Subject: Compiler checks added to the configure script

To build the software, we need a C/C++ compiler. But until now at configure
time there was no check on this. As a result, when the system didn't have
them, the user would only learn in a crash of the programs.

With this commit, some checks have been added at configure time to do basic
checks and inform the user if necessary.

+Because the project won't be building its own GCC (which includes a Fortran
+compiler), you need to have a Fortran compiler available. Fortran is
+commonly necessary for many lower-level scientific programs. Currently we
+search for 'gfortran'. If you have a Fortran compiler that is not checked,

+Note: GCC will not be built because you are either using the '--host-cc'
+option, or you are using an operating system that currently has bugs when
+building GCC.
