libxml2 check in configure is incorrect

The check for the headers for libxml2 uses an incorrect path.

If you build libxml2 using its default settings, then the headers are
installed as:

<prefix>/include/libxml2/libxml/

but configure checks for:

<prefix>/include/libxml

This causes OpenDKIM to incorrectly fail while trying to detect the
presence of libxml2. I would suggest an "elif" so that things can be
correctly found, along the following lines (to configure.ac):

                elif test -f $xml2path/include/libxml2/libxml/parser.h
                then
                        AC_MSG_RESULT($xml2path)
                        xml2_found="yes"
                        LIBXML2_CPPFLAGS="-I$xml2path/include/libxml2"
                        LIBXML2_LDFLAGS="-I$xml2path/lib"
                        LIBXML2_LIBS="-lxml2"


My guess is most distributions change the default installation behavior of
libxml2.
