Autotest: make test dir writable before removing

[ On followups, you can remove libtool-patches; it's merely FYI there ]

Background: we are working on a test in Libtool which itself tries a
`make distcheck'.  A failure in the test leaves non-writable files.
The next test run fails to clean up the test dir due to unwritable
files.

This patch fixes that -- I'm not sure whether `chmod -R' is portable
enough though, but it's a lot less expensive than
  find $at_group_dir -exec chmod u+w \{\} \;
and I don't think you can expect file names within a test not to contain
white space.

Cheers,
Ralf

        * lib/autotest/general.m4 (AT_INIT): Make test dir content
        writable before removing.
