Migrated to newer autotools. Also, don't install mkbimage
because its name is too general and it does not conform to the
GNU Coding Standards in some points.

* configure.in: Removed.
* configure.ac: New file. Mostly derived from configure.in.
Add a workaround for buggy BIOSes which don't pass boot drive
correctly. The idea is that GRUB forces the fixed disk flag
when booted from a hard disk. When BIOS loads GRUB directly,
the boot drive must be either of 0x00 and 0x80, so this should
work, if those BIOSes always pass zero to %dl. AFAIK, this
assumption is always correct.
* stage2/builtins.c (install_func): Store the fixed disk flag of
the destination drive in BOOT_DRIVE_MASK in Stage 1.
* stage1/stage1.h (STAGE1_BOOT_DRIVE_MASK): New macro.
* stage1/stage1.S (boot_drive_mask): New variable. It is or'ed
to %dl.
* stage1/stage1.S: Don't call INT 13, AH=48H, because it is
difficult to call this function with the workaround implemented
in the previous change due to the size limit of Stage 1.
(lba_mode) [NO_BUGGY_BIOS_IN_THE_WORLD]: Don't check the
geometry explicitly. This shouldn't be harmful, as INT 13,
AH=42H should take care of it, and if you cannot read Stage 2
even with LBA because of a geometry problem, you can never read
it.
* stage2/start.S (lba_mode) [NO_BUGGY_BIOS_IN_THE_WORLD]:
Likewise.
assignments received by the FSF.
Jason Thomas was added.
Erich Stefan Boleyn was moved into those who assigned their copyrights.
Gordon Matzigkeit was moved into the others, because he still wasn't listed
in fencepost.gnu.org:/gd/gnuorg/copyright.list.
The remaining problem is that we haven't had copyright assignments of
VaX#8, Heiko Schroeder and Gordon Matzigkeit. As for the first two, Erich
is now trying to contact them by proxy. So I'm just waiting.
As for Gordon.... oh, what are you doing, Gordon?! Hurry up, please!
