[Libguestfs] [PATCH libguestfs] build: revive the ocaml package tests

This reinstates the autogen.sh-based test for the two
required ocaml packages.

I've tested it by running autoconf.sh first with neither
of the two packages installed, then with only ocaml-xml-light
installed.  In both cases, autogen.sh failed as required.
When both were installed, it worked as expected.

Subject: [PATCH libguestfs] build: revive the ocaml package tests

* autogen.sh: Generalize the ocaml-package-existence test.
Remove the git-related part of the old test.
