Cleanups to the code that detects the amount of RAM and
the number of CPU cores. Added support for using sysinfo() on Linux systems whose libc lacks appropriate sysconf() support (at least dietlibc). The Autoconf macros were split into separate files, and CPU core count detection was moved from hardware.c to cpucores.h. The core count isn't used for anything real for now, so a problematic part in process.c was commented out.

+dnl lc_PHYSMEM - Check how to find out the amount of physical memory
+dnl
+dnl - sysconf() gives all the needed info on GNU+Linux and Solaris.
+dnl - BSDs use sysctl().
+dnl - sysinfo() works on Linux/dietlibc and probably on other Linux systems
+dnl whose libc may lack sysconf().
