The project builds a single standalone binary.
There are no libraries created - be that static or shared ones.
Thus there's no need for libtool.

This is/was necessary only on macOS, because you needed root in order
to read the process list. This was never necessary on Linux, and
it also raises security concerns, so now it needs to be enabled
explicitly at build time.
This will be used when cross-compiling with ncurses*-config generated for the
target, using constructs like
HTOP_NCURSES_CONFIG_SCRIPT=/path/to/ncurses5-config

3 effects in this commit, with the first being the main one:
1. Fix the "`missing' script is too old or missing" warning. See:
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2010-08/msg00108.html>
2. By moving AC_CANONICAL_TARGET down in order, we are now able to
set the directory for auxiliary scripts. For now it's still './'.
I added the line "AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([.])" to show that the directory
change is possible.
3. AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS includes checks from AC_PROG_CC, by moving
the former macro down, we can save size in 'configure' by not
generating repeated checks.
AC_HELP_STRING -> AS_HELP_STRING
AC_TRY_COMPILE -> AC_COMPILE_IFELSE([AC_LANG_PROGRAM([...])],...)
AC_CONFIG_HEADER -> AC_CONFIG_HEADERS
AC_PROG_LIBTOOL -> LT_INIT
Note: There might be more deprecated macros that I haven't noticed.
I just wish to avoid painful highlighting from my text editor (gedit)
that complains about them. :)
* Performance improvements
* Support for splitting CPU meters into two or four columns
(thanks to Wim Heirman)
* Switch from PLPA, which is now deprecated, to HWLOC.
* Bring back support for native Linux sched_setaffinity,
so we don't have to use HWLOC where we don't need to.
* Support for typing in user names and column fields in selection panels.
