octavePackages.windows: Run autoreconf hook on compiled sources 

These sources include leftover config.guess and config.sub scripts
generated by upstream maintainer's bootstrap script. Their bootstrap
script uses wget to grab config.guess and config.sub files, which we
cannot do inside the Nix build environment. So we forcibly remove the
config.* scripts and run autoreconf ourselves (through
autoreconfHook).
