Historically we've allowed builds in the main src dir, but meson does
not support this. Explicitly force separate build dir in autotools to
align with meson. We must re-enable dependency tracking which the RPM
%configure macro turns off. Without this, the build dir doesn't get
the source directory tree mirrored.

The README contains a reference to GPL 2.1, which does not exist.
COPYING contains 2.0 so change the README to follow.

Despite being a generated file, HACKING has been tracked in
the git repository along with actual source files. As far as
I'm aware, it's the only generated file for which that happens.
Times and times again, people[1] have committed changes to
the source file without refreshing the generated copy at the
same time.
The rationale for tracking the generated file is to help out
people who just cloned the git repository looking to contribue;
however, README-hacking already contains enough information to
get perspective contributors to a place where they can simply
look at docs/hacking.html instead.

The use of 'git send-email' is described in detail in the
contributor guidelines (docs/hacking.html), which are
mentioned in docs/contribute.html, the non-local version
of which is in turn mentioned in README.

The current README file contents has almost no useful info, and that
which does exist is very outdated.
