socat: upgrade to 1.7.2.4

socat manually maintains config.h.in instead of using autoheader, so exclude
autoheader from autoreconf and remove all patches that are intended to enable
use of autoheader.

The license checksum changed, because the company address changed.

Based on a upgrade by Hongxu Jia <hongxu.jia@windriver.com>, with cleanup after
noticing that config.h.in was hand-maintained.

(From OE-Core rev: ea3ec30c19af23f6b62ce3d4d9d42c1fcb23a215)

+Fix build during cross-compilation as it fails to detect that our prefixed
+compiler is gcc, and falls back to executing code to determine type sizes:
+
+| configure: using code run method to find basic types
+| checking for equivalent simple type of size_t...
+| configure: error: in `/data/poky-master/tmp/work/core2-32-poky-linux/socat/1.7.2.4-r0/build':
+| configure: error: cannot run test program while cross compiling
+
+This is caused by configure.in assuming that $CC can be literally compared with
+"gcc" to determine if the compiler is GCC.  Our gcc is host-prefixed so this
+test fails, however autoconf provides $GCC for this purpose (which was used up
+to 1.7.2.3).
