Subject: [PATCH] make perl & examples optional

The normal bison program does not require perl to build or run, so lets
soften that requirement in the configure script.  We now warn if its not
found, and we make the examples logic depend on that.

* configure.ac: Change AC_MSG_ERROR to AC_MSG_WARN for perl.
Add an --enable-examples flag.
* Makefile.am: Only include examples/local.mk when ENABLE_EXAMPLES.
