SDL-2.0.3-Use-CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_DATAROOTDIR.patch

On cross hosts running autotools for SDL2_gfx-1.0.1 fails to find sdl2.m4:

eautoreconf: running in /var/tmp/paludis/build/media-libs-SDL2_gfx-1.0.1/work/SDL2_gfx-1.0.1 ...
aclocal
aclocal-1.13: warning: autoconf input should be named 'configure.ac', not 'configure.in'

      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
 * Failed Running autoconf !

SDL2 installs it to /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/share/aclocal on cross hosts, attached patch makes use of CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_DATAROOTDIR to support correctly installing to the arch independent location /usr/share/aclocal.
