netcf: Fix build with newer autotools and gnulib

Newer gnulib use python implementation by default if it
finds py3 on the system. However, netcf is old package
and its not expecting python implementation, therefore
make the shell implementation be used.

REALLOC_N is gone in latest gnulib so house a local
macro

+Subject: [PATCH] netcf: fix bootstrap with newer gnulib/automake
+
+Upstream netcf is old enough that bootstrap/autoreconf now trips over:
+- gnulib-tool.py wrapper expectations in newer gnulib
+- stricter automake handling of AM_CFLAGS += from generated gnulib.mk
+- subdir source warnings
+- deprecated INCLUDES usage
