Subject: [PATCH] removal of LegacyVersion broke ax_python_dev.m4

The 22.0 release of the python `packaging` package removed the
`LegacyVersion` trait, causing ZFS to no longer compile.

This commit replaces the sections of `ax_python_dev.m4` that rely on
`LegacyVersion` with updated implementations from the upstream
`autoconf-archive`.
