Re: patch to add aarch64 to configure

[Daniel Miller <bonsaiviking () gmail com>]

Thanks for this contribution! I looked into it, and it appears our
config.sub and config.guess files were out-of-date throughout our source:

$ find . -name config.guess -o -name config.sub | xargs grep -m1 timestamp
./config.sub:timestamp='2010-09-11'
./config.guess:timestamp='2010-09-24'
./libpcap/config.sub:timestamp='2009-12-31'
./libpcap/config.guess:timestamp='2009-12-30'
./ncat/config.sub:timestamp='2005-04-22'
./ncat/config.guess:timestamp='2005-04-22'
./nping/config.sub:timestamp='2008-01-16'
./nping/config.guess:timestamp='2008-01-23'

I added some Makefile targets to enable us to auto-update these in the
future (make -B configfiles-update) in r34019. In r34020, I applied the
latest updates (2015-01-01), which include support for the aarch64 and
aarch64be machines (64-bit ARM). I would be really interested to hear what
applications you have for running Nmap on this architecture, and any
feedback you have regarding portability!
