Use --disable-static or --disable-shared to build only one flavor
of libraries.
Tested on MacOS, FreeBSD, and CentOS 6 Linux.
Resolves#146.

Note this option only has a long option flag; we're running out of
letters for short options.
Based heavily on a patch submitted in Issue 131 (SCTP support for
iperf); I added support for FreeBSD and did some other packaging and
documentation improvements.
We probably shouldn't tie SCTP support to looking specifically for
Linux or FreeBSD; we probably leave support enabled all the time if
possible, possibly with some configure-time checks.
The main iperf binary is compiled, along with a static libiperf, the unit
tests, and a profiled iperf binary.
The tests, and the profiled iperf binary do not get installed.
To compile, run:
./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make
It has all the normal make options (they come mostly for free). e.g.:
You can run "make install" to install it.
You can run "make dist" which will create a distribution tarball.
You can run "make check" to run all the tests.
I backed up the existing Makefile as "src/Makefile.old" in case folks want to
use that still.
* Added -Wall to CXXFLAGS and CFLAGS. This generated a lot of noise in the
autotools generated files.
* Added initial AUTHORS file. This is incomplete, but it's a start.

* Rework threading. This is done by having a condition variable for the reporting
thread rather than using sched_yield and/or usleep.
* Address performance issues on non Linux systems by avoiding system calls
which are expensive on platforms other than Linux.
* Fixes from FreeBSD ports: max_size_t is now 64 bits and not Iperf does not
exit on ENOBUFS.
