autoclear now in reconciliation

[Christopher Lam]

Hi there was prior discussion
https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2010-January/027281.html
about this.
It was present for years under Action > Auto-clear. Very recently it was
overhauled and is now fast.
Please try a recent nightly and feed back any issues.
