Subject: Better explanation in the start of project configuration
When './project configure' is run, after the basic checks of the compiler,
a small statement is printed telling the user that some configuration
questions will now be asked to start building Maneage on the system. Until
now this description was confusing: it lead the reader to think that the
local configuration (which was recommended to read before continuing) is in
another file.
With this commit, the text has been edited to explictly mention that the
description of the steps following this notice should be read
carefully. Thus avoiding that confusion.
This issue was mentioned by Michael R. Crusoe.

Subject: Better description for input data directory, pointing to INPUTS.conf
Until now, the description of the input-data directory at configure time
included a description of the input data (created by reading the values of
'INPUTS.conf'). Maintaining this is easy for a single dataset, but it
becomes hard for a general project which may need many input datasets.
To avoid extra complexity (for maintaining this list), the description now
points a user of the project to the 'INPUTS.conf' file and asks them to
look inside of it for seeing the necessary data. This infact helps with the
users becoming familiar with the internal structure of Maneage and will
allow the authors to focus on not having to worry about updating the
low-level 'configure.sh' script.

Subject: Configure script now accounts for non-interactive shells
The project configuration requires a build-directory at configuration time,
two other directories can optionally be given to avoid downloading the
project's necessary data and software. It is possible to give these three
directories as command-line options, or by interactively giving them after
running the configure script.
Until now, when these directories weren't given as command-line options,
and the running shell was non-interactive, the configure script would crash
on the line trying to interactively read the user's given directories (the
'read' command).
With this commit, all the 'read' commands for these three directories are
now put within an 'if' statement. Therefore, when 'read' fails (the shell
is non-interactive), instead of a quiet crash, a descriptive message is
printed, telling the user that cause of the problem, and suggesting a fix.
This bug was found by Michael R. Crusoe.
