Configure step: compiler checks done before basic settings
Until now, the project would first ask for the basic directories, then it would start testing the compiler. But that was problematic because the build directory can come from a previous setting (with `./project configure -e'). Also, it could confuse users to first ask for details, then suddently tell them that you don't have a working C library! We also need to store the CPATH variable in the `LOCAL.conf' because in some cases, the compiler won't work without it. With this commit, the compiler checking has been moved at the start of the configure script. Instead of putting the test program in the build directory, we now make a temporary hidden directory in the source directory and delete that directory as soon as the tests are done. In the process, I also noticed that the copyright year of the two hidden files weren't updated and corrected them.
