Reading leading '0' characters in integers of base 2, 4, 8, 16, or 32
could result in a NUDS with leading zero digits. This is against the
rules. The result was a misbehaving cl_I down the road.

CLN fails to build on s390x and sparc64 as it detects them as 32-bit
architectures, due to __s390__ and __sparc__ matching respectively both
s390 and s390x, and both sparc and sparc64. The patch below fixes the
issue. (Reported as Debian bug#639494.)
Thanks to Aurelien Jarno <aurel32@debian.org>.
The routine scale_float(cl_LF, cl_I) in file cl_LF_scale_I.cc had not
been adapted to 64-bit exponents on systems where uintD is 32 bit.
Reported by Michael Miller <millermj@lemoyne.edu>.
This patch works around problems MSVC has with extern "C" declarations
inside namespace cln. As a result, it should work with MS 32-bit compiler
version 16.00.30319.01.

When we extended immediate types on 64-bit platforms back for CLN
1.2.0, we broke the assumption that integers 2^53..2^55-1 are
bignums. This lead to segfaults when approximating a non-integer cl_RA
to double, as reported by Igor Khavkine <igor.kh@gmail.com>.
Recent GMP multiplication routines (mpn_mul) are somewhat faster than CLN's.
For huge operands, this is due to better tuned FFT. For medium-sized operands
it's due to more algorithms (Toom 3-way.) For small operands, I couldn't find
a difference. Let's just use mpn_mul if it's available.
For huge binsplit sums, this can half the runtimes, on amd64.
Automake adds all kinds of subdirectories to -I, the list of directories
to be searched for header files. However, CLN's header files are not
supposed to be included without the cln/ subdirectory, so adding
-Iinclude/cln can lead to conflicts with other header files. (The
problem at hand was a conflict between CLN's string.h and the C
library's string.h).
Use std::iostream functions instead of EOF and cl_EOF macros.
This enables us to get rid of the freadchar and funreadchar functions.
While at it, removed the extra signatures introduced for CLN-1.2.0
compatibilty. After all, the soname has been bumped.
Also updated largest known Mersenne prime in examples/perfnum.cc.
src/base/cl_version.cc: don't #include "cl_sysdep.h", so the version info
actually gets compiled into the library.
Due to the changes introduced in 7da4d3ae ("build: switch to ordinary auto*
tools system") including "cln/version.h" after "cl_config.h" is no-op (yes,
this is intended).
