Not quoting macro arguments that contain other macros is a big no-no in
Autoconf. It can break at any time.

./configure script checks now for the following programs:
* CC - using AC_PROG_CC
* AR - using AC_CHECK_TOOL among ar
* TAR - among gtar, tar
Checks not implemented:
* INSTALL - needs install-sh or install.sh in sources
* RPMBUILD - not known alternatives for rpmbuild
* PYTHON - no PYTHON variable in Makefile,
has to set NO_PYTHON if not present

./configure script checks now if the following libraries are present:
* -lssl for SHA1_Init (NO_OPENSSL)
* -lcurl for curl_easy_setopt (NO_CURL)
* -lexpat for XML_ParserCreate (NO_EXPAT)
It also checks if adding the following libraries are needed:
* -lcrypto for SHA1_Init (NEEDS_SSL_WITH_CRYPTO)
* -liconv for iconv (NEEDS_LIBICONV)
* -lsocket for socket (NEEDS_SOCKET)
Policy: we check also if NEEDS_LIBRARY libraries are present, even if
there is no NO_LIBRARY variable.

./configure script checks now for the following library functions:
* strcasestr (NO_STRCASESTR)
* strlcpy (NO_STRLCPY)
* setenv (NO_SETENV)
in default C library and in libraries which have AC_CHECK_LIB done for
them.
Checks not implemented:
* NO_MMAP - probably only via optional features configuration
* NO_IPV6 - what does "lack IPv6 support" mean?
* NO_ICONV - what does "properly support iconv" mean?

Prepares configure.ac to output autodetected and selected (by using
--with/--without and --enable/disable parameters to generated
./configure script) building configuration in "git style", i.e. by
appending appropriate variables to output file config.mak.autogen
(via temporary file config.mak.append).

Copy description of build configuration variables from the commentary
in the top Makefile (from 'next' branch) to configure.ac, splitting
them into "autoconf" sections.
This is to be able to easily check which build/install configuration
variables are covered by current configure.ac

This is beginning of patch series introducing installation configuration
using autoconf (and no other autotools) to git. The idea is to generate
config.mak.autogen using ./configure (generated from configure.ac by running
autoconf) from config.mak.in, so one can use autoconf as an _alternative_ to
ordinary Makefile, and creating one's own config.mak. Local settings in
config.mak override generated settings in config.mak.autogen
This patch includes minimal configure.ac and config.mak.in, so one can set
installation directories using autoconf generated ./configure script
e.g. ./configure --prefix=/usr
