    build: include a dummy config.sub and config.guess in releases

    There is no hard requirement for a config.guess and config.sub script in
    the release tarball. By passing --build=... and --host=... to
    ./configure, the scripts are not executed.  When doing local builds, the
    ./autogen.sh script (by running automake) will place a config.guess and
    config.sub script in the root of the source tree. Upon creation of the
    release ('make dist') tarball, the scripts are replaced by dummy copies
    from the build-aux/ directory.

    The main advantage to not include these scripts in the repository, is
    that there is no need to track upstream updates for them either.
