Executable that requires another executable #4

This is for example the use case of a compiler that requires a linker... but we don't GCC recipe yet in ConanCenter 😞

BUT, this happens for the autoconf, libtool, automake and m4 recipes... and they are in Conan Center. This is an example, already working one, we should reproduce in this POC.

The main issue here is that we would think a build_requires as the way to go (it doesn't modify the binary of the consumer), but build-requires are not propagated to consumers 🤔 https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index/pull/2197#issuecomment-658240993
