Request #26504 phpize should check to see if autoconf is installed and offer a better warning

Description:
------------
If one doesn't have automake installed, attempts to run phpize  just emit "/usr/local/bin/phpize[57]: aclocal: not found", which isn't particularly helpful.

It'd be helpful to check to see if aclocal is installed before trying to execute it, ideally emitting a useful error message if it's not there.

Forgot to mention that the same problem exists with autoconf.
