[PATCH v2] m4: make serial numbers effective

[Sam James]

Similar to a reported issue in gnulib: 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2024-04/msg00051.html.

Adhrere to the M4 serial file format documented at 
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Serials.html.

* m4/bison-check-compiler-flag.m4: Make formatting consistent.
* m4/bison-cxx-std.m4: Make serial number effective.
* m4/bison-i18n.m4: Ditto.
* m4/flex.m4: Ditto.

Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes

v2: Crank serial number for changes too. This makes life a lot easier if
    trying to detect changes because you can assume that sensible macros
    map serial:checksum 1:1. Thanks to Eric Gallager for reporting.
