build: upgrade soon-to-be-obsolete automake usage
Building with built-from-git automake now fails.
Patch attached. Here's the commit log:
Starting with upcoming automake-1.13, AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE will accept
only one argument, and the old 2-or-more argument form
as used here will be rejected. Instead, use autoconf's
AC_INIT macro to record the package name and version.
Similarly use autoconf's AC_CONFIG_HEADERS macro in place
of automake's obsolete AM_CONFIG_HEADER macro.
In addition, teach contrib/updateVersions.pl how to extract
version string, given the modernized macro usage.
