Instead of talking a lot about how to regenerate configure using GNU Autotools, first recommend what we really want people to do: use make regen-configure. Second, mention that it's possible to run Christian's containers to regenerate configure. Lastly, talk briefly about regenerating using autotools directly. (IMO, we should remove that last bit; we just want people to use the containers.)

Thanks for the reviews, Shantanu and Hugo! I made a small change post your approval, @hauntsaninja. You might want to take a look at it before I land this.

Standard reminder: You can directly apply all the suggestions you want in one go by going to Files changed -> Clicking Add to batch on each suggestion -> When done, clicking Commit

A number of minor tweaks and nitpicks, and one potentially non-trivial typo. Otherwise, LGTM

- link to GNU Autoconf
- use modern terminology: pull request iso. patch
- formatting: use default code-blocks
- fix weird phrasing
- fix aclocal name
- as appropriate, not as is appropriate
