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
