[OPEN-ILS-DEV] OpenSRF autotools support

[Kevin Beswick]

This patch adds GNU autotools support to the OpenSRF project.

By having autotools support, one can generate the appropriate
configure script and Makefiles for OpenSRF by running automake and
autoconf. They can then configure, compile and install OpenSRF by
running the generated files. The configure script checks dependencies,
sets install locations, compiler flags, install options, etc, and
transfers those settings to the Makefiles.

To prepare the package (add missing files etc), generate makefiles and
configure script, run the following commands:
aclocal
libtoolize --force
automake -a
automake
autoconf

To configure, compile, and install, run the following commands:
./configure
make
make install


Custom options included in configure script:

--enable-install-java    #enable building and installing the java libraries
--disable-legacy-json    #disable the legacy json headers and .so file
for backwards compatibility
--disable-install-python  #disable building and installing python modules
--with-tmp_dir=path              #location for the tmp dir for openSRF
(/tmp/ilstemp by default)
--with-apxs_dir=path             #location of apxs2 (default is /usr/bin/apxs2)
--with-apache_headers=path       #location of the apache2 headers
(default is /usr/include/apache2)
--with-apr_headers=path           #location of the apr headers
(default is /usr/include/apr-1.0/)
--with-libxml_headers=path         #location of the libxml headers
(default is /usr/include/libxml2/)
