configure: Avoid deprecated AC_PROG_CC_C99 if possible.

Browse Source 
autoconf 2.70 deprecated the AC_PROG_CC_C99 macro and the AC_PROG_CC
was recommended for use instead.  However, older versions of that
suggested macro do not attempt enabling C99, so it is not a direct
replacement.  Autoconf 2.69 and older are still widely used in many
distributions.

Another difference is that AC_PROG_CC attempts to enable C11 in new
versions of autoconf.  But since we have CI jobs that check -std=c99
builds now, we can afford enabling C11 by default without risking
compatibility issues.

Fix a deprecation warning by using a new AC_PROG_CC macro with
autoconf 2.70+.  AC_PROG_CC and AC_PROG_CC_C99 seems to produce the
same configuration script in autoconf 2.70+ anyway, so we're already
kind of using a new macro on systems with a new autoconf.
