Remove makeinfo

The port has USES=makeinfo which helps to build the info files but the distfile
ships with pre built info files in ${WRKSRC}/info hence makeinfo is not a hard
requirement for the building of emacs itself. And the build time error can
easily be avoided with BINARY_ALIAS to makeinfo.

As we are utilizing the default info files instead of the generated info hence
bumping PORTREVISION.
