Subject: RFC: Remove autoconf support in libftdi-1.x

Hello,

we've supported the autoconf and cmake build system
since quite a while now in parallel.

My current plan is to drop autoconf support
in libftdi-1.x for various reasons:

- cmake syntax is easier to understand and maintain,
  requires less code for common tasks

- it's time consuming to keep two build
  systems in good condition

- cmake configures way faster than autoconf

- two build systems are confusing to new users


Objections?

Cheers,
Thomas
