Use automake

Upgrade the build system to use automake instead of only autoconf.

Amongst the enhancements this brings:

 - Build the correct bytecode and/or native code targets automatically.

 - Automake handles: make dist, make install

As a side-effect of making this change, I got rid of the MANIFEST file
(not neeed because automake does 'make dist' for us), and the
ChangeLog (not needed because git).

I also added 'make maintainer-check-extra-dist' which was useful for
identifying all files missing from EXTRA_DIST.

I removed the MinGW target.  We don't use this and it didn't work.

I also removed the ability to compile without ocamlfind, which didn't
work and fixing it would have unnecessarily complicated things.
ocamlfind is widely available.

I also made minor adjustments to the README file.
