Luca Boccassi a3272b9372 configure: restore backward compatibility
Commit a9c3d70d90 broke backward compatibility
by making 'configure' error out if parameters are passed, instead of
ignoring them.
Sometimes packaging systems detect 'configure' and assume it's from
autotools, and pass a bunch of options. Eg:

 dh_auto_configure
	./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --includedir=${prefix}/include --mandir=${prefix}/share/man --infodir=${prefix}/share/info --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-option-checking --disable-silent-rules --libdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --runstatedir=/run --disable-maintainer-mode --disable-dependency-tracking

Ignore unknown options again instead of erroring out.

Fixes: a9c3d70d90 ("configure: add options ability")

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm

arpd needs to have the berkeleydb development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdbX.X-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines.  Often this is in the db-devel package.

2. make

The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.

3. include/uapi

This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
if you have special requirements and need to point at different
kernel include files.
