Subject: [PATCH] Fix issue #2: There is no configure binary and get some
 statements while building it.

There's no reason to keep a configure binary in source control. I added the
necessary steps to create it in the README.

+    Configuring after checkout
+    --------------------------
+
+        Under linux, where you download the sources, there's no
+    configure script to run. This is because it isn't a good practice to keep
+    such scripts in a source control system. To create it, you need to run the
+    following commands once, after you checkout the libcpuid sources
+    from github:
+
+        1. run "libtoolize"
+        2. run "autoreconf --install"
+
+        You need to have autoconf, automake and libtool installed.
+
+        After that you can run "./configure" and "make" - this will build
+    the library.
+
+        "make dist" will create a tarball (with "configure" inside) with the
+    sources.
