Nothing in fedfs-utils uses libattr.so. The "*xattr" API lives in
glibc. The check for libattr.so in configure.ac adds an extraneous
package build dependency.

configure.ac should look for the presence of the attr/xattr.h header
instead, as that is what the fedfs-utils build requires.

Fixes: f5c16606 (configure.ac: check for presence of libattr)
