. Build system changes
========================
a. Unix build system changes
- configure --help now also outputs --program-suffix and --program-prefix
information by using the Autoconf AC_ARG_PROGRAM macro.
- Obsolescent macro AC_FUNC_VPRINTF has been removed and the HAVE_VPRINTF
symbol is no longer defined since it is not needed on current systems.
b. Windows build system changes
========================
3. Module changes
========================
