JTSDK allow building hamlib from JTSDK-QT or JT-MSYS.
However, on Windows 7 64-bit the i/o redirects are causing the command
console to crash when building from JTSDK-QT.
This patch simply removes the input redirect which shouldn't be
necessary.

Note that this patch does not enable builds with whitespace in $SRCDIR
or in `pwd` but it does at least get as far as running configure which
will fail with a meaningful warning about unsafe characters in the
offending paths.
Previously, invoking autogen.sh would create symbolic links to needed
Autotools files in the tree only when working from a Git checkout
(source distributions have the files included). Consideration of this
included the possibility of bugs if the Autotools packages were upgraded
on the developer's system that strange bugs could result. Copying the
files means the tree is self contained until the next time autoreconf or
autogen.sh is run.
The top level Makefile.am included the variable $(subdirs) in both
SUBDIRS and DIST_SUBDIRS assignments. While this variable may contain a
useful value, it is undocumented in the manuals. Relying on it may
result in some directory being ommitted or other changes in the future,
so removing it from the assignments.
Initializing libltdl is now done by the LTDL_INIT macro in configure.ac.
This now creates a libltdl directory in the tree (not tracked in Git)
when autoreconf is run. The downside is that this complicates the build
a little bit with the advantage that the build can now take place on a
system that does not have libltdl-dev installed as Hamlib will build on
such systems by passing the '--with-included-ltdl' flag to the configure
script. In particular, this simplifies the build on Linux for the mingw32
host by not having to run libtoolize manually and assures that libltdl
is built with the same build and host architectures as Hamlib.
Now check if '--with-included-ltdl' has been passed to configure and if
not, only then test for the presence of an installed ltdl.h.
Commented out AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro. It is recommended by the
Automake manual that this macro and its configure options not be used as
the Autotools system is designed to regenerate its files. Let me know
if this is problem as it can be reversed easily enough. The autogen.sh
script no longer passes the '--enable-maintainer-mode' option to
configure when bootstrapping the build system from Git.
Minor edits in configure.ac to improve readability.
Updated build-win32 files in scripts/
Later Autotools documentation prefers the use of autoreconf to generate or
regenerate the configure script. The autoreconf program is responsible
for running the various autotools in a correct order depending on the
macros used in configure.ac.
- autogen.sh: never downgrade our bundled libltdl/ (only run libtoolize if
system version is newer than our bundled version).
- autofixer.sh: script removed as libtool 1.x is no longer allowed.
- configure.ac: (not enabled) optional setting to deprecate embedded libltdl/.

Update:
Add orion.h to Makefile.am and edited README.betatester
and README.developer for clarity (hopefully). Added a
comment to autogen.sh (no command changes).
