- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING

Revert "buildconf: use find -execdir"

This partially reverts commit c712009838f44211958854de431315586995bc61.

to make it work with busybox's find, as apparently that's being used.

Configuration files such as curl_config.h and all config-*.h no longer exist
nor are generated/copied into 'src' directory, now these only exist in 'lib'
directory from where curl tool sources uses them.

Additionally old src/setup.h has been refactored into src/tool_setup.h which
now pulls lib/setup.h

The possibility of a makefile needing an include path adjustment exists.
