configure: tidy up comments

- convert `#` comments to `dnl`, except copyright headers, and inline
  comments in `curl-complilers.m4`.
- drop empty comments.
- drop line-ending `dnl` markers. (except `zz40-xc-ovr.m4` where it's
  used to produce a comment in `configure`.)
- replace `dnl` line with C comment in `AC_CHECK_HEADERS()`.

Verified to produce the same `configure` script except empty lines,
`#` comments, and C comments, with autoreconf 2.72.

Cherry-picked from #21000

Closes #21246
