    ltmain.in: Replace old warnings with documentation
    
    Without the ability to disable these old warnings individually, they
    are migrating to the relevant section of the documentation to inform
    new users that may not know. These warnings have been present for
    two decades, so existing users should be aware of this functionality.
    
    * build-aux/ltmain.in: Remove old warnings.
    * doc/libtool.texi: Document contents of warning messages.
