[FYI] {maint} docs: minor cosmetic fixes


From: Stefano Lattarini
Subject: [FYI] {maint} docs: minor cosmetic fixes

User-agent: KMail/1.13.3 (Linux/2.6.30-2-686; KDE/4.4.4; i686; ; )

* doc/automake.texi: Break few overly long lines, throughout the
file.
("Simple Tests"): Move @vindex for XFAIL_TESTS to the correct
position, i.e., before and not after the paragraph where it is
introduced.
("Options" @item ansi2knr): Don't user @xref where @pxref should
be used instead.  This fixes a texinfo warning.
("Other things Automake recognizes" @item AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Don't
@ref where @pxref should be used instead.
