--enable-maintainer-mode for toplevel

After being bitten by inappropriate timestamps in the top-level
configure file one too many times (and not willing to recommend the
use of gcc's contrib/gcc_update for the src tree), I went ahead and
disabled the timestamp dependencies of the top-level Makefile.in and
configure unless --enable-maintainer-mode (borrowed from automake) is
used.  I'm checking this in mainline.  I considered back-porting this
to 3.3, but the rule to generate Makefile.in is already disabled by
default there, and configure is not generated, so we're ok there.
