jq: Use Git to fetch the code

There is a bug (see https://github.com/jqlang/jq/issues/434), which
results in an empty version being used if autoreconf is run on the jq
sources when using a release tar ball. The incorrect assumption is that
autoreconf is only used when fetching the code using Git.

The empty version results in an incorrect libjq.pc file being created
where the version is not set, which results in, e.g.,
`pkgconf --libs 'libjq > 1.6'` failing even if version 1.8.1 of jq is
actually installed.

Switch to fetching the code using Git to workaround the bug.

+Subject: [PATCH] Support building with --disable-maintainer-mode and source !=
+ build dir
+
+If --disable-maintainer-mode is enabled, then the rules for generating
+parser.[ch] and lexer.[ch] did nothing. This worked fine if the source
+and build directories are the same as the pre-generated parser.c and
+lexer.c files would suffice. However, if the build directory is not the
+same as the source directory, then the rest of the Make rules expect
+parser.[ch] and lexer.[ch] to have been created in the build directory
+if their source files (parser.y and lexer.l) are newer than the target
+files, which can happen in case the source is fetched using Git.
+
+Avoid the problem by copying the files to the build directory if needed.
+
+Upstream-Status: Submitted [https://github.com/jqlang/jq/pull/3518/changes/282619d60d42c193ddce1095b34469e14dbe87b6]
